We have tried several other Mexican restaurants close by and so far this was our best experience yet! Gabriela was an excellent server, so genuinely friendly and helpful. We read reviews of the restaurant or music being overly loud, but that was not our experience at all on a Thursday night. They provide up to 2 complimentary bowls of chips and salsa, where many places only offer 1 or none these days it seems without extra charges. My only wish is that the salsa bowls were larger...
