This place is incredible. Accept no substitutions, no competitors. The Mango Habanero Ceviche, the Aguachile, the Biria tacos & the Al Pastor were all heavenly. Price is perfect for the amount of work that clearly goes into this food. Guys, don't change anything.

Got the mango habanero ceviche & birria tacos. Both tasted fresh & there was a lot of fish in the ceviche but wasn't spicy at all. Drinks were good, service is great. Would come back!

Service was good. The ceviche had a lot of fish which is good but it was lacking a bit in flavour. Didn't taste like much. The drinks were good & was at a good price especially with happy hour. (10$ for a cocktail). The tacos were good however they were not worth the price tag. 3 small tacos for 15$. I would expect for this size to be around 9$ to 12$ or to at least have a fourth one. You can get 4 tacos for the close to the same price at taco lakalaka. Overall a good experience but I would not return due to the price.
