   La comida es deliciosa, no son sabores tan comunes pero muy bien logrados, no había tenido oportunidad de ir aquí en CDMX, solo en Tulum y es igual de rico.

   Too much nightclub vibe for a dinner. Overpriced for ordinary dishes.

   Festejamos nuestro aniversario y la comida estuvo bien, el ambiente muy bien. Al final nos llevaron un pastel con vela pero sin música. En general nuestra experiencia fue buena, aunque la mesa pudo estar mejor ubicada.

   It’s a nice restaurant and the food that we had was good… but the noise level was beyond comprehension….. they have a DJ who played louder than needed music. Then…. Then the saxophonist showed up. He didn’t need a mic, but had one which increased the volume. He toured from room to room and we had to cover our ears it was so loud The staff got into it clapping as well. We thought it might be for just a minute, but after 10 minutes of having to hold our hands over our ears it wasn’t stopping. We called the server over to ask how long the music will continue. I think he said it goes on all night. We then asked for the manager. The manager wasn’t very attentive. When we asked again if the volume was going to stay at this level he refused to give us a straight answer. We asked that he cancel our order for our mains, got the check and left. He wasn’t apologetic and we specifically looked on our way out for any notice about live music or level of noise and could not find anything. It’s one thing to have live music, but when it’s so loud that you can’t enjoy your company you are spending time with nor your dinner, that’s a major problem. It’s like eating your dinner in a loud, pulsating night club. Save that crap for a bar, not a restaurant!!!

   1/10 stars, went here for my anniversary dinner with my BF, first 10 minutes were great however they tried to push expensive steaks, expensive tequila shots on us. Upon realizing they would not be making excessive amounts of $ on us, they proceeded to rush us through our meal. From trying to take plates before we finished to grabbing the menu, pointing at the entrees demanding we order before we even received our appetizers. Horrible experience and they shuffled us out in less than an hour. Best part is there were multiple tables empty around us and now I see why Also no saxophone or live music so don’t get your hopes up. This was all at 7 pm on a Saturday FYI, Greek meatballs & our 2 drinks were good that’s about it, the entrees you could find better option’s elsewhere

    Taboo was more theater than restaurant. The venue was very pretty, the food was fair, and the music/ noise was deafening. The service tries hard but was just ok.
