    The food was AMAZING, the drinks were awesome and the staff was friendly but the noise in the restaurant was way too loud. They had loud music playing to but then with everyone packed in trying to talk to each other over the music it was hard to carry on a conversation.

    My new favorite Mexican restaurant. The guacamole was so fresh and amazing. I normally only order fajitas at Mexican restaurants but this one I ventured away from that and ordered the Salsa Verse Enchiladas and they did not disappoint. The drinks were also good and were delivered in a fun way. Run don’t walk and definitely make reservations.

    We get there at our reservation time and our table wasn't ready. I also called in before our reservation time and mentioned we needed a high chair and had to ask 3 more times before we got one. Then on my initial reservation I mentioned it was my wife's birthday and they totally forgot about it and when we mentioned it after they never brought out the desert and lights they said it's because they ran out and then changed their story and said it's because we didn't pay for it. They had never asked me to pay for it. It was a terrible experience

    So perfect for a date night out with my husband and I for the first time in awhile since having our son. DRINKS ARE OUTSTANDING and the menu was different from a traditional Mexican restaurant but the taste was still there, so good!

    We really liked the flavors of our Pink Paradise drink, Queso Cheese Dip, and Golden Elote Corncake. My Spicy Tempura sushi was slightly spicy, and my husband’s Chicken Fajitas tasted very mild and needed more marinade or spice. The employees provided prompt service, but a few hours after my meal had ended, they canceled my reservation, and I had to contact OpenTable to receive my 100 points.

    very fun place with a funky vibe the food was outstanding. I recommend trying the Mexican sushi. Some of the best Mexican food I’ve ever had very fresh. Very tasty. I highly recommend this place. If you’re looking for a fun night out and some really good food. I don’t drink anymore, but their cocktail list has some pretty fun and creative of cocktails on it
