    We walked up and saw a line waiting to get in but we luckily had a reservation and were seated almost immediately. We received waters and were able to place our orders pretty quickly, but our food took a little bit to get to us. We weren’t in too much of a hurry, and the manager and waiter both came by to apologize for the delay which was nice. Overall the food was good. Margarita was pretty light on the tequila - it was alright - pretty expensive for what you get really. Chips and guacamole were excellent - though not really a fan of their house salsa personally (but others liked it). A fun little place to eat on Coronado Island. Great location. Cute atmosphere. A little pricey but overall good place.

    Had the vegetarian sweet potato bowl and it was amazing! The fusion of flavors is hard to be and the quality of food is excellent. Husband had fajitas and despite being a smaller portion he felt the quality and flavors were amazing and would order them again! The tres leches is potentially the best we’ve had! The service this time around was excellent- waiter friendly. Made mom feel special for her bday w a card, happy wishes and a nice desert! Planning to return

    Love this place. Food is great, service is friendly and attentive. It has become one of our favorite restaurants on the island and in general. Our only complaint is the noise level. Hopefully they will do something about it soon.

    Can’t miss with this Coronado location! The restaurant is open on two sides, with twinkly lights,and outdoor heaters, with the cool vibe of downtown Coronado. The city was already decorated for Christmas so the whole atmosphere was really festive. My husband’s shredded beef tacos were over salted. They immediately offered another dish, and removed them from the bill without being asked. Note that the other 4 people in the party loved their meals. It’s the enchilada sauce that keeps bringing me back!
