Service was good, nice location and the inside is fine enough. Food wasn't bad but it wasn't great either. Out of the few fishes we tried they were all sort of lacking. It wasn't bad, just not great.

Great service time. Sit down resturant. Outdoor seating is available. We got the spinach quesidilla, vegetarian tostada and enchiladas.

Vegetarian options: There are plenty of options for vegetarians. One of our friends is vegetarians and she enjoyed it there.
August 2024
This was a really great restaurant with excellent Mexican cuisine. The chips and salsa were amazing as was the sangria. The main meals were tasty with a little sassiness from the gentle peppers.
