My boyfriend took me here for our 3rd anniversary last week and it was spectacular. Absolutely packed on a weeknight and we can see why. Hanna was super warm & friendly and gave us wonderful service

Myself and a couple friends chose this place to come and celebrate a special occasion and enjoy some yummy food. Unfortunately, the couple next to us joined in our conversation with the server and began to berate everyone in our vicinity with absolutely heinous commentary and words I will not type simply because we were not from Idaho. Not only was this man rude to us, fellow patrons of the business, but also to waitstaff. What is truly disappointing in this situation, other than the unacceptable behavior from the table next to us, was the lack of presence from management. When something happens like this, the expectation is that management will get involved to tell the party at fault that they are not to behave like that in their restaurant. Management was nowhere to be found. We will not be returning to this restaurant, which is a shame because the food and service were wonderful. But to pay over 100 dollars for a dinner and have the staff allow behavior like that to happen and continue, is unacceptable.

Molcate is cool and quesadilla is really great.

A great evening. Good food and service. Lots of choices for appetizers. Definitely recommend the octopus.

Great place in downtown Boise!

Our server was super nice. When we first came in the music was a bit loud for our baby. We ordered the "Table for 2" and the meat had a smoky and burnt taste to it. Strange. Though the plate was giant the amount of food was actually very small. Also crab was part of the meal but they did not give to us. Overall, okay experience, maybe don't bring kids under 2 here as they are a bit too young.

The service was outstanding! Our server, Anna, was one of the best servers we’ve had in a long time. She made us want to come back.
Unfortunately, the food was a let down. For the price, I would have expected a much more premium Mexican themed food experience. The chips are not warmed. The enchiladas were cold and barely had any sauce. All you could taste were the corn tortillas. The $60 ribeye steak was severely undercooked, cold to the touch in the middle, and not trimmed at all. It was almost 50% fat. I understand that it’s a ribeye and some fat is necessary for flavor, but this was overwhelmingly unpleasant.
Hoping they make their food better to match the incredible atmosphere and service!

Always a family favorite! The variation is great and the flavors amazing... love how fresh everything is... drinks are delicious and make for endless laughter while you've got great music (we've gotten the live DJ a couple times too).

Anna made us feel like we were ever only table during a busy evening. 10/10 service and 10/10 food.

This was my first visit, and I can confidently say it was the best restaurant meal I've ever had. I tried the Yucatán pork chop, and it was absolutely delicious—juicy and packed with flavor. The rice had a rich, smoky depth to it, which was incredible, and the beans were full of taste. The stuffed chili was also fantastic. We enjoyed a couple of cocktails— a classic margarita and the Wildcat—both were excellent.

Some dishes are decent, but way, way overpriced for what you get. The plating and quality of food for many of the entrees is similar to any chain Mexican restaurant but priced at $40 instead of ~$15. Service was okay but it took a long time to get our food, ended up being there about 2 hours total. Atmosphere is nice-ish. Wouldn't go back.
