Mexican food in a lively environment with very professional wait staff

Great and inviting Mexican food place. Beautiful restaurant with great ambiance. Service was great but our waiter went MIA for a while at the tail end of our dinner, but before that, he was stellar.

Like always, nice food, nice environment, waiters could be more pleasant but what you are going to do? You can't have everything.

It is a little noisy. Food is great as well as service. The carrot juice is yummy.

Service awesome without annoying you. Food and drinks are delicious. The atmosphere in general is 5 stars.

Service and hospitality were great. Arracera marinada was tender and delicious. Mashed potatoes were rich and tasty. Guacamole was really good with their chicharonnes. La salsa roja para las enchiladas estuvo un poco dulce para mi. The platanos fritos were really good too. I left there and was so full i didn't want to eat until the following day. Thank you.

Love the food and the service here.

Excellent service and food, very comprehensive Mexican menu including typical Bajio food.
