Went here for a date & the staff was genuinely friendly, even though our waiter changed during the night. The food was excellent-highly recommend the shrimp tacos; they were phenomenal! ⭐️ Located in the old port, the restaurant space is quite small, but this turned out to be an advantage since it wasn't crowded the time we went & it allowed us to truly enjoy the cozy vibes in the lounge area. 🍸

We were lucky to find this awesome place in the old Port for dinner & drinks. First off, the cocktails are excellent. They have a good choice of sweet or sour options & both the ones we tried are elevated even with foam! The starter we had was incredible & unique. Highly recommend trying out the Esquites! For our mains we had the taco tasting platter, which included 5 different tacos. This was perfect for us as my partner does not eat meat. I had the beef brisket & pulled pork - both were fantastic. I preferred the beef more as it was so tender & tasty. We finished off with the classic churros. Perfect end to a fabulous meal. These were fresh, warm & soft on the inside. The caramel sauce wasn't too sweet, which is perfect for me. Overall this place is so. So good. They prepare fresh guac at your table & the ambience in the restaurant is excellent for a date night. Highly recommended!

Service was extremely slow & inattentive. The pork in the tacos al pastor was dry & overcooked.
