Inspired by Latin American fusion with a twist of Japanese as a new generation of a fun restaurant as well as a chilled vibe all in one. We are also bringing our many different varieties of drinks to our cocktail bar, and what better location than in the heart of downtown Greensboro!!

Went there for a coworkers birthday gathering totalling 5 people. We all ordered and paid for our food separately. However towards the end of us calling it a night we decided to do the Plan flight shots, that’s where they bring a toy plane and hype up everyone and we all do a shot this was a total of $60 that we all decided to divide between the five of us totaling $12 each. When he brought the bill to separate the $60 with everyone at the table he was trying to charge$20 each pay $20 then he tried to give it to me and I told him I wasn’t paying the $20 because it was $12. Manju we already closed out our existing tabs so this was a fresh start tab. So when my birthday girl was trying to explain to him that we were being overcharged he wouldn’t listen and walked off and still charged her $50. So because we are all not actually nurses and we’re not terribly hard up for money we decided we will go ahead and pay it and just not return. However I am a Google reviewer and I go to different places and I experienced the vibe so that I can tell other people about it. It’s a great vibe if you’re looking for fun music different experiences of cultural foods. However watch your tab tight and make sure you’re very clear with what you’re paying for and if you do have a problem with your bill ask to speak with upper management because this might be something that is done on a regular basis and no one is addressing it especially when the restaurant / club vibes probably deal with different types of attitudes with just customers on a regular basis. So the waiter is probably do have a little bit of non-tolerant however wrong is wrong and right is right and he was definitely wrong 4 overcharging and he probably pocketed whatever was over. And the date that we went was 1/10/26@7:00pm

Lobster pasta was just ok. The empanadas were awesome! Drinks were good. The music and atmosphere was great. I will need to go back to try some new things. Good spot for a ladies brunch or dinner.

This was a party of two single ladies. First let me say the atmosphere here is awesome. The music selections were on point for Valentine’s Day. The food tasted amazing unfortunately, they messed up our stuffed red snapper order. They also brought out food for one of us. The red snapper order came out 15 minutes after they brought out the pasta order. We were not able to eat together. The staff was nice but some didn’t seem to know what they could and couldn’t do when it came to certain orders. My cousin ordered the stuffed red snapper which came with shrimp, claims, mussels, octopus, calamari etc. we asked if we could take out the claims and calamari and put the octopus on the side. Our waitress left the table to ask if this was possible, she came back and said yes. When the red snapper came out it was NOT stuff. The manager(Mundo) came over we told him the same thing he said ok. Came back with a plate of rice and cut up octopus, no shrimp, no mussels and the octopus was NOT on the side. The manager (Mundo) came back and said oh claims and muscles are the same( ) they come together. He NEVER told us that if we don’t want the claims then we can’t get the muscles because they come mixed together. This was very disappointing. He apologized and that’s it. He eventually brought out a side of cut up shrimp. He didn’t seem to care about the $87 order being messed up. He just stated that it’s Valentine’s Day and that they have been busy and backed up all day. Smh this had nothing to do with our order getting messed up. Our waitress never came back to out table to check on us. Had the manager offered to discount the one order that came out messed up twice. This review would NOT have been negative. Mistakes happen put a smile on your customer’s face regardless of their race. This was our first and last time here.

This restaurant is nice inside. I didn’t care for the food. I had the salmon and mashed potatoes with vegetables. The salmon was dry and the mashed potatoes were not real potatoes. They were too thin and lacked flavor. I think salmon pairs better with rice. The broccoli was good and seasoned well. My friend had the pasta and she wasn’t impressed with her meal either. The lemon pepper chicken wings were fried good but it tasted like they was really heavy on the lemon pepper and it tasted salty. The service was great. We went there for her birthday but we didn’t get the fun that’s described in some of the other reviews. We saw a large group that looked like they were having a great time. It’s nice inside. The drinks were good. The prices are reasonable. The parking sucks but it’s downtown. It’s always difficult to park downtown. I would go there again for drinks but I’ll pass on the food. They do have a nice area to take pictures at.

First time here for a lunch with co-workers. Menu had a lot of things to pick from. Everyone got different types of food, mainly the different tacos plates. Food was fantastic! There was someone in our party that had a food allergy and it was treated with upmost caution and that was very appreciated. The vibe was great, good music playing! I bet it can get really loud in the evenings. We were the only people there eating at 12:45 pm on a Thursday. Our amazing server was Sage, who was so helpful and friendly! Can’t wait to come back to try something new. The only thing I can suggest to the owners is the outside is very unassuming and bland. I always thought y’all were closed and never would’ve considered seeing if it was open. This place is a gem and everyone deserves to know it’s open for lunch!

Went here on Mother’s Day and it was the best place to be! Atmosphere and music was everything and more!The food was great, I ordered the lamb chops that came with broccoli and mashed potatoes that was DELICIOUS, along with a mimosa! Great prices and food was spectacular. Nice spots to take cute pics also which I enjoyed! Not to mention the Customer Service was on POINT. Our waitress Litty was WONDERFUL! She constantly checked in on our table and made sure we had the best service and was SUPER sweet. Will definitely be back for another great time!

I seriously don’t know how this place has 4.5 stars. It deserves a solid 2 after my weekend experience. I brought my mom here to eat and the art was nice but not the staff! Nobody looked happy or even welcoming I’m not sure what that was about. The food presentation was good but as far as the flavor it was very Tex-Mex like. Not authentic Latin food at all. Don’t waste your time on the ceviche or the pasta.. even the beans were gross. The drinks were ok not worth $15+. There were lots of young adults/teenagers so if you’re anything over 30 it might not be for you during weekend nights. Lots of profanity and sexual music. This place has the potential to be better but someone clearly isn’t managing right. Sit this one out and go elsewhere with your money

We enjoyed our time here. The vibe was great, more for a slightly younger crowd but nonetheless, we felt comfortable and would come back. We requested and were seated on the second floor, right next to a large party. It was kind of loud but nothing out of the ordinary. Music was great. For food, we tried the croquetas with crab inside. They tasted good, especially with the homemade cilantro sauce. The croquetas are like fried mashed potato balls with cheese a hint of crab. Could’ve used some chunks of crab meat but flavorful. The fried lemon pepper wings were delicious. For drinks the Pura vida was served in an owl, and I recommend that drink over the Cosmo. Perfect place for a sisters night out or with friends. Will come back soon. And, don’t forget the selfie station

This was such a cool spot, the friendliest service, and the most delicious true fusion food! We had the churrasco bites and the mar y tierra roll. I did not expect latin sushi to work as well as it did, it really blew us away, and the steak was cooked to perfection. I only wish we lived closer! You have to try this place if you’re in Greensboro!
