This is a nicely decorated restaurant serving Americanized versions of various Mexican dishes. Nonetheless, the food is very good and freshly prepared. Our server was very helpful to a couple of newcomers and her recommendations were spot on. I really enjoyed my lobster enchiladas, the black beans and rice were also excellent. My companion's cilantro chicken was fine but not as good as my enchiladas. Her "Mexican" rice was quite good and the refried beans on her...

I was very impressed by how good the food was!

The service was amazing, really fast, really friendly, and we had some nice conversations!

The interior is lovely and has a nice vibe

This place is always a great choice for Mexican food. The tableside salsa/guacamole preparation is a nice touch. The food always tastes great.
We had a party of ~16 that they were able to accommodate. With a party size that large, there will inevitably be some issues, but in my other experiences, service is always on point.
