    The food was phenomenal and the service was great as well. We ordered the skirt steak tacos and mahi mahi tacos. Both were some of the best tacos we had. The table side guac is a must have if you eat here! We will definitely be back!

    Outstanding. My server, Sean, made the experience at Americano unforgettable. The food was incredible, but it was Sean who brought a certain flair and unrelenting wit to the table that really engrained this night into my memory. His recommendations and genuine honesty perfectly guided me through the dinner, and I feel that my experience was specially curated for me specifically. The ambiance was dark, yet comfortable. The wine and whiskey selection was divine. Every menu item that graced my fork was perfectly executed in the kitchen and every bite felt heaven-sent. Chef Beau is an absolute legend for this one.
