We came here for our monthly family dinner night. We wanted to try a new spot. Ambiance - Cute. Really liked the seafood art in the walls. And the smell when you first walked in was incredible. We knew we were going to eat well. Food/Drinks - Hubby and I really enjoyed our drinks. I got La dama. He got the mango mojito. And my daughter also liked her strawberry lemonade. My favorite thing was the corn salad, but it was hard to pick a favorite because everything was so good! Service - 10/10. Everyone was so attentive and they made sure I got good footage for my blog. They kept our glasses full as well. Overall, try this place out! The flavors and customer service are truly amazing. They're going to need a bigger location soon!

On a very sunny day 70 degrees it wasn't any customers. The bartender was our server upon other customers arriving he had to do dual roles. The Birria Goat Tacos was my favorite excellent from bite to bite. The seafood enchilada was good it was more dip to us requiring some chips. Halibut dish was average needed a little more seasoning. Overall it was good

An amazing little restaurant in Columbia Heights that doesn't get enough hype. The food was excellent, freshly made and surprisingly delicious. The staff were friendly and attentive. Can't wait to go back.

I don't have the words. Three tables in the place and took20 mins for chips and salsa. 15 mins to get a drink. Burritos served with French fries?! The food was mediocre at best and it was over 90 min dining time for Mexican food. Took 20 mins for more chips with the salsa and guac. The place was dead. We drove in from downtown excited to dine here, was so disappointed. No clue how this place has such a high rating. Buyer beware.

I stumbled upon this hidden gem looking for food and I am glad that I did! The atmosphere is beyond beautiful! The food is fantastic! The drinks are suburb using fresh ingredients. I had the pleasure of sitting with Sebastián at the bar and his service is exceptional. This is hands down one of the best Mexican restaurants I have been to in a very long time. I will definitely be back! Don't hesitate! This is a must try!!!!

Stopped in for lunch and found it to be a great addition to the neighborhood. Kind and attentive service and food was delicious - we enjoyed the ceviche and mole tacos especially.
We had a reservation on a Saturday - it wasn’t super busy, started to get busier around 8-830. Overall the food was solid - guac was great, chickens tacos were solid, chicken enchiladas were quite good and the carne asada was solid. Churros were great. Drinks were good, takes awhile to get them but they were solid. The service was ok, it seemed like they had one person doing the whole place which would be a challenge for anyone. Seems more authentic than your traditional Tex mex joint.

Seems like a really good Mexican place that has yet to be discovered by locals. When we went we were the only ones in which is usually a bad sign. I'm glad we gave it a shot as everything was tasty and well presented. The service was a touch slow but very friendly and helpful. Additionally very accommodating of children.
