★★★★★ 5.0 Maira Almonte · Feb 2026

We were the first ones there. The place has a lot of potential! I’m excited for when it’ll start to get busier. I ordered the chicken and waffles and it came with a raisin and strawberry syrup that was AMAZING in flavor. The waffles were also made with cinnamon which was so good. I didn’t take a picture of it but my man ordered the tostones of shrimp and that was also so good. Or had a slight sweet taste to it and I couldn’t figure out what sauce made it like that. He also ordered a breakfast burrito that he enjoyed very much. Our drinks were also good. I had the mimosa flight and he had a mango frozen margarita (forgot the name of it). The aesthetics of the place is also very nice. They have a parking lot as well so you don’t have to worry about finding parking. I’m definitely coming back

Attended one of their Themed Weekend Brunch as a group and we had a blast..!! Great party vibes with live music and dance, and one the entertainers was simply amazing. She had a wonderful attitude and made all of us feel involved. Drinks and Food all tasted good and the service was quick. Bachelorette Night was the Theme, so you can imagine how the Drinks and Food was shaped 😀

I choose on a Monday night to find a nice spot near home for a quick bite and drink, soon as i walked in my waited Juan was extremely helpful and attentive. Not only was my food fresh and well made but the drinks are worth it as well. If your ever by Elizabeth stop by and see Juan he’s the absolute best!!! They also offer hookah in the patio!

Unfortunately I need to chime in & agree with a lot of the 1 star reviews here, Unfortunately food was cold, didn't receive utensils/napkins etc all the items to set a table, my food was overly salty and cold, for 5 people we spent over $220!!! Totally insane...with the group we were with, they waited over an hour for food, when they showed up before my group, totally unacceptable service, we're not locals we are from out of town and went based on reviews a total disappointmemt

Great tacos and margarita specials on Tuesday. Beautiful ambience and big space. Definitely will come back on Fridays for R&B nights. Big thanks to our waitress Teana for the recommendations the fish tacos were a hit. (Gratuity already included great service!)
