There were a lot of food choices… most of the items were marked, but they did not explain what they contained. I eat chicken and fish, but things were marked as potatoes, but when I asked a worker, I was notified that it actually contain chorizo. It would be nice if there was a way to know what type of meat was in the item. Also, I noticed most things were beef and pork, and only a couple things with chicken. All of the fish items contained shrimp, which I am allergic to.  the restaurant was very loud but that’s a given for a holiday Sunday! I thought maybe they would have mariachis but there were none during our 12–1 30 window.  Our server was very quick to refill mimosas.  the taco bar was great and the homemade tortillas were good but wish they would’ve been corn and not flour!
