We came in late on a Wednesday evening and were the last to order. The staff were fun and friendly and we were happy to enjoy a good atmosphere and have a great dinner. Really generous margarita and a surprise when we left!

Great little Mexicano Restaurante. Delicious margaritas, excellent music. Had the tacos gf pescado and beef. Tasty and well priced for the size. Excellent service from friendly wait staff. The gf/df avocado chocolate mousse was complemented with a divine raspberry gelato. Definitely worth a visit.

Absolutely amazing food, tamales out of this world, super authentic. Staff were good although a bit slow on order takings, and their hot sauce they make is great

We enjoyed our meals here. We were squeezed in on a really busy Friday night in a cozy corner. Service was prompt with mocktails and a nice big good value glass of Shiraz ordered. Our guacamole starter was unexciting but all of our mains were really good, especially my seafood burrito. Our mains took a while to come as we got in just after a large table but they were worth the wait. Great atmosphere here, it is usually busy and reservations are essential

Such lovely decor and a really chill vibe. We enjoyed the margaritas at $18 a piece. The cerviche was excellent ($24), although I would have liked more of it for the price, as we're the small tacos at $10 each - esp the fish taco yum! The coconut flan was delicious but I only remembered to photograph it when almost gone! The churros were a little over cooked, but still tasty. Would definitely return as the service was also friendly and fast.
