Great, friendly service! The guacamole is chunky and had lots of cilantro, sprinkled with roasted red pepper and some tomatoes. The tradition margarita was ok. The salsa had the consistency of stewed tomatoes. We asked for more bc we wanted to try it a little spicier. The chips were light, thin and warm. The pesto-jalapeño quesadillas were delicious, the diced tomatoes the dish was served with were not so appetizing. Also there was no kick/no heat. The Caribbean salad with chicken was delicious. The music was very old, enjoyable nonetheless.

The pomegranate margarita was perfect, and the tapas menu was fabulous. Can’t wait to eat here again. My husband also loved his sangria.

Poor management, poor service, food was mediocre. We had to ask several times for chips and salsa. The drinks were just OK. Had to wait for drinks and just any basic service from the waiter. Forget about getting anything extra that you needed for your order. The waiter had about 10 tables assigned to him, and everything had to be done by the waiter. Don’t waste your money. We definitely would not return. Don’t let the ambience fool you. It’s only a distraction from the food and the service.

Ambiance inside very friendly. But hard to find…in Home Depot plaza next to Dollar Store. Come on in. Friendly hard-working staff. 2stars for drinks cause all ice. Not Tex-Mex but rather with Spanish flair. We are going back and also return for a happy hour.

Dani Davison

Superb Spanish-Mexican cuisine set in a relaxed yet classy atmosphere. There was live music when we visited for my son’s birthday and he played ‘ happy birthday’ for us. The food was fantastic. The olive appetizer was a hit, as was the queso and fresh guacamole. No complaints, everything was delicious.
