Our server was amazing and the food was delicious! The only issue was that they listed cilantro lime rice on the menu (which my daughter loves) but actually they serve plain white rice. Other than that it was a fantastic experience!

There was a big party that came in that took up the resources of the entire wait staff including all the menus the restaurant had. We sat for 15 minutes without drinks or anyone coming to our table to take any type of order. I understand that the restaurant was busy, but to run out of menus?? Food was decent but we probably won't be going back.

Everything was going great until the end. The staff gave me a to-go container and there was a bug in it.

I wanted so much to like this restaurant. My family loves Mexican food, having lived in Houston and the Rio Grande Valley. But basic operational issues kept us from enjoying our experience. We booked a reservation for 4, arrived 10 minutes early, and had to stand around—with nowhere to sit and wait—for 15 minutes while staff went up to the 3rd floor lounge and added tables and place settings so they could seat people up there. I saw two couples who were seated up there leave because they were upset with the slow service and remote seating location. For example, they brought my son’s tortilla soup AFTER he had finished his meal! The food was OK, but not great. And they automatically added a SERVICE CHARGE and an 18% gratuity for a party of only 4 people! Also, this restaurant hasn’t nailed down its identity yet—is it a Mexican restaurant, or a sports bar (multiple TVs showing football games) or a bar for pre-gaming? It was loud, disorganized, didn’t seem to understand a reservation system, and the food was mid—and our bill was almost $300! Hard pass for me in the future!

The food was ok not the best, but not the worst. Didn't appreciate that they added an 18% gratuity for 2 people and didn't say anything about doing so, ended up spending a lot of money for just ok food. I have had better.
