Found the new-ish restaurant on a trip to GR in August. The food was very good - we had the tiger cries/ceviche and the churrasco. The service left a lot to be desired. The place is huge, and rather than seating us in the main section where most of the other patrons were, we were seated in this side room and we were the only people there. It's a big room to start with, and it felt cavernous and odd. Our waitress was nice, but she kept pushing us on certain food. We both wanted pisco sours, and she kept pushing me to order the margarita. I had to tell her three times, that's not what I wanted. We did both get piscos. When my husband ordered the churrasco, knowing it would be a lot of food, he said specifically, we would split it. Then she asked me what I wanted, and I said, I would share his. She repeated the order. We were served TWO churrasco meals. We tried to tell them we only ordered one, but they didn't seem to understand or want to acknowledge. Our waitress was MIA, probably because we were away from where most of the patrons were seated. The food was cooked well, so we decided we'd take it home and have it the next day, rather try to explain again. We paid for them both, but rather than ordering a second round of drinks & dessert, just got the check. I think if I ordered from them again, it would be takeout only because the service was odd, top to bottom.

The food was excellent - I will definitely be returning for the ceviche!! My only complaint is that must have been pushing 80 degrees in the dining area - we wanted to stay for more food and drinks but were uncomfortably hot!

This restaurant is such a refreshing change from the chain restaurants and regular Mexican restaurants in the area. They definitely have a new twist on an old favorite, I'd highly recommend checking them out, they have a variety for everyone and if you get the margarita, you will only need one.

The scenes in the background were amazing. Food came out super fast but taste was bland and missing the Hispanic flavors it bost about. They were not short handed but all wait staff would rather buss the privet event then the main restaurant. When Wait staff came around they rushed and seemed rushed but when they go to the privet event area you could tell they took their time n did not rush those Patrons.
