Starters & desserts were great! The chicken in both tacos & burrito was too bland (no flavor). Had to put a lot of sauce to make it edible. The tortilla itself was pretty good!

Loved the drinks as well. Service was amazing & polite :)

All 6 of us got there at 10am for a Sunday brunch (with reservations, made 3 weeks before). We were handed the brunch menu. After 20mins, the waitress decides to take our order, we order & then she decides to tell us that more than half of the brunch menu is not available, no explanation, just not available. She gives us another 10mins to switch our choices. We start ordering & then again, other items are not available 🤔 not sure why she did not tell us all that from the beginning.
They didn't have Café de Olla, they had no horchata, but the waitress told us that she could make some horchata if we waited 30mins, which we did.
We get the food, the presentation was ok, but it was not great, it lacked flavour & the guacamole did not taste very fresh. The presentation looked nothing like on Instagram. They didn't have our 1st nor 2nd choices, & the drinks were not available.
Overall, not the best experience, food wise & service wise, there is room for improvement. I would wait until they sort things out before visiting them.

The food was amazing. I had the huarache, half pastor half birria & it was very good, I'm mexican & I felt at home. The service could be a little faster, but our waiter & bartender was very nice to us. Definitely coming back
