    Our server was attentive and knowledgeable. He engaged our two boys to start the night in a light hearted way. Anticipating possible questions/adjustments due to an allergy made ordering and savouring the meal easy as pie. (Try the lime dessert). Everything arrived in a timely manner and our stay was 1 1/2 hrs. Overall a great experience, we will return. Three things that detracted from the evening. When making the reservation an “occasion “ option was offered and checked. Not mention of said occasion was brought up during the visit. The evening was very cold outside. -15-20 and a sharp draft entered the restaurant whenever the door opened. Lastly the music was a little too aloud and made conversation and ordering somewhat difficult. Give them a try the authentic food is hard to find in many areas.

    We had a great time. The tacos had a generous portion of meat. Our server was very knowledgable about the tequila, selection and described the food very well.

    My partner and I had a wonderful dinner! The food was excellent and the service so attentive and friendly. Excellent variety of cocktails and mocktails and not overpriced. The pineapple margarita was divine! Very cool atmosphere—just a wee bit chilly if sitting near the windows. Had the haddock tacos and loved them. So many gf and vegan options. Excited to return!

    Our first time there and we are Mexican food lovers. It did not disappoint! Fresh guacamole and home made chips started our meal. Tacos and bowl were both great. Churros we’re out of this world good! Will be back.
