Not recommended. An hour for the tacos to be made and there were almost no people. The beer is served in a nice but small glass and in general the quality/price ratio is very bad.
Not to mention the service, it is from average to bad. Be careful because in the end they tell you that the terminal does not work and that they only receive cash or dollars. Fortunately I already know that story and I told him that if it wasn't by card I had no other way to pay. Magically the terminal worked. I guess it works with other clients, the truth is it's just a tourist trap and it's not that bad that they're just looking for something to profit from.
I was left hungry.

Well, where to begin. Probably with pros, because it’s just one - location. That’s it.
Now moving on.
First is the food, probably the worst Mexican food I ever had in all the countries I’ve visited. The dish we ordered for my daughter was an easy version of ACP with only rice and chicken, it wasn’t on the menu, but the waiter said it wasn’t a problem. Well, they changed us $199 for it, which is ridiculous, especially because it was awful. We didn’t even get a fork, so I had to go and ask for it. The chicken was so dry, I couldn’t break it into smaller pieces without a knife. The rice was very plain. In short, my daughter ate two forks of rice and refused the rest.
For my brother’s order, we had to wait 30 minutes to hear that they couldn’t make it and he had to choose something else. After waiting another 20 minutes, he finally got his entree, but ate only a half because it just wasn’t that good.
My fish tacos were dry and plain, my husband’s fajitas arrived with more dry chicken and decent pico de gallo (the star of the show).
Now to the worst.
They tried to overcharge us. Twice. First by saying their credit card terminal wasn’t working (“We don’t know why”), and we needed to use an ATM downstairs, which conveniently gives you only USD. The price in the bill was in two currencies, and the USD version was $17(25%) more.
My husband went to a nearby supermarket to use another ATM (with pesos). While he was out, my brother noticed that they overcharged us for two different items by 20 pesos each. It’s not much, but come on! When we pointed it out to the waiter, he said he gave us an old menu, after few minutes he said: “it is my second day on this job”…
It really bothers me, because with such a nice location, even without doing anything with the interior of the place, they could have had decent food and service, especially for the price.

Huge disappointment. The location is beautiful, on a nice terrace with a great view of the center of town. That’s the only plus, unfortunately. This might have been the worst Mexican food I’ve had in any country, including a few in Eastern Europe and Asia. (And this is Mexico!) The chicken for my fajitas was dry and flavorless, not even as good as Taco Bell on a bad day, like when it’s been left out for way too long. My wife’s fish tacos were flat-out gross. Our margaritas were watery.
Prices were ridiculously high, but they also “accidentally” padded the price of 2 drinks and 1 entree, adding 40 pesos to our bill. The waiter kept trying to take the menus back when he saw us adding up the prices on our phones. The real scam was telling us their credit card terminal was broken and directing me to a specific ATM downstairs. Our bill showed the price in pesos, about 80 USD, and in US dollars, $98. That’s a 25% premium for paying in dollars, but why would they even quote us a price in USD at all? Aren’t we in Mexico? Turns out, this conveniently located ATM only dispenses USD. (?!?!) Probably for another ridiculous fee (fortunately I knew the area well enough and went to a real ATM at a nearby supermarket).
My advice to anyone who’s here for a while: wait for this place to go out of business—shouldn’t take long—and then give the next restaurant that opens here a fair shot. Hopefully they’ll learn from the previous tenant and work hard to serve quality food at a fair price. This location deserves no less.

this place is specific…
the dishes are served bland and sometimes without the main ingredients indicated in the menu.
the wait for an order is long, 30 minutes after ordering they can come and say that the item is out of stock
overprice! for dry chicken with rice you will pay 200 pesos.
the atmosphere is strange, sometimes music is turned on and then you can’t hear the person sitting next to you… why?
also manipulations with the check were noticed, be careful!

We had an ok dinner here. We were the only family there (we were 14 people) but it took forever to get the food (90 minutes before everyone got their food). We had young kids and they played jenga but there were open wires hanging around and near puddles of water and light sockets plugged in with no bulb so stressful as a mom. Not prices were also quite high for the food we got.

The tacos had good flavor, they were delicious, but the service was very, very, very slow, it took more than 40 minutes to serve us.
Although they were very friendly, the cook talked more than cooked.

We watched the guy preparing the food sweat into the food. Everything was prepackaged and not fresh. Margarita was ok

Overpriced for the service and the food, one of us got a really good Daiquiri but the tacos were bland, the service was haphazard even though we were only ones there, and though the storefront says gourmet, the abience, menu etc was anything but. It looked liek what we would expect from taco stand or street food however there were no locals eating there, and the price was more than some beachfront places

My friend and I went based on a recommendation. The food was bland and tasteless. We had to ask for salsa. The server Lola was clearly drunk and the portions are small. She yelled at us if we wanted more drinks. Will not go back.

The service was prompt and polite. But the prices were insane and it all seemed sketchy. There was another location across the road maybe it was a knockoff but I won't be going to either now because of the experience.

I thought the tacos were very expensive, they weren't bad in flavor but the order is supposedly for 4 tacos and you get 2 tacos for $200 pesos, I really wouldn't go back
