    Un délicieux moment, à la hauteur de ce que j’espérais y goûter. Je me suis régalé avec des plats frais et savoureux. Les différents tacos que j’ai dégusté étaie très très bons. Mes papilles s’en souviendront longtemps. 😋😋😋😋

    Food quality did not meet my expectations. The shrimp burrito had few shrimp, few vegetables and generally tasteless. The tortilla tasted raw and was over sized compared with the contents! The mini-tacos appetizer was terrific…beautiful presentation and a significant portion. The red salsa was flavorful and tasted homemade. I would not return.
