I had a feeling this place would not last.

A disgusting thing can be seen in a video: the cook drops the salt in a blender and continues blending instead of throwing away those eggs for blending. That cook thinks he's helping that restaurant but he's bringing it down and he'll never come back, so nasty owner should be do something of your business.

Let's start with the Ambiance. It was so welcoming and vibrant. The dim intimate settings gave a very authentic and calm vibe. My favorite food here was the delectable shrimp tacos with rice and beans. Many places choose the popcorn shrimp. But you can definitely taste the freshness and juicy taste in their shrimp. I will definitely come back. The waitress was so warm and welcoming. Just a different setting for most Mexican places. But It's a must visit.

Ambiance is pitch perfect and it has an impressive selection of agave spirits but the menu itself felt slightly underwhelming

Special Mexican dishes that are hard to find are done exceptionally well. Their drinks are nothing short of perfection. Ideal for a date or special occasion

Great atmosphere and good margs but that’s where the pleasantries ended. Also expensive for what you get. My food came out with very little flavor and had a hair in it… didn’t say anything though. Limited menu and not great service

Amazing service, knowledgeable service staff

Very cool Mexican restaurant haven't been to anything like it before, the decorations and layout are top notch. Food and drinks are a little more expensive than a normal iowa city Mexican restaurant, but the presentation and quality exceeded my expectations!

It doesn't serve, it doesn't have variety, it's very expensive, I ordered a melted cheese and they didn't have a carne azada and they didn't have the micheladas, they don't serve

Ambience was great. Food was okay. Have definitely had better Mexican for less. Quite expensive.
