We had a lovely meal. We decided to do all 3 restaurant week menus. We also ordered a few regular menu items. Such a good atmosphere and a fun tasting. The fish was fresh and lovely So much flavor! We will go back. This is a great special dinner place with so much character
Just finished Sunday brunch. It was amazing! My favorites where: tamale, lamb with mole, oysters, flan, pistachios dessert. Everything had delicious flavors. Nothing was too spicy. I would tell my Mom, who can’t handle any spice, she would have a ton of options. Cucumber lime aqua fresca was amazing too! Oh and the hot chocolate was a must have as well!
Great ambiance, service and drinks. Unfortunately the food warrants a 3 star review. We ordered the ceviche which I would rate a 3 star, the pozole a 2 star and the shrimp plate a 2 star. There wasn’t much taste to these dishes though they come out looking very pretty/ upscale. I see many recent reviews agree the food is not as good as you would expect for the location, ambiance and price. If we come back it’ll be for the drinks and not so much the food.
