I absolutely loved my experience here! We arrived around 3 when there was a DJ AND IT WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! Everyone got up and danced.. the servers encouraged everyone to get up and wave white flags that they provided! Our server Pedro/Peter was 10/10 and the food was also 10/10… in a party of around 12.. there were no food complaints

I been wanted to come here for a while and today was my husband birthday so I took him here and it was beautiful even though it was a Tuesday on July 18th 2023. It wasn’t pack and the staff was friendly she even went out here way for us and the bartender made delicious drinks the chef give us options even though it wasn’t dinner time and because we a vegan they had many Vegan-friendly options. Thank you all for the service you provided us today.

Beautiful place for a brunch celebration or just to meet with friends. Gorgeous decoration, nice ambiance, food was good. Definitely looking forward to a second visit where I can try more of the menu. Only downside sometimes server are rushing you too much and they serve all the food of the brunch package all at once, no giving enough time for people to enjoy their company and properly talk.

Had dinner with my friends but I just didn’t like the experience…drinks and food take too long to come to the table. We asked for some items on the menu and they were not available, they should update the menu! I got the enchiladas and I expected more to be honest! At least our server was nice.
