   We came to celebrate our anniversary and it was literally the best experience we have had out in a long time. The food and drinks were to die for. Our server Jazmyn was fantastic. We will be back with our friends!

   Food was ok. Drinks were good. Service not great- took a long time to get drinks and server was absent a lot. May have been understaffed at the time.

   Chef specialty entree prices are pretty outrageous. Made my reservation through open table noting it was a bday celebration. No acknowledgment of the bday. Only 1 cocktail was ordered at our table of 4 and when someone else brought the drink to the table, the waiter had no idea who the drink was for. Food was brought out all separate. We ordered the elote as an app, and the menu note stated “could be ordered riblet style” which we did not order that way, but that’s how it came. Our waiter never came back to check on us after the food was delivered and by the time the food came, nobody at our table had anything to drink. We asked someone else if they could bring us water because our waiter completely disappeared and she said yes, but continued to set up the table she was working on and never checked back in with us. My husband eventually got up, went to the bar, took a pitcher of water and refilled our small water glasses. The table next to us (who had the same waiter) sat there with zero acknowledgment for who knows how long. Tables that were seated after them received drink and appetizer orders and they were still sitting there waiting. This place has potential, but they need to get their service kinks worked out for sure. And this is not a Michelin star restaurant who should be charging up to $120 for a “chef specialty” dish.

   We decided to try out this new location before we knew they had another one in Phoenix. Upon entering, the aesthetic is great. It isn't very big, but it is laid out nicely and also has a small wrap around patio. The service was great; the food was hit or miss. We ordered a lot of appetizers instead of entrees. The tuna tiradito was our favorite, it was refreshing and light with balance. The aguachile with jalepeno and lemon was also good; it has a nice balance of flavors. The ceviche was not as good. It had Shrimp cocktail on the side of the glass as well mixed in like traditional ceviche. Unfortunately the shrimp in the marinade was a but rubbery like it had sat in there too long and was overcooked. We also ordered the guacamole and chips and they give you a huge portion of guac. It was a nice blend, a little smoother of a guac, so if you prefer a chunky one, maybe ask. The chips were overcooked and dark that they served with both the guac and cevich, so I opted to not have many after the first taste. As for the cocktails and drinks, I had a mezcal and watermelon drink that was good, but it needed to be served in a different glass as it was very messy. The spice on the rim was so good but also dripped down the side turning my fingers red, and I was also not able to drink it neatly unless I wanted to use the straw which defeated the purpose of spicing the rim. It needed the spice to balance it. My sister ordered a wine on the list and then we were told that they did not have it yet as they were still waiting for their deliveries. I am not sure how long they have been open at that location, but it must have only been a few days. I will go back once they have had a chance to get everything they need and have had a few weeks to get everything consistent. I could eat the tuna tiradito every night and would be happy, and I am confident this can be a 4 and 5 star review next time!

   First off, the decor was sleek and sophisticated; so different from the brewery that occupied the space before. Our server appeared as soon as we sat down to ask for our drink order. My husband and I both had Paloma’s which were served in little pottery jars and were delicious. Our dinner companions both had Margaritas. We ordered Pork Belly Chicharron as an appetizer. My friend and I both got Infamous Quesabirria tacos, my husband ordered Never Before Risotto, and my friend’s husband ordered Carne Asada. Everything was delicious, and so filling. There was even a live saxophone player performing towards the end of our meal. I recommend this spot, and can’t wait to return.

   Service was very poor and slow. Also I checked us in online for an anniversary dinner and we were not acknowledged. Our waiter had a large table so totally forgot about us and we had to fetch someone else to get us the bill. I feel like you guys are struggling with your identity, not knowing if you should be an upscale restaurant or just a burger joint!!! Liked the decor and coziness of the place..

    I made a reservation weeks ago for a group of 6 for a special birthday celebration. They did not have any tables available so we had to wait 30 minutes. We stood at the bar for about 15 minutes to grab a drink while we waited. We weren’t even acknowledged, didn’t even hand us a menu. Nothing. We weren’t able to grab a waiter and order our drinks. In the meantime we were sat at our table, 10 minutes later, the drinks finally came. Our server never introduced himself. He just said, “are you ready to order?” Appetizers came out very quickly. Our meals came out one at a time and everyone waited a while before everyone was served to dig in. Presentation is a 10. Everyone loves their meals. My carne asada was very fatty, the flavor was plain. Overall everyone absolutely loved everything. The ambiance was low light and chill. The musician was our favorite part. He played acoustic guitar, his reminds me of Raul Malo from the Mavericks.
