“ Food best Mexican food we have ate since Eagle Pass. Drinks are very good and fresh ad we tried many. Band was awesome. Our waiter was spot on. ”
“ I went late on a Friday night and it was a mediocre setting with very little life and was actually kind of pleasant. The service was decent. The food was good, but nothing close to the hype I've heard of it. ”
“ Got the aguachiles negro and they were SO GOOD. I’ve had multiple other things from here too.. chicharrones are awesome as well. I brought my dad and his staff here when they came to visit and everyone loved it! Drinks are also delicious! ”
“ Absolutely delicious, if you like spicy I recommend aguachiles de mango, or get this plate where you can get 3 types of aguachiles and 2 ceviches ”
“ Honestly the food and especially the drinks were disappointing. Chips were fresh and their house salsa was spicy so things started well. I decided to try the Botana Ahogada which had good flavours, nice sized shrimp, lots of imitation crab, maybe a couple of small scallop portions, and the tinyest pieces of octopus you ever did see. Even the avocado slices were small, few and far between. Their mixed drinks looked tasty on the menu and were large served in tumblers but they were pretty hit and miss. They were the kind of drinks one would expect at a college bar or in a cheap touristy Mexican restaurant. Overall underwhelming. ”
