Carlos was our waiter. He provided outstanding service. Our water was filled without asking, provided box and cups for the salsa and my remaining meal. Carlos was attentive without being intrusive . The food was phenomenal! We each had a dish with beef as the protein and the presentation was beautiful. It is located in Nu Lu and has free parking adjacent to the restaurant. Definitely recommend for visitors and Louisville residents.

Excellent food and great service from Byron. We came to celebrate our mom’s 80th birthday and she had a great time. We all want to come back regularly. Unique presentations of Mexican cuisine. Everything we had was tasty and well prepared. If you want an upscale experience with a friendly and colorful vibe try this place out. Plus they have killer margaritas!

The food is delicious and generous servings . The drinks - not so much . We had a pitcher of margaritas -$70 for mostly ice ! We were told 6 servings , but it was 6 servings that were about 3 oz . That’s a very poor value

This not a laid back welcoming Mexican restaurants. We were seated behind the host stand so we felt a blast of cold air every time the door opened. Whoever designed this place needs to rework the entrance. Never been to a Mexican restaurant that didn’t offer hip as and salsa for the table.The server, Carlos was helpful and welcoming. The food was tasty, but overpriced.

The food was very good as usual. Food and drink costs are significantly higher than your typical Mexican restaurant. Food quality and presentation is really good but doesn’t warrant the cost.

Food was great, decor is modern and festive. Be warned: there was a VERY loud Mariachi band playing, which would have been nice if I was not wanting to make conversation with my new friends. If you are wanting a quiet place to eat and hold a conversation, check to see if the band is playing on the night you are going.

Everything this company touches turns to gold!! Just go! It's delicious!! Some of the seating is freezing cold or super hot, the tables outside are terrible...they all wobble, the host staff's eagerness to sit you in the worst possible spot when the whole restaurant is wide open is annoying...but even with all that said, while it is expensive, the food is delicious and the service is flawless!!!
