Food was great! I loved the chicken nachos and pastor taco. The holiday drinks were cute and delicious. I heard there was a nightclub downstairs but never made it. I’ll check it out next time.

Went here with friends and ordered their tacos and burritos. We had the El Patron tacos but the meat (al pastor, carnitas) was a bit overcooked and dry. The fish tacos were delicious as well as the California burrito.
Our server was so nice and friendly. She recommended this mezcal drink and it was strong. She offered to bring me more tamarindo to mix with my drink and make it less strong since it’s my first time trying mezcal. All the other staff are friendly too. Toilets downstairs were clean and well kept.

I made a reservation for 25 people through their website, and they were able to accommodate us on a Wednesday evening. We were seated in the semi-private room off to the left side. Our server, Rudy, was fantastic. He was patient, kind, knowledgeable, and honest. Our food came out quickly and was excellent. Our drinks were also well done. I am happy we found this place while staying at a nearby hotel for a conference.
One thing to note. The main room could be quite loud (the minus one star), but I am glad we were in the room off to the side.

First time coming here. The music was playing and the vibe was there. The hostess was a bit rude, our waitress took a long time to take our order and one plate came out right away, the nachos took a bit longer. The drinks were good though. The quesabirria tacos were really good. The flavor was there. The nachos were also really good even if it was extra crispy.

I’ve been there 2 times and this place is great! First of all, design is fantastic. I had chicken nuggets and fries from kids menu and it was unexpectedly big and tasty. They even changed the channel to our football game. Very friendly staff. They have club downstairs which is great too. Love this place!

The food was delicious, and our waiter was great. I also really like the vibe/art and bar seating arrangement. Unfortunately there are a couple things I really disliked..
1.) The sewer smell was pretty strong. I’m not sure if that’s a permanent thing or not, but it was unpleasant.
2.) They nickel and dime you on everything. Chips and salsa was around $10, and they even charge to bring you more chips. Also, on their meals, the price you see is not the price you pay. You also have to read further in the menu description and add $ for whatever meat your ordering.. even on items that would literally never be ordered without meat – see my photo below of El Patron Tacos where the meat was $5 extra…
So to be completely fair, this may be more of a dinner/night spot, and we were here for lunch. I’ll try it again sometime at night to see if the night atmosphere makes up for the shortcomings.

This place is right next door to Intercontinental. So we dropped by for dinner. We were very sceptical having read the reviews. But this place was a pleasant surprise in many ways. The ambience is great and has a lively party atmosphere. The food and cocktails are nice. The margarita flight is a great experience and well made. The nachos, tacos were also tasty, fresh and good portions. The churros were the best way to end the dinner. Great place for some fab cocktails and dinner.

Food was pretty good but kinda wanted spicy or more flavor. It wasn’t a problem and I would still recommend this place because they were accommodating to special diets and server was nice. The chips and guac were good but the quantity of chips was really low for the cost in my opinion.

My 1st issue with this place was the service was slow and inattentive. Made you feel bad for asking for something to order. 2nd issue was the salsa that came with the chips and the salsa was like ketchup. Not tasty at all. So we asked for the green salsa, which was good, but to my surprise was charged for it. When I received the bill, I asked that the charge for the salsa be removed and it was removed, grudgingly. Additionally, the hit you with a credit card service fee of 4%, which isn’t known until you get the bill. The server should give you a heads up or option to pay by cash before you leave your card with them. I would avoid this place. There have to be better spots downtown for happy hour. Lucky for me, ai am not down there that often.
