Came in on a Saturday for dinner, it was busy but we waited the 45 min wait to get a table. We were seated and taken out drink order along with our food since we knew what we wanted to eat. 40 min passed by and we still didn’t have our food. We saw a couple other tables that got there after us get their food so we decided to ask how much longer. The waiter gave us excuses and went to check on our food. 20 more min passed by and we decided to leave. We got up and paid for our drinks and that’s when the waiter showed up with our food claiming it had only been ‘15 minutes’. He tried to excuse himself again blaming it on the kitchen. It was clear he had probably forgotten about us. We wasted about two to two hours and half in this restaurant to just drink a couple of drinks. Truly a very disappointed experience and will probably never be back.

We love this place so much that we ate here three meals straight. Great views, food, and staff. Hector (the server) is the best, and the grilled chicken, mashed potatoes, and chile verdes enchiladas are what we recommend!

We are local and this this is the first time we have eaten here! We went for our anniversary and we really liked it a lot! Very nice dining atmosphere, staff are nice and food was really good! Portions are large, prices are good and fair for the quality and amount of food you get. I tried some of my husband's steak fajitas and it was very tender and seasoned well. And...they did not charge us a fee for using our debit card. The fee is only charged if you use a credit card. That was a nice surprise! More restaurants need to follow their lead on that part! We will for sure be back! Totally recommend!

I had the taco plate one with shrimp steak and salmon. The tacos were super loaded with food. I sat outside next to the water and it was a very enjoyable experience, I would come back.

All the food we had was wonderful. Our server was also great. I had the grilled fish taco and a steak taco and both were great.

This plaza offer a few breakfast, lunch and dinner options. I came here twice because I really enjoyed my lunch and came back the next day for dinner! The tuna tostada is delicious!
Empanadas were ok, I wouldn’t other them again.
Drinks were good I would order them again.
Mahi was dry.. wouldn’t recommend.
I came twice.. I would say a 4 rating it’s more than fair, because the ambient was nice and service was good.

The only complaint I have is my steak was a bit over cooked. I asked for med rare and got med well. It was still delicious. We will definitely be coming back!

Wow. Just wow. Culinarily speaking wow. I’ve tried a lot of “spin on Mexican food” places and this is the only one that hits the standard of amazing. The tacos were so good. Every dish was not just beautiful it tasted amazing. Hats off to the chef. Seriously. 10/10 oh and the adorable waitress was so sweet and kind even though she was running crazy. She was fantastic.

This is the second time in 3 days we’ve stopped in for food. Quality food and ingredients, loved the explosion of flavors! Tonight we had the side of guacamole, enchilada verde and a shrimp taco with a side of the very unique poblano creamed corn!
So fun!

Food and atmosphere were great, but the service at this location needs a little work. I always try to give the benefit of the doubt because you never truly know what is going on behind the scenes, but our poor young waiter was either new or not trained very well. Sadly, it felt like he just didn't really know how to provide customer service beyond seating us and taking our orders which were incorrect, incomplete, and slow to arrive to the table.
