Very nice place to get breakfast with a wonderful interior. This was probably the best omelette I've had in a long time. The classic breakfast was pretty good as well. Additionally got the horchata latte that was good.

This place is perfect for any event! The ambiance was relaxing, comfortable, and very aesthetic. The food was so filling (I didn’t actually expect such a large serving for the second course). Their churros were awesome. I would love to go back on other days for their comida corrida. Superb! Will definitely recommend this to other foodies! Had a great corporate year-end party. Thank you!

Menu is a bit complicated, and the dishes came out a bit sporadic but overall tasty stuff.. loved the guacamole, salsa tasting was nice, and the duck tacos were a hit. Wasn't a fan of the Scallop crudo as it was very sauce heavy and overpowered the scallops. Cod was really good. Our server was wonderful and attentive. The decor is pretty too..

Excellent food, excellent service. The salsa tasting was an adventure from mild to hot. They have one of the better guacamoles I’ve had. The highlight for us was the ceviche. The shrimp and veggies with salsa and aioli, all on a light and crispy flour chiccarón. The Barbacoa de Borrego lamb shank was cooked to tender and full of flavor. Served with warm tortillas to make your own tacos. I will definitely try this restaurant again.

First restaurant we went to on our trip, which was pet friendly and had a great staff. I believe our server's name was Casey, and 10/10 service! He gave great recommendations, and I definitely recommend trying the fried Oaxaca cheese to start off. I really loved the tacos de carnitas de pulpo as well. As far as drinks, we got a mojito and the red sangria, which were delicious! The balance of flavors worked perfectly with each dish, so I definitely recommend checking this place out if you're in the area.
