Overpriced, uninspired, the menu offers few choices with nothing outstanding, & the waiter was indifferent & unfair. Better to look elsewhere.

Expérience peu satisfaisante, sans doute issue d'un malheureux concours de circonstances où la serveuse est arrivée en retard sur son milieu de travail & n'a pas su rattraper la situation avec l'ombre d'un service chaleureux.

I loved this restaurant, & we will definitely be back! We went with three friends, & the servers were incredibly friendly. We were sitting on the terrace, & when it started looking like it might rain, they kindly suggested that we move inside.

The mocktails were delicious. We ordered an appetizer & tacos, & the food was really tasty. Later, they told us we could play a game & win prizes, & we ended up winning churros & tequila shots!

The churros were especially good. They were not too sweet, not heavy, & not greasy. They were just perfect.
