    Oh my gosh, where do I start! First off, so super cute. The ambiance is sweet and feels like a little slice of magic. This was my first time here. We came to celebrate my birthday, there were 7 of us. We got seated right away in a comfortable area with enough space to enjoy ourselves. Abraham was wonderful in getting us started with our orders! We ordered the Pear and Brie pizza ( yummm) , the lamb hummus, the Chilaen sea bass, omg, so good, the petite filet, mac and cheese, and more. Michael was out server, he also took such great care of us. I could eat here every night and not tire of it. The food was delicious, the desert. The BEST Cake is out of this world and service impeccable. Well done Bacari!

    Our services was great. Server was extremely kind and the food tasted amazing and came out very quickly. Our seating area was a bit cramped but the overall aesthetic and atmosphere of the place wasn’t ruined. Would eat here again 100%

    Taste of the food and service were great! It is an open floor plan restaurant in the lobby of a hotel, so can get loud when a convention or conference is in the city. Hope my leftovers are just as good as eating there!

    We went to Aro Latin before the UCLA game at the Rose Bowl. The tacos were so delicious, we had to order another round. Margaritas were amazing. Staff was incredibly friendly. Will definitely go back!
