Ambiance was great as well as service. However, I don’t personally believe the food was the best. We had the al pastor and gobernador tacos; felt like they needed “that extra kick.” Saw many great reviews about the empanadas; they were mid! Drinks were decent. Our favorite was the tamarind one. Dessert! The churros looked great, but again, not impressed. Overall, just an okay place. Would we be back? Probably just for the drinks and awesome service!

I saw that they were listed as having pescatarian, vegan and vegetarian options so I wanted to check it out. The drink choices available was a small list, but mighty. The drinks were fabulous. La Reforma and Coco de oro were so tasty. The food choices available, so much of it had dairy. The one appetizer that didn’t have dairy/vegan was the guacamole and salsa trip. The guacamole and chips were a disappointment. The chips tasted stale and guacamole was bland. The empanadas all had cheese in them. That is what my husband was looking forward to having until we learned it had cheese in all of the choices. I’ve seen a lot of the reviews talk about how chewy the tuna and salmon tostadas are. However, the tuna was not chewy and it tasted fantastic. The choices for dessert were good, but again no non-dairy option. The dos leches was very tasty. For what you got it felt very overpriced. Overall, if you don’t have any allergies, this place is awesome for groups and for drinks and appetizers.

We were very underwhelmed. The food was bland and our waitress wasn’t very attentive (we watched waiters at other tables and they were amazing…). Ambience was good!
