   Very nice restaurant, patio is beautiful and the starters are yummy, highly recommend the flat bread with goat cheese and blueberries that is a hit! Food and drinks are ok.

   Family was visiting from out of town so we ordered various entrees, food wasn’t the greatest and I wouldn’t return. The waitress we had was nice but in training and recommended a terrible wine that the table forced themselves. She didn’t do well with checking on the table or delivering plates since some entrees were cold. The blueberry bread tasted like flat bread pizza with giant pieces of goat cheese overwhelming the entire thing. Ceviche was fresh. The potstickers didn’t have much flavor. The quesadillas were also lackluster and wouldn’t recommend. The one app that was delicious was the pulpo enamorado (octopus). Entrees wise the crab pasta came out cold and flavor was bland, really small portion. I ordered the chicken mole and the sauce was definitely not up to par, also bland and not reminiscent of a tradition latino dish. Hand made tortillas for my guests lamb shank were cold but lamb shank tasted good. Another guest ordered a vegetarian potato and it was too sweet. Salmon was good thought it’s farmed not wild caught. The dessert was the only shining piece of this $600 dinner and that’s probably the only thing I’d return for and order to go.

   Lunch menu was small so we were a little skeptical, but oh my goodness the food is outstanding

   We had a lovely dinner. Food and cocktails were very good. We had the burrata and the white beans as appetizers. I had the crab pasta and it was delicious. My husband thought the carnitas would be like pulled pork but it looked more like pieces of sausage. The waitress was nice but a bit in a hurry to take our orders. It was very noisy at arrival, but it calmed down a bit throughout the evening. They should invest in some noise reducing panels.

   Very pretty inside and nice quiet courtyard outside. Coconut Margarita and other drinks were delicious. Service was very prompt and personable. The dumpling and the Hamachi were good starters. The entrees ranged from amazing to not good in this order...Barbacoa, Carnitas, Chili de Paseo ( don't recommend at all, texture of stuffing was gross even though the ingredients sounded very good. ).
