Authentic mexican food with a contemporary twist! The menu features butternut squash enchiladas, fish tacos, quesadillas and, my favorite, pan-seared tilapia with the signature Adobo sauce (Tilapia a la talla). The fresh guacamole, prepared tableside, is a must and all entrees are served with corn tortillas. This restaurant has a great selection of meat, chicken, fish and vegetarian dishes. You're certain to find something to suit your tastes.
More importantly....the margaritas! Shaken and poured at your table, be sure to try one (or several). I also had a perfectly prepared mojito (the traditional cuban cocktail, which can be tricky to get right).
The service was outstanding. The waiter was helpful and friendly, as was the rest of the staff we encountered. I also enjoyed the atmosphere and decor. This would be a great place for a dinner date or an evening out with friends!
