Perfect neighborhood spot. Good food, friendly service nice ambience. The perfect spot for a delicious meal on a beautiful Friday evening. 
Empanada tasty but clunky, Entrees very good. Wine choices mediocre, and service slow. Noise level High
My blackened fish tacos were delicious. And the cucumber mint soup refreshing. The seasoning was perfect on all.
