Food was impeccable, staff very attentive but not over the top, music was great and drinks were delicious. Thank you!Posted on Google Y GranadosTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fui con mi esposo y los niños y solo tengo dos palabras para describir esto. Es espectacular!!!! Y era la primera vez que mi esposo quién es australiano probaba los tacos y le encantó el lugar. Mil graciasPosted on Google J SchoonemanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fantastic food in a fantastic venue with amazing staff.Posted on Google J AmezcuaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The best Mexican food I have tried in Brisbane and being from Mexico this place definitely brings me closer to home with all the flavours. The service is excellent, I have a toddler and I was happy that the kids menu has really good quality meals for him, also the service was very prompt so I had enough time to enjoy all my food before my toddler decided it was time to go home! Muchas gracias :)Posted on Google S DavidsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The food was fabulous! Fresh and full of flavour. Great service. We will be back.Posted on Google L dowlerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Delicious food and cocktails! Perfect for birthday celebrations 🍾 ❤️
