    Had a reservation on Valentine's day. I'm not sure if this is common practice but the hostess sat us at a shared table even though we had a reservation. Maybe that's just how they do things but we did not like that since there were open private tables

    It was a fake Mexican restaurant, the menu was all Mexican food with absolutely bland taste , no real flavor , the salsa was absolutely not spicy at all . But our waitress was really nice
