Chilaquiles were great. The creme on the avocado toast seemed unnecessary. Loved the atmosphere.

We thought we would try something new for my husband‘ and son’s birthday. Instead they lost our reservation which I booked on open table. But they made it sound like “oh hey, we will pick it up for you! ... by giving us some guacamole. The service was lousy, food was mediocre, drinks were not worth drinking. Needless to say we will not be returning.
