We randomly came across this restaurant after church on a sunday. It was empty, and I had to ask if they were open and the hostess was very inviting and encouraged us to take a seat. The ambiance was beautiful!!! Decorated for Christmas, lighting, trees, tvs all had cozy Screensavers, the elder server that took care of us was warm & inviting. He constantly checked on us and the kids, offered suggestions from the menu and patiently answered our questions. Restrooms were CLEAN! Big plus, but service was just all around great.

The caldo de res was served in a huge shareable bowl FYI. Thought $25 was a bit pricey until I seen the bowl. Ordered the kids waffles and it was enough to share as well. Big portions. Shrimp Empanadas were so good! Highly recommend.

First off… bottomless mimosas. Next, friendly service. Then the delicious grill smells made me want to order all the meats. BTWs… the all meat omelet 🤤 I went with the chicken enchiladas with a side of steak, rice, and beans.

The food took forever, was very bland, and ended with police involvement after they served a 12 year old alcohol. The owner is a joke and refused to apologize or do anything to make it right. It’s honestly a wonder this place is still open.

This place is definitely an Instagram worthy establishment. One of those here for a good time, not a long time business.

The menu is eclectic. I understand that it's supposed to be fusion but the menu isn't well thought out and is all over the place. Like is this place an American steakhouse? Is it upscale Mexican? And while they were at it, throw some Columbian and Italian dishes on the menu for good measure.

The food itself is fine but I was not blown away. It was just alright. There wasn't a lot to say about it

The service was just alright. While we were there, the place had 4 tables, including us, on a Saturday early evening. They had what we thought were managers flirting with each other only and doing nothing else, and then 4 other employees just standing around. For the lack of customers, and prices they are charging, I expected better service. The server never really checked on us during our meal or communicated that one of the items we ordered was still coming.

Pretty much the experience wasn't bad, but it wasn't good either. It was just average.
