Food: Massive flavors that bite back

The stuffed quesadillas are colossal and bursting with flavor, perfect for a communal feast. Paired with the mammoth machetito featuring surf and turf, it's hard not to appreciate the bold taste and fresh ingredients. The al pastor belly bites are like moments of juicy bliss in every bite.

  • Great Creativity

    Presentation is unique, highlighting creative and original culinary approaches.

    Okay experience, food tasty but pricier than expected, nothing stood out.

Vibe: Dreary space lacks charm

Despite the tantalizing food, the ambiance feels a bit drab and uninspired, making one ponder whether the restaurant is actually open. Live music tries to inject some energy, but it struggles against the underwhelming setting.

  • Great Sound

  • Okay Drinks

    WOM lacks bite-sized context to explain the neutral Drinks sway.

  • Bad Aesthetic

    Ambiance and location were disappointing, reducing overall satisfaction.

Perks: Service pitfalls create headaches

While parking is manageable, the service is frustratingly slow and inattentive, leaving diners wondering if their orders were lost in translation. For groups, this isn't the best choice as the staff seems overwhelmed, diminishing the overall experience.

  • Great for Kids

    WOM doesn’t have enough context to give specifics on why the Kids sway is positively referenced.

  • Okay Cleanliness

  • Bad Staff
