Overall, I didn't feel like this place deserved the hype. The service was great, my halibut was good, but the shrimp with it weren't fully cooked. The margaritas were nice, but the server tricked us with a $2 each upgrade so they ended up costing $10 each which is so ridiculous for the small size of them.

Editor's Review

Upscale and intimate, this colorful Mexican restaurant draws Old Town regulars with its authentic fare and wine/tequila list.  See the full editorial review.

Insider Tips

What to Drink

Choose from 100 sipping tequilas, flights of anejos, blancos, reposados, ultra-premiums, mescals and the "connoisseur's" selection; have a house margarita with Herradura Silver. The list of French, American, Spanish and South American wines compliment spicy foods.
