What can I not say. The food was top tier and the service was great as well. We ordered the fish tacos, Al pastor wings, and langostinos. Will be back to try other things on the menu as well. Also not to be missed, the drink menu was extremely flavorful and well balanced.

Stopped in on a Saturday just after opening and we were seated immediately. Menus via QR code but we had limited service so they offered us physical versions.
We shared the tampiquena and pollito ahogado. The skirt steak was excellent and perfectly juicy and tender. I also loved the enchiladitas! The stuffed grilled chicken breast is flattened and although cooked well, had a slightly odd taste paired with prosciutto. Rice, beans, and spiral cut papa fritas were all delicious too.
Overall we really enjoyed our meal!

You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu as everything is delicious. I dream of their wings often - they are one of a kind. I recommend ordering them extra crispy.
We ended our meal on a sweet note with the churros and flan. 🍮
We can’t wait to go back.

Pulpo Asado and the Stuffed Pina (a pineapple half sliced lengthwise, stuffed with the freshest seafood and melted cheese) are the two dishes that stood out among the diverse offerings. The nine people in our group each ordered different dishes so we could try as much food, and each dish we tried was absolutely bursting with flavor! The neighborhood was bustling and the crowd was energetic. And of course, the warm and welcoming staff was just awesome.

It was a cool place, food was great, had appetizers and they were delicious, definitely try the wings and flautas, only con was the horchata, it was missing some canela and Leche, so it was a bit blander than other places but not bad, Jamaica was good too, and the floutas were delicious as well!

I'm very happy I was able to check out this restaurant! The customer service was excellent, and the food was amazing. I only sampled almost all of the appetizers, and they were all excellent! I'll have to return to sample their major courses!

The food was good but the serving of the food was to overpriced to what we got . The steak tacos are delicious. They took forever to get our food and it was not overcrowded.
