Came here with the kids for lunch after going to America's Best in the plaza. The server was very kind and attentive . My son had the pupusas. He loved them... said they were the best he ever had😋 I had a very lovely shrimp fajita ❤️ It was sizzling the shrimp was well seasoned🦐 very nice👌🏾 The Pina Colada was nice and my daughter had fries with a side order of beans. She loved it would definitely go back😎

Nice little surprise. Word of mouth got me here. Stop by one afternoon to grab a bite before my flight. The place had a familiar vibe, restaurant by day, social lounge/bar by night. I would love to come at night to see the vibe. Back to the food, I ordered to Tacos and the dish in the photos, I can't remember the name but its pictured on their menu. Everything was great, fresh hot food. That shrimp dish was awesome, must try! Had a very authentic taste to it. The only thing that knocked down the 5th star was the communication. Waitress spoke very little English, normally its not a problem but we got charge for an extra side do to the miscommunication. Either way I will return.... maybe for happy hour! Oh and they had great drink prices!

They consistently play music so loud it can be heard blocks away in a residential area with working class people and children. Don't support this business. We have talked with the staff and tried to speak with the owner who is never available. They continued to play loud music until 2:00 am DURING EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK. Some people need to sleep.

I was so ready to write a bad review on this restaurant for having such a bad experience. But a friend reminded me that I've been patronizing the business for years. And out of all these years, this is the first time that I have ever experienced this type of service. After calming down and thinking rationally. I realized he was correct. We can not hold business owner accountable for their staff lack of capability and incompetence. After all, I should know better than to expect quality food late at night. The only one piece of advice is to please engage with those who patronize your business on a regular basis. Not everyone is there to party. Therefore, please don't treat everyone the same. Needless to say, I will never eat at this restaurant ever again.

Great good looking girls. Very good customer service. They all are my favorites 🥰, however I recommend Alejandra 😍. Managers are fabulous, especially Iris 😘. Food also is very good, my favorite is the Steak and black clams cocktail. Have in mind that this is not a family place. And has a really good happy hour Monday to Friday 4 to 8 pm.
