   I think they're one of those places that like to make you wait outside just to look like there's a lot of people inside. I saw a group of 3 wait outside for over 20 minutes while there were empty tables inside... Not sure? Just an observation. The ambiance was nice, though, very sexy, dark, and low lit inside. Everything looked clean ( always a plus). Ordered the chillaquilles 6/10, sucked to have to pay an extra 15+ bucks to add actual food to the chips, but overall, it was good. Too much jalapeño sauce, so maybe ask for light sauce. The Mimosas were good, and I loved that they brought around fresh mex bread to the tables. The service was great. The waiter checked on us regularly and was very kind. I would return and do recommend. I definitely suggest making a reservation and having all guests arrive with you so that you're not just waiting outside.

   It was pretty good for a restaurant that is just starting out. I didn't find the food anything amazing, but it was fine/good. Service was fine. Overall, it was a nice, quiet (at the time we were there, anyway) place to dine. The person who greeted us and seated us was nice and let us know if we needed anything they were there. Overall, I didn't have anything to complain about. My husband's burger was really good. I only ordered some side vegetables and salad (I'm a vegetarian) and they were fine. Thank you.

   This has very quickly become my favorite breakfast/ brunch spot in Corona! Every time I come I try something new and it's always been delicious!

   The service and ambiance were fantastic. Three of us went for brunch this past Sunday. We arrived about 15 minutes early for our reservation and were asked if the patio would be ok and yes, given the beautiful day, we agreed. and were seated right away. Kudos to the Maitre'd as he handled multiple people showing up at a busy time with grace and ease. The drinks were very good as was two of the three meals we had. My brother had the chicken sandwich which was cooked perfectly and a plentiful amount of french fries. My wife enjoyed the chilaquiles which was also plentiful and very good. I ordered the chicken waffle and while the waffles were fresh and delicious, I had two small issues. First the chicken was overcooked and very dry. I think part of the problem was they provided three separate portions of small chicken breasts and when they were fried, they were overcooked and dry. Flavor of the coating was great. Maybe they should consider one larger breast instead of the three smaller ones so it wouldn't be so dry. Lastly, the "chefs" syrup was a bit disappointing and a little too spicy for me. I would have enjoyed the basic maple syrup better. All in all, we were pleased and will be back to enjoy the restaurant again and if I have the chicken waffles, I will let the server know about my experience ahead of time. We need good restaurants in Corona, and this could be really great with a couple of minor tweaks.

   Service was extremely slow had to wait 30 mins before receiving drinks. The bar drinks were served small and did not taste good for our group had to send back several times. On a high note the food was amazing, a bit pricey but saved some of the experience.

   Was definitely let down from our experience... Not sure if the place was severely understaffed for a Saturday night, but service was poor not to the fault of our server. He seemed to have tables all over the restaurant. We're usually pretty patient guests. The worse part was our underwhelming food. It's extremely rate that I send my food back but had to send my scallops back as they were pan seared very poorly. No carmilization or color. The ribeye that I ordered instead came out quickly and was very good. Seemed very unorganized to the point where the table next to us walked out. Sadly, I don't think we will be returning to this place.

   I am bummed because we came for brunch before and loved it. So, we brought my mom and in-laws for the dinner experience. Our reservation was at 5pm when they reopened for dinner. Our dinner did not come out all at once and 4/5 of our dishes were luke warm and one was cold. The taste of the dishes was very good, but the fact that they were luke warm and cold did not make it enjoyable. We have one meal packaged up to go after mentioning to one of the employees that it was cold. We did not get one of our sides and it was on the bill along with our cold meal that was not eaten and packaged up. I do have to say our server was wonderful regardless of the hiccups. We are rooting for this restaurant, because it has major potential. We will give it another try.
