    very nice staff the food is good although the carnitas were dry compared to the last time we ate there shortly after the restaurant opened. our grandson was pleased with the burrito off the kids menu the quesadillas off the kids menu was a corn tortilla with queso/ lees appealing to the other child with us

    What a wonderful find this restaurant was! Beautiful setting, warm, attentive service, and some of the freshest flavors ever. The salsas, the flavor of the food, the burst of lime in the margaritas —everything we sampled was bright, fresh and delicious. I can’t wait to go back.

    I found the cocktails weak or watered down. We ordered the mixed grilled meat plate and I wasn’t a fan of the chorizo but the steak was cooked to perfection.

    Flores has added delicious new item to their already delicious menu. The Ceviche was so good. With crunchy cucumbers and yummy avocado. Our dinner was delicious. I had my usual fish taco. My husband had the new item of brisket quesadillas with a dipping sauce he said was slightly spicy and delicious.
