Customer Reviews
Good spot to grab a quick lunch. Place is very beautiful. Service is ok. Tacos were amazing. Lemonade was freshly squeezed. Guacamole taste super delicious.
I place the 2 orders my first being tacos my 2nd fried fish. The fish comes out I eat my order the dryest hard fish I've ever eaten in the picture on the menu it's a whole fried fish a skimpy fillet comes out and my taco order never comes out I ask the waitress and I'm told I never told her about the tacos when it's the main reason I went. So i patiently wait for the tacos 30min later i ask what's going on only to be told the kitchen is closed you would think they would race to bring my check over no i had to get up and ask do i gotta wait another half hr for the check? Horrible customer service I'll go right back to viva margarita up the street
Was visiting a friend in Jersey and we wanted to eat Mexican food late at night and so this place was open still. Food was good and fresh but I feel they could spice it up a bit more. Good place for drinks and a very Spanish atmosphere :P
1st time I tried the tacos and they were delicious but I was disappointed that it only came with sour cream and not guacamole. The only reason I ordered tacos is because on the menu it said guacamole was included and I was really craving for some guacamole. Instead, the tacos came with 2 thin slices of avocado. I searched photos online and I saw people with guacamole with their tacos at the same restaurant. I don't speak Spanish so I don't know how to explain it to the waitress.
The ambiant is right. If you are looking to grab some traditional central american dishes over a beer, place is about right over a beer. Don't expect fancy cocktails. They have bartenders but I cant say I know the extent of their bartending knowledge.
