    The food here was outstanding with lots of great choices. We had the stuffed mushrooms and the blue corn enchiladas, which were both delicious! My friend had the plant based burrito -- wonderful! This place is having a tough time because it's right next to the 16th Street Mall construction, so they could really use some extra love...it's worth it!

    The food was absolutely delicious. We started with the most amazing margaritas. The best homemade fresh, guacamole and salsa. The fish tacos, and the dinner portions of the pork tacos were the best ever.

    The food and service was great. It was not busy when we got there at 5:45 for the last bit of happy hour. The happy hour deals were good and made the overall experience more affordable. I mentioned that we were celebrating our 21st anniversary when making the reservation but they didn't mention it or do anything.

    Made reservations 2wks in advance and were seated at a booth at the bar! ordered the "signature" flight of margueritas and told they were all out of glasses and flight boards. ordered 2 appetizers to share and there was NO ROOM at the table to put it down, waitress tried to take the drinks to make room! Waitres literally asked every 6 minutes if we were done with anything and ready to order. Was hovering less than 2 feet the whole time. Food and drinks were mediocre but the SERVICE WAS HORRIBLE! It was NOT cheap either. Ruined a last night in Denver - so sorry I tried this nasty place!!!

    Overall the dinner was good. Our server was the bartender and she was incredibly busy. She did a great job managing her tables and the bar drinks. My scallops were overcooked and honestly not worth the $47 we paid. My husband's asada plate was large, delicious and filling. We finished with the brownie and a pineapple margarita. Both were very good! We will be back to try other things on the menu.

    Despite being downtown, this restaurant has a wonderful neighborhood feel. We felt like we were dining with locals, and the food was excellent. Service was outstanding in terms of friendliness and knowledge of the menu. A little slow for drinks from the bar but that would be probably because there was only one bartender at the time. Otherwise an outstanding experience, and we recommend this restaurant! Try the Tunatini for an appetizer! Creative and delicious!
