The food was good & the patio was a nice spot on that street. Our group had some fish & chicken tacos & guac with chips. The chicken tacos were nice & they made the guac fresh by the table side. We did have a long wait despite it not being rush hour, but the servers did let us know about the wait ahead of time, & overall it was a good service.

We had the brisket & fish tacos, both were really delicious, however the tortillas were very small. No sides included with the tacos. Great service & atmosphere.

Great food & great experience. Our waitress was amazing & pulled my daughter over to help her make the guacamole. Birria, fish, & chicken tacos were fantastic.

Let me just start by saying the food was stellar. Fish & Al Pastor tacos plus the tableside guacamole would have been an easy 5 stars.

But the service was awful. Just left in a corner & forgotten about entirely. We were left sitting 30 mins at the end with a cleared table & two empty glasses, just waiting for our bill (after having already requested it). Just awful, awful service. Friendly enough & willing to speak English (much appreciated), but yeesh, be prepared to blow 2+ hours on a couple of (admittedly very tasty) tacos.

Saturday. May 9, 2026, 3pm. I understand that Saturday's can be busy on a nice sunny day, but it appears the staff of kitchen may have been overwhelmed with people who were out enjoying the day. Although it wasn't I early busy. Long wait for beverages, ok with that. Long wait for food that when it did arrive, the fish tacos were ice cold, & overcooked. The beef was just average. For an appetizer, two orders of tacos (3 each), coke & glass of wine, the 105.00 bill (incl tip) was alot to pay for what we referred to 'angry food,' I had read such good things about to this place & hope to this was just an episode of a hiccup as things are getting ready for the summer season.

Love the fish tacos here

I used to love coming here on the terrasse l'été ! But my most recent experience the food fell short of great. I think it was just average & I didn't leave there being like « now that was a great meal!! ». The fish tacos barely even felt breaded & deep fried? It was weird compared to the previous times I've had them. the guacamole was probably the best part. It honestly doesn't even need to be made at the table. That's probably just to appeal to tourists. Something changed there sadly & I wish I knew what it was. I also miss having a DJ on a Friday night terrasse…. Prob won't go back after last night it felt off :(
