The food was pretty good, we all loved the tacos (very small) . But the service was terrible. Had to get up to the bar to get our drinks because the waitress never brought them. More

The food was better than average but the quality of service was very poor. With such an ideal location & the flux of customers, the servers could have done a better job. More

We went there because of the location and we thought casual Spanish food for our group would be great. First off, it's Mexican food, not Spanish...big difference. The service was the best thing that night the food the worst. I ordered the Tortilla Soup which had so much tomato sauce (paste) it was hardly edible. My husband ordered the taco/enchilada... More

This was my first time to this establishment with a group of friends. They ordered royally, I always order on the safe side.

My chicken tostada was tasty and notable, in that I took half of it home; That... More
