★★★☆☆ 3.0 Charu Sharma · Mar 2026

Went for our anniversary during happy hour, but the cocktails were not good. I tried the pineapple tamarind margarita and it was too sweet. The server informed me that it’s from a pre-made mix so they cant do much to fix it except add more soda. They tried to fix it but it tasted worse. I was disappointed that they don’t make fresh margaritas!! They did take it off the bill, which was nice since I didn’t like or drink it. My husband had another cocktail which was bitter, but he finished it. The chips and salsa served complimentary were ok. The chips were really broken (see photo) and the salsa came out of a large premade mix in a bottle - again not freshly prepared. Had the portobello mushroom fajitas, and they were tasty though oily. Every server or staff coming to our table saw the “ha

The food was amazing. I loved the dessert - coconut flan - i was skeptical at first but truly the taste made my day. One thing I noticed was - even though we were sitting outside, it felt too noisy. I suppose since it was outside seating everyone was enjoying it. The view from there is spectacular though. Reservations are definitely required.

My husband and I visited the restaurant today for our anniversary dinner. We had a reservation so we were seated promptly. It was all good till the water was served. We were told our server would be with us shortly. She came to take our orders about 15 mins of wait. She was just lost most of the times except the two times she brought out our drinks and meals. She was chatting away with the ladies at the table behind us but did not check in with us. I think we had a better and a nicer conversation with the other servers who passed our table as well as the hostess who wished us a happy anniversary even when we were leaving. Once we were finished our meals, we waited for a long time before she came and collected our plates. After that, she disappeared again. We were initially thinking of havi

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Bianca O'Brien · Dec 2025

Location is great, views can't be beat! However this place is very overpriced for what it offers, a bit of a tourist trap if you will. We tried the queso fundido, the ceviche trio, the enchiladas, the chicken, the tostada (got soggy super quick and was impossible to eat like a normal tostada), and the salad. The food was ok in taste, nothing extraordinary. The price was super inflated. The ceviche trio was lacking in distinction - they all just tasted mostly the same. The toastada just had to have the toppings eaten off the shell - it was soggy and hard to cut. The salad was phenomenal, I did switch the blue cheese for cotija though! The flan (one of my favorite desserts) was not good so I didn't finish it. The churros were delicious and hot! As a one time visit, not bad and the staff w

★★★★★ 5.0 Miriam Andrade · Nov 2025

The buffet was amazing. Everything but the cauliflower, was my favorite. The rice and tamales was tender. I loved the salmon and pork lion. I visited for Thanksgiving and was not sure what to expect for a Mexican cuisine. There was enough parking and such a large amount of space and seating indoor or out. The price was reasonable not over $90. The valet changed to self parking during 12pm times. I can't wait to try this restaurant again and I have already told everyone to visit. I did not have too much contact with the service since it was buffet style. The Hostess could have given a warmer welcome. But, we have great memories there. The view, flavor, atmosphere and joyful presence was outstanding for the holidays.
