    Excellent across the board. Always love the cocktails (especially A La Playa and Carajillo) and bone marrow tacos. The Enfrijolada was a delightful surprise that I would absolutely order again.

    Food is phenomenal, definitely worth going to. Service is dreadful. Seated 20 minutes after reservation, after appetizers, entrees came out 30 minutes after. Almost a 3 hour dinner!

    We visited for the first time for my partners birthday and we really enjoyed. We were hoping to sit outside but as it happens we got a table next to one of the retractable doors and so had virtually the same experience and it felt amazing. The staff was super helpful and just the right level of attentiveness. The food was great too.

    The overall experience was incredible. The server was knowledgeable about the menu and helpfully attentive in every way. The food was spectacular and well presented by staff who exported the plates to our table with warmth and joy.
