   Didn’t try the margaritas this time since my last few experiences were that they weren’t like they used to be when they first opened. But the happy hour cucumber martini was decent. The chorizo hummus with the corn tortilla was interesting and tasty. I was a bit disappointed in how rubbery the octopus was. I’ve had it here before and don’t recall it being this tough. The fact that I was recently at The Paseo Grill in Oklahoma City and had some of THE best octopus EVER may have also helped make this seem less than stellar. Would probably not give it a third chance. The menu seemed a bit different. More steak / seafood than feeling like a Mexican restaurant. No more tacos. I miss the bowls they had when they first opened. :( Service was perfect and atmosphere is always nice. And if you’re on UPSIDE, you currently get a “15% off / up to $10 discount” which was an unplanned extra!

   Service was outstanding and the restaurant is beautiful. I ordered the wagyu skirt steak medium rare because I have never seen one on a menu and the temperature on the steak was medium well when it hit the table. Might as well been regular fajita meat at that point. Elote was to much like Mexican creamed corn Cauliflower Mash was just chunked cauliflower with some cheese no real flavor. We also had a salad which was really good. We will give it another shot

   Only planed for drinks and ended with those and shared starters. Was delicious and we both enjoyed the drinks as well.

   Slow, inattentive service overall. Drinks very slow to arrive because bar was backed up. Correct silverware items were not on the table when the food was brought out, so instead of being able to eat we had to stare at the steak … then also stare at the dessert. Cornbread flan was super-dry and flavorless. Beautiful interior design and fun music, but the stress wasn’t worth the money at all.

   Went their for the Valentine's fixed priced menu. Bar was not staffed appropriately making every drink a full one course late which also meant we actually didn't finish them because at one point they just brought them out. Not good when you bring out Prosecco with half a glass of pinot noir left and it allows the Prosecco go warm. I don't think I'll go this route again and will order off the menu. Noise is ALWAYS very loud and you must be prepared which is why I never come with anymore than one other person unless we sit on the patio. We have tried board dinners and large group dinners and it is not conducive to conversation more than the person next to you. It could be addressed if they put acoustic materials on the walls and ceiling to dampen and would still fit decor. Wasn't impressed with the artichoke dip - not much flavor; had to put the green salsa in. Soup was ok. A bit bland . Steak at medium was more like well-done and I only ate half. Cheesecake not flavorful. With that said, I enjoy their margaritas and most of their starters. Therefore, when I go back, I'll definitely remain with ordering my usuals.

    I used to love going here, we use to come about 2-3x a month but moved further away. We came to celebrate after an event, when I came in I asked for brunch menu they stated they don’t physically have one anymore but they will just tell me about it verbally. I asked was it the same as before we mainly just wanted pancakes and mimosas on that menu but will order lunch on other. She confirmed they still had the mimosas I asked about pineapple basil she told us about a strawberry blueberry one we agreed to get that one, and get my 5 year old a mock version of it. I’ve come many times for $6-7 mimosas during brunch so I was not happy that they were double the price. A mimosa should never be priced as a cocktail or we would have just ordered cocktails, or the other mimosa flavors. Heck my son’s mock tail was $12 its just soda water and fruit juice. Unnecessary up charges, we know when we come for dinner we’re going to spend $200-300 because we’re normally doing libations, lamb, branzino, etc. But for a simple brunch we should not be paying almost $200 for 2.5 people, that ordered a few items and mimosas. I always came and set up the usual people who have served us for years and they would never taken advantage of us because they know we take care of them and frequent the resturant however this time sitting with someone newer I just felt like we were just a quick transaction.
