My first time here was an experience. The establishment was decorated to the T with such vibrant colors and great decorations. Each way you turn there would be something that catches your eye. We ate the Birria tacos and the lamb which was moderate. The service was incredible. Every worker there was so friendly and helpful. I was told that the nightlife there was good so I can’t wait to check it out. The parking is a bit hard around that area so thankfully they offered valet.

Overall amazing experience! We went on a Saturday evening and Larry was so hospitable and even gave me a tour of the different areas. The food, drinks and music were all great. We’ll definitely be back.

We ordered the birria nachos, the birria tacos and tacos al pastor. The nachos were better than the tacos, very bland even the consume tasted watered down. The drinks on the other hand were very good, the passion fruit mojito was delicious and the coco loko had a nice kick to it. Only recommend if you wanna post stuff on your social media. Also tip was automatically included.

Yesterday I went to eat for the first time with my family and we ordered sangria and there wasn't any, then we ordered Miller Lite beer and there wasn't any, we ordered a food dish called Street Fries and there wasn't any, we ordered another dish called Tijuana Platter and there wasn't any and in the end We asked for ketchup and there was none. We liked the music but it was a little loud and we couldn't talk without shouting. I don't know if it was the wrong day to go but we really weren't lucky to get what we wanted. So I don't recommend it, if what happened to us always happens.

Beyond Nachos were dry and cold. No sauce. My food literally cold. The corn appetizer was nice but the corn was cold on one side like it was heated in the microwave. There was NO SEASONING IN ANY OF THE DISHES.The waiter handed me my to go dessert before I was even done with my appetizer. For what the flan cost should have not be just cut from the fridge. The waiter waited for us to finish writing down the TIP after he offers the pen up for us to sign.

Food was amazing service okay but the atmosphere was not it. The music was awful. How are you guys a Mexican place playing Jamaican- Brazil music. This was not it!!

The food and atmosphere are excellent. However, their drink prices are a bit high. You will be paying Manhattan prices for drinks. Bring cash because their ATM will charge you $6.00, for it's use.

The drinks were good, the music too. Ordered the steak for my entree and it came out cold. Had to wait a bit more to get cutlery to start eating it and found myself leaving it unfinished .

Great atmosphere! We were seated quickly in the covered outside area. You can smoke and have a hookah! Ventilation was excellent. But from there it took almost 30 minutes to get a drink order in. Glad we ordered a pitcher of sangria, didn’t have to wait for a waiter to stop by…Another 40 minutes till entree arrived. I ordered a carne asada.I ordered medium rare, it was medium to medium well. Small bowl of blacks beans, they were ok and large scoop of white rice and a weeee bit of salsa. Would not order again.My friend ordered the Peixe Frito. And absolutely loved it!! She will return for the fish, I may just stick with a drink!

The place is visually beautiful, I was there for 15 minutes, the same time I spent at the table waiting for someone to arrive to serve me. TheThe table where they placed me was near the entrance, super cold. Nobody came to assist me. I got up and left. An important fact is that I only spent 25 dollars that they charge for parking, they don't have this advertised anywhere so just so you know. So in conclusion I can only evaluate the service as terrible.

This is by far one of my favorite brunch spots. I’ve been here numerous times and the staff and service never disappoints!!!!! I had a brunch party yesterday and they accommodated all 25 of my guests so effortlessly! See you all very soon again!
