    We were looking for a place to eat late and on open table the restaurant was listed as open until midnight. So we made a reservation for 11:30.. On their front door, they we listed as open till midnight. On their voicemail, open till midnight. We show up for our reservation and the restaurant is completely closed. We call the restaurant and get sent a text with an email to reach out to (we wanted to make sure we didn’t get charged for no-showing since the reservation requires a cc to ensure you will show up- ironic), but the email bounces back and didn’t work... Look, I get it. If it’s super slow, and you need to close early, that’s what you need to do… but turn off your reservation system. Take them time to ensure the space is fully closed down and people trying to come have a way, put up a sign or something.

    Made a reservation. We had 6 people crammed on a 4 top table. The seating was so uncomfortable it ruined the whole experience. I won’t be returning.

    Fun place but very loud and difficult to have any conversation. Our waiter Miguel was wonderful. No vegetarian option for food other than guacamole and olives. It would be nice to have a couple of entree options.

    Vibe, music, drinks are spot on. The service was disappointing. It took 20 minutes to place a drink order, and another 30 mins to get attended to for more drinks and water. Our waitress seemed shocked we weren’t being helped so I assume she stepped in. Maybe short staffed but it definitely put a damper on the experience.
