    Had dinner here on a Sunday evening, visiting from out of town and we were highly impressed. Our server Abigail was very friendly, attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. The food and drinks were AMAZING. I had a margarita which I can say was one of the best ones I have had in a long time. We started with the guac and chips which was delicious, followed by a variety of tacos and each and everyone of them was amazing. I will absolutely return if I am back in town!

    Our server was attentive and knowledgeable. He engaged our two boys to start the night in a light hearted way. Anticipating possible questions/adjustments due to an allergy made ordering and savouring the meal easy as pie. (Try the lime dessert). Everything arrived in a timely manner and our stay was 1 1/2 hrs. Overall a great experience, we will return. Three things that detracted from the evening. When making the reservation an “occasion “ option was offered and checked. Not mention of said occasion was brought up during the visit. The evening was very cold outside. -15-20 and a sharp draft entered the restaurant whenever the door opened. Lastly the music was a little too aloud and made conversation and ordering somewhat difficult. Give them a try the authentic food is hard to find in many areas.

    We had a great time. The tacos had a generous portion of meat. Our server was very knowledgable about the tequila, selection and described the food very well.

    My partner and I had a wonderful dinner! The food was excellent and the service so attentive and friendly. Excellent variety of cocktails and mocktails and not overpriced. The pineapple margarita was divine! Very cool atmosphere—just a wee bit chilly if sitting near the windows. Had the haddock tacos and loved them. So many gf and vegan options. Excited to return!
