Really enjoyed this new restaurant. Only complaint is that the beef in my tacos was much too overcooked. My husband’s enchiladas were very tasty.

Kind and attentive service. Delicious food and drinks! Staff was very careful and made sure to note all of our food allergies while taking our order and before allowing us to order items that may cross-contaminate. The Mexican Vanilla ice cream is some of the best I've ever eaten! The churros were wonderful too!

Terrible Experience – Avoid at All Costs! I rarely write reviews, but after what we experienced here, I feel compelled to warn others. Our reservation was for 6:15, but we arrived around 6:25 due to parking issues. We were seated near the kitchen, right in a high-traffic area with the door opening and closing constantly. We asked to move to another section, and were told it would be a 25-minute wait. After an hour at the bar, we noticed that not a single table had food in front of them. Some women seated nearby had been waiting for over 1.5 hours and still hadn’t received their meals. It became clear that they had overbooked and the kitchen was backed up, unable to keep up with the demand. We decided to leave but had already ordered two cocktails and an appetizer while sitting at the bar. After waiting about 20 minutes for the appetizer, we asked our server, Aaron, to remove it so we could pay for the drinks and leave. He said only the manager could handle that, and we waited another 5 minutes. At this point, my husband was starving and frustrated, and he just wanted to pay and go. Aaron then threatened to call the police over $23 worth of drinks because he couldn't charge us without the manager's approval. We spoke to another manager, who apologized and said we could leave. But Aaron ran after my husband, claiming they had cameras and threatening to call the cops. Thankfully, the manager stepped in and the situation was resolved. This place is a complete disaster – they overbooked, couldn’t handle the kitchen load, and the service was abysmal. The staff was unprofessional and rude. We will never be returning, and I highly recommend you stay away.

Dear Olaide, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. Your concerns about the seating arrangement, delays in food service, and the handling of your payment are taken very seriously. This is not the level of service we strive to provide, and it’s clear we fell short in several areas during your visit. While we do our best to accommodate guests promptly, it is evident that we did not manage the volume of reservations effectively that evening. We value your feedback and would appreciate the opportunity to make this right. If you are open to discussing this further, please feel free to contact us directly at 713.487.1095. Your experience highlights areas where we can improve, and we are committed to doing so. Sincerely, Jared Escalante

Service needs a lot of work. Lack of acoustic mitigation makes it impossible to hear anyone in your party. This restaurant should not be serving customers until they’ve spent more time refining their service.

Absolute terrible service. We had a reservation and not even 5 minutes after we were seated, they moved us to make room for a larger party. Our server was very slow bringing out drinks, appetizers, and main courses. We had to remind him that we were waiting for our food so he leaves and then suddenly he brings it out, but you could tell it was sitting for a while as it was not fully hot. We waited an additional 45 minutes to get water for everyone. Our reservation was at 5:15pm and we didn't leave till after 7pm due to the long wait. Cherry on top was asking for the check and waiting another 20 minutes, just for us to have to get out of our seat to hunt down our waiter to finally get our check so we could go. The food was very mid and very expensive. The atmosphere was very dark and crowded. Everyone surrounded around us were also waiting for their food. I feel like they should have stopped seating so many people because their staff obviously could not keep up. Definitely would not come back. The review would have been better if our server took the time out to communicate and check up on us. Instead he neglected our table and left us to ask others for service.

The restaurant and decor was beautiful! They have a nice outdoor sitting area. The drinks were yummy. However, the food was mediocre. We tried several dishes and the best one was the queso blanco and chips. The salsa was also very good. I am glad that I tried it, but would not go back.

Not worth it. Although we loved the ambience of the restaurant, the food and service were merely mediocre and not worth the expense. We had a large party of 8, and we were all very excited about this restaurant opening and celebrating the holidays there together. Everyone ordered something different, so we had a chance to sample a wide variety of dishes. The lobster funding at $20 per order was a lovely garlicky, buttery melted cheese to scoop into pinkish- purple hibiscus tortillas. The lobster pieces were tiny, barely there shreds. We were thinking a few larger sized chunks would have made it a more complete dish. The chicken fajitas were just bad. They were far too dry and barely edible. The tortilla soup was also lacking. There was what seemed to be one large chicken tender in the cup of soup, making it a bit difficult to eat and enjoy. The steak on the steak and eggs brunch menu was very well cooked, however, and very flavorful. The lump crab enchiladas were the favorite of the family. Comparatively, everything else paled significantly. The service was slow. We were there for more than half an hour before chips and salsa were served. We already had drinks, and I had to ask for our server to come over so we could place our appetizer order and again to place our meal orders. The only thing that happened quickly was the presentation of the bill that I was all too ready to pay. We won't return, but hope that others will benefit from our leaving this feedback.
