Came here for a work event, with reservations. We were seated promptly & with eased. The hostess was nice.
We were seated as soon as you walk in and half of the table had a couch and others had seats. Antonio was our server, and he was very attentive and nice.
I'm not sure if the food is always slow, or it was a busy night, but the wait times for the food were ridiculous on the night we attended
We ordered appetizers which were :
Quest dip 4/10
Fine cheese was very curdy & not hot. It also did not have much flavor, but did look good
The burro Birria quesadilla was good, but also could've been warmer with more cheese. I do like that it comes with different dipping options. 6/10
The empanadas were very good, and were pretty full inside which most places don't do that. It was very flavorful, with a flaky crust 10/10
The guacamole was okay, nothing to call home about. Most of it was left on the table, would not order again. 2/10
The yuca fries were really good 9/10
Sweet plantains, were not sweet and the sauce is something that should be on the side. 5/10
I ordered the quest fundido as well, and it came out lukewarm. So it was very hard to grab with doughy, soggy, things they were deeming as flour tortillas. 2/10 would not recommend and didn't even bother with a photo. But it is served in a small cast iron skillet with aluminum foil full of dough or "flour tortillas"
For our entrees we had :
The street cart chicken which was amazing, minus the poblano rice. It had a weird taste & way TOOOOOOO many onions in it. I could not even taste the "rice" or anything else after tasting it. Literally, my appetite was ruined. Which was saddening because the chicken was to die for. The tamarind butter they put on top is the perfect touch, JUST NOT THE RICE!
Chicken 10/10
Rice -1000000/10
So I did not want to rate the entire meal together
The veggie fajitas, were just that. Nothing spectacular 5/10
The chimichanga was good and very filling. The taste wasn't what I was expecting, but it was still good 7/10
The only negative review I have regarding the service is Antonio did not offer nor recommend any desserts. (But someone may have asked for the check & I was unaware)
I LOVE the artwork and ambiance of this restaurant, and would definitely be back in a heartbeat
