This place is amazing if you love Tequila!!! Unbelievable selections! Our waiter was very helpful and flexible with the Tequila flights. The Softshell Crab taco appetizer and shrimp ceviche was delicious. The Seabass entree was scrumptious. Delicious Cajeta flan!!! Definitely worth trying!

The salsas alone are worth the trip. Tortillas handmade on the premises are delicious. The recently expanded menu means everyone finds what they want. Taco Tuesday is a fantastic bargain. Fish tacos are sublime and made with high quality fish. My mate loves the steak and also fried chicken tacos. Shrimp Diablo was yummy. Love this place.

First time but not the last time. Delicious food, great service, nice vibe, live music, excellent drinks, and fair price. This is authentic Mexican cuisine, not Americanized. It was a special night!
