   Went there to celebrate my birthday, food service ambiance amd mariachi was all amazing the only thing is the volume was almost club like and we couldn't even hear eachother to have a small convo... if the speakers were down just a little it would be absolutely perfect.

   I’m genuinely glad we didn’t read the reviews.. The ambiance, staff, drinks, and food were all outstanding. We were getting a little impatient as we were seated 40 minutes after our reservation time, however given the fact that we were a Party of 15!! It truly should have been expected. Our server Erika with a “K” was phenomenal, didn’t skip a beat with our large group. She was attentive, patient and friendly! She always had a smile on her face, while answering our questions in regards to substitutions & or recommendations. We would absolutely return. My dad now wants his bday there too. 🤣 Thank you Erika, for making our Mom’s Birthday extra special! 🫶🏼

   I've dined here multiple times and despite really wanting to like it, I just can't recommend it. I will not return. Cons: -The marchiachi band is ridiculously and unnecessarily loud. You cannot have any sort of conversation with others at your table. -The restaurant is overpriced. -The food is good, but not great; definitely not worth the price. -When I arrived 15 minutes early for my reservation, the hostess made us wait until the exact reservation time before seating us, even though the table was empty the entire time. -We then waited another 15 minutes before being acknowledged by a server. The server was wonderful and apologized, explaining that the hostess hadn't assigned our table to a server. Pros: -The drinks are fun and tasty. -The mariachi band is a nice touch, but it's way too loud. Overall, I'm giving this place a 2-star rating (vs 1-star) mainly because of the drinks.

   I’ve been to this restaurant a few times . The food is good, the ambience is great but OMG it’s toooo loud in there . If you want to catch up with friends or family and actually hear what people are saying, this is not the place . We had to ask to sit outside and still at times it’s too loud .

   Due to the mixed reviews I waited a good while to check this place out. I was looking for a place to have my mom’s 90th birthday party , she wanted mariachis. So we brought her to see if this would be the place. Made reservations at the last minute and walked early to be seated promptly. We grazed trying and sharing different dishes. We enjoyed most of it. The food was hot the cocktails were good ( not excellent ) our waiter was excellent and the friendly and party atmosphere was lively. The music was to loud where we had a very difficult time having a conversation. I’ve heard that some people thought it was pricey. I don’t considerate since they had entertainment the mariachi. I would only come and pay those prices with the entertainment otherwise it is not worth it. The prices aren’t outrages by any means , taquitos ( papas. Were $ 18 my fish tacos $18 does not include rice or beans. drinks $16.50 not bad but for that price I’d go down the street to the Dal Rae. Basically it’s a good place for mariachi and a few shots of tequila to put you in the vibe.

   Customer service was not like usual. It took 25 minutes to get someone to come introduce themselves as our waitress.
