“Amazing! The chicken was top notch, the yellow rice and the beans fantastic! What really stood out was the customer service. Joe the owner came out and greeted the customers. You don’t find that kinda service anymore. 10/10 would recommend it! Will be going back again and again!“

“We had such a great experience! The food was amazing, and the chilaquiles were definitely my favorite—they were so flavorful, perfectly cooked, and absolutely delicious.

“My husband has been saying he wanted to try Brazas for several weeks, and we finally made it in. We enjoyed incredible food, a wonderful mimosa bar and phenomenal service. I was literally texting friends and family giving them a play by play of our experience. Hands down the best customer service we’ve experienced locally in quite some time. We will definitely be back on a regular basis!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Amazing Experience with Chef Lino & His Crew! Chef Lino and his team did an amazing job at my 48 Trips Around the World birthday party! From beginning to end, everything was handled professionally, and the food and service helped make the evening truly special. 🌎✈️🥂 A huge shout-out to Kalli, our server! She was busy from setup all the way through cleanup, making sure all five food stations stayed stocked, organized, and hot throughout the evening. She was friendly, attentive, and always checking to make sure everyone had what they needed. Her hard work definitely did not go unnoticed! ❤️ And Kristen, our bartender, was the STAR of the night! 🍹👏🏽 I gave her quite the assignment with five different signature cocktails—one for each destination—and she executed them to perfection! She kept up with the bar all night, made each specialty drink beautifully, and kept our First Class passengers very happy. 😂🥂 Thank you Chef Lino, Kristen, Kalli, and the entire crew for helping bring my vision to life. The food, drinks, and service were a huge part of what made my birthday celebration such a success. I would absolutely recommend Chef Lino and his team for your next event and would gladly use them again! ❤️👏🏽 Great food + great drinks + great service = an unforgettable night! 🥳🎉“

“I want to start off by saying that apart from being a beautiful restaurant that the food and drinks at this place are amazing! The enchiladas suizas are by far the best that I have tasted at any restaurant. Unfortunately the last few times I’ve gone the service is terribly slow. I last went on 2/18 in a group of 14 for a birthday and it was super irritating that the whole dining experience took approximately 3 hours. Our reservation was at 8:30pm and we left at almost 11:30pm. It took about 15 minutes from being sat to be approached by the server to order drinks. Those of us who ordered alcoholic drinks waited another 30 minutes or so for the drinks to come from the bar. Seems like the only way to get a quick drink is to actually sit at the bar. I’ve gone both In large groups or just with my partner and it seems that no matter what the service is just slow in general.“
