Jose nous a servie. Le personnel était attentionné & courtois, toujours prêt à répondre à nos besoins sans être envahissant. La présentation des plats était soignée, & l'attente entre les plats était raisonnable, permettant de profiter pleinement de chaque bouchée & de la terrasse. L'ambiance du restaurant ajoutait à l'expérience globale. Les tacos au poulet que j'ai dégustés étaient parmi les meilleurs que j'aie jamais goûtés. Si vous êtes à la recherche d'une cuisine mexicaine authentique & savoureuse, accompagnée d'un excellent service & d'une ambiance agréable, je vous recommande vivement ce restaurant.
