★★★★★ 5.0 Darice Dennis · Dec 2025

Saturday date night and had a great time. Ordered the calamari was very good. I ordered Carne Tampiqueña which was broiled skirt steak served with rice, beans, cheese enchilada, guacamole and sour cream. So delicious. My husband ordered filet mignon with lobster tail. He loved it. Dessert I ordered my favorite sopapilla which is a Mexican pastry drizzled with honey and served with vanilla ice cream. My husband ordered tartufo. Everything was delicious. Service was wonderful!!

Holding that one star back only bc the dessert description was not very clear and took me by a very unexpected surprise. Item: Mango la tequila -Mango with mezcal ice cream (like a rum raisin flavor ice cream but tequila. Basically tequila MIXED INTO ice cream) ok sounds great right? Dish comes (see photo) smells like tequila but I can't figure out why it would smell so strong (even made my bf smell it) but I roll with it. Try the ice cream... Basic vanilla... Try the mango sitting in juice (so I thought)...felt like a spring break in Cancun gal.. smacked with a spoon full of mango and straight tequila! Definitely NOT what I expected. Used my BF coffee saucer and a fork to rescue the mango and ice cream from the tequila soup. All was well after that. The food overall was amazing. I HATE s

I went to this restaurant today and it was a very nice experience. The Mango margarita was delicious . The chip and salsa were also very good and the tacos were also great ! We had flan as dessert and I don’t remember the last time having such a delicious flan ! I will be returning once the weather gets nicer out to sit outside !

We had an absolutely phenomenal experience, and a huge part of that was thanks to Henry. From the moment we were seated until the very last bite, his service was beyond impeccable. Attentive without hovering, professional yet incredibly warm, and genuinely invested in making sure everything was perfect. Henry anticipated our needs before we even had to ask, explained menu items with confidence, and made us feel like valued guests rather than just another table. This is the kind of service you hope for but rarely get—Henry delivered it effortlessly. If you’re coming here, do yourself a favor and ask for Henry. Bring your friends, bring your family, and enjoy an outstanding dining experience from start to finish. He truly elevates the entire restaurant. We will absolutely be back just to b
