Marlo was awesome!! Attentive, but never hovered, answered all of our questions with a smile, made sure we had what we needed. Just overall a fantastic waitress!! I hate to say it but the manager wasn't as friendly. We saw the manager and Marlo bump into each other, clearly an accident, Marlo kept apologizing while it looked like the manager was about to punch her. She didn't but it definitely gave us the vibe that the staff is abused. I try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt, maybe she was having a bad day but she definitely seemed to have a negative impact on the staff and the energy changed when she left (she's why I'm leaving 4 stars instead of 5)....do with that what you will, but remember happiness is a choice! Anyway the food was great! We had a table of 5 and the young man (I didn't catch his name but he was shorter with dark hair and nice nails!) who seated us was super accommodating and made sure we were comfortable in our outdoor seating, which we had requested. We devoured a few chopped salads, double burger, avocado toast and shared a plate of pancakes. No crumb left behind!! Everyone was satisfied and happy! My friends said the drinks were excellent too. Although the weekend unlimited mimosas were super tempting, I decided to behave myself. If you like delicious Mexican food and great people watching I highly recommend a sidewalk table!! I'll definitely be back for mimosas and to eat my way through the menu. Read less

If you want PLANT-BASED PHILLY CHEESESTEAK EMPANADAS, come here!!! Had no idea such a thing could exist and it was perfectly done. The whole experience was so great as my mom and I were only in town for the evening and were looking for something yummy and plant-based. The ONLY thing I feel the need to comment on (and I legit never say anything negative in my reviews) is the hostess, Shannon, was incredibly (almost hilariously?) rude. It was such a small but impactful interaction: We walked in and it wasn’t clear if she worked there or if she was standing waiting for someone so we asked if she worked there. She said “yeah…?” And then we were like “oh okay great, we have a reservation!” Like, we were so excited to be there. And she legit just looked at us so unamused/deadpan and was like “… okay… ???” LOL like, what?! How is that your response to someone saying they have a reservation? Anyway, so we were like “um yeah so… we’d like to… sit?” And she just kept looking at us like we were the dumbest people on earth and finally asked what the name of the reservation was. I told her the last name and I saw it on the screen so I was like “oh it’s right there!” Then she practically rolled her eyes and then grabbed menus and sat us. Idk if she was just having a bad night or what but we were just so perplexed by that interaction. I sincerely hope her evening got better! While that was a big turn off, the service by our waitress Tatiana was superb!!! She was so kind and friendly and chatted with us about the city and different spots to hit up. Also the food was INNNNNCREDIBLEEEEE!!! Like, no amount of rudeness could take away from the deliciousness of the food, hahah. We got the empanadas, yuca, enchiladas, fish tacos, and coconut tres leches 🤤 everything was soOooOoOOooOo good omg. It doesn’t matter if you’re usually plant-based or not, you will love what you have here! I promise If I ever find myself back in this area I will definitely be returning (especially for those freaking cheesesteak empanadas, please don’t even stop making them!!!) 😋 Read less

This was a nice, cozy place. It's a smaller space but beautifully put together. The food comes out as it is finished being prepared, so waiting for everyone to get their food to eat may not be worth it. They were very accommodating with my food allergies, but I was very limited due to a coconut and soy allergy. The hearts of palm tacos were tasty, but I would have loved a sauce, but...allergies so all good. Read less

Finally tried this place. I found reservations for the same evening which was surprising cause it was packed. I’m vegetarian but not vegan but it’s nice to find a place where I can eat without stressing. I got the mango margarita with a spicy rim and I loved it. I also got the nachos. Nachos were really good. It was quite loud and the wait to get checked up on also took a while but understandable since it was so busy. Will return to try other options. Read less
Amazing! Love it every time. Can’t recommend their margaritas enough. Brunch is spectacular and the tacos are always a hit. Try the philly steak empanadas! Very unique and tasty.
