I want to commend Andres the manager who was there this past Saturday. Me and my friend got there by 900 p.m. and most tables were reserved. We did find a table, but I asked Andres to please let us know when there was a table closer to the stage. Andres provided Excellent Customer Service I want to thank you again!

Custom ordered. A simple fish sandwich, ended up being the best fish sandwich I ever had. Custom made jalapeno tartar sauce. Super happy with the entire experience, staff above and beyond, excellent in every way. Made me feel like royalty!

It was ok, the service was decent but the food was a little disappointing for Mexican cuisine in San Diego. My wife’s quesadilla was good but my carnitas tacos were tougher than leather, like they overcooked them the day before and then microwaved them for me. And the prices are very high, paid over $8 for a draft Modelo, there’s too many better options out here for Mexican food.
