The service was excellent, very attentive. As usual, the cocktails were on point, & the tacos & appetizers were delicious. We found the atmosphere warm & energetic, & our server was amazing. We had the guacamole, twice, & the baja fish, fried chicken, al pastor, & Korean beef tacos. It's hard to say which one was best.
