New-ish Spot in town! Everything is a vibe here. Feels like this should be a Chicago area restaurant. Great music, a dedicated bar area and their own live DJ! Plus the Great music taste elevates this hip spot. I came in for a quick bite and chill session. The Jamaican tuna cerviche was fire 🔥 they also give you chips and salsa automatically. The bar tenders were very good. The berry mezcal cocktail was delicious and made well. It gets busy but slows down after 830pm so I think best time for adults is after 8pm but regardless it’s so much fun there, you’ll love the food and drinks. Best new spot in town so far!

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Food was great. Service was horrible. I ordered traditional guacamole and got their extra charge 3x. Ask for one bowl of queso and got two. Our glasses were empty for most of the meal. We had to keep asking them to refill them. Mandatory 20% tip ensures you get horrible service and a 3% surcharge we didn't even know about until we saw the bill. It was a total mess. And to top it all off we were there to celebrate a birthday.

Nice atmosphere and okay service, but the food and order accuracy were disappointing. Make sure to repeat your order multiple times, otherwise you may receive something different than what you asked for. The guacamole was very salty and came with mango sauce and kiwi. It could have been a great flavor combination, but the salt ruined it. When I asked for a replacement, I was told they only make one batch of guacamole per day. The steak burrito felt cheaply made and was mostly filled with onions and peppers instead of steak. The veggie burrito was similar, mostly rice with just a small amount of black beans. Overall, the ambiance is pleasant, but the food quality doesn’t match. Realistically, this is a 2-star experience.
