I attended a Saturday night bachata lesson and social at Rubens. The entry fee came with a free drink, I ended up getting the mango flavored margarita with Tajin rim. Tasty drink and friendly service, as for the dance lesson it was a bit tricky maneuvering in the odd shaped space. However instructor and attendees were helpful and very friendly, would come back again!

Even the music they play really transports you to Mexico.

And even the owner Ruben was helping out on giving shots great atmosphere and great music to dance...
