Veryyyy pretty restaurant !! There is both indoor and outdoor seating, and the waiters were very nice. They forgot our utensils at first but it was busy so not a big deal. Food was pretty good and they gave us extra chips for no charge :) price is decent as well. I would say though that the accessibility isn’t great, you have to go all the way up stairs for the bathroom which could be a challenge if you are elderly or disabled , unless there was an elevator I didn’t see
The food is amazing , the young woman on the phone was nice, thank you
The service here was amazing, we were promptly seated, promptly served, and promptly brought drinks. Our food came out quickly and our chips and salsa were replenished quickly when we needed more. There were a variety of vegetarian options though many included mushrooms (I have an allergy) and many included cheese/weren't vegan, but I dont think that's unexpected for a mexican restaurant. I did find it to be pricey compared to other restaurants in the area. This was somewhat compensated for in the portion sizes, which were generous, however I found the rice and beans to be somewhat bland. Regardless, I'd like to return and give another dish a try! Vegetarian options: I was impressed with the variety of vegetarian options available, most mexican places offer bean and spinach enchiladas and maybe tacos, but here there were burritos, tacos, enchiladas, tostadas, fajitas etc. to chose from!
