“ I came here on a Friday evening. It is a cute spot with a great atmosphere. If you want a good snack, I recommend the quesadilla. I also loved the cafe de olla martini. It was delicious! I received great service from Santana, Andrea and Yayo. I will definitely we returning. ”
“ Our server, Santana, was fabulous! We had such an amazing time with him crafting some amazing brunch cocktails the likes of which I have NEVER tried before and tasted incredible. My mother and my best friend were with me and both loved it here. Though the brunch options are limited, we each tried something different and everything we ordered was big-portioned and delicious. I finished every bite! We had the entire place to ourselves almost the entire brunch which was surprising. The ambiance is so nice that it should be much busier. It is also kept immaculate - the bathrooms are VERY clean and well-stocked. Overall, this is a real hidden gem. Highly recommended - everyone has to try this place at least once. UPDATE: Went back a week later for dinner and a drink and Pierre was working behind the bar. Another fabulous experience! Thank you so much, Pierre! ”
“ The food here is delicious! I don’t need to recommend anything because everything on the menu is a wonderful experience of flavor. You can taste the care and effort that goes into creating and perfecting these dishes. I randomly tried the Lamb Birria Grilled Cheese and was blessed to enjoy it. I also impulsively tried a non-alcoholic beverage off menu and it did not disappoint. Thank you so much! ”
“ I love coming here, the food and drinks are always amazing. ”
