    We had a reservation for 2 for Valentines Day and at the last moment, some friends asked to join us. Not only did MS accommodate us, they gave us the coziest wraparound booth way back in the corner away from the bustle. It was perfect! Our waiter, Brian, was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Brian was delightful. Each couple split the Seafood Paella and it was fantastic. The whole experience was amazing and highly recommended!

    Anyone who has been to Cabo or PVR has tasted the greatness that is a Birria Taco. This place takes it up a notch .... they offer queso birria which just might be a little bit of heaven with a cup of sauce for dipping. Even our picky eater loves the queso birria taco. Bonus ... the fries covered in queso with steak bites. Service was spot on and ready with a drink refill before we even asked. Highly recommend!

    Great place to eat, the food was wonderful. It did take a while for the server to stop by the table at first, but was very attentive after that. It was very loud, but with hard surfaces all around it would be hard to be more quiet. .
