worst dining experience ever, but nice staff
1 Star Rating: Not Recommended

I went on the rave from another friend, but I do not see the allure. The guacamole was like soup! THey served my friend her drink first and I had to wait 15 minutes for my margarita ($15). Then, they served her salad and main course and left me waiting for my shrimp tacos for 35 minutes. One of the chefs came out and apologized and said it would be right out. 10 minutes later, it still hadn't appeared but eventually, was served by the chef himself who profusely apologized and comped the plate for us, even though we didn't complain. The waiter and chef were gracious and sweet, which I will not forget, but nor will I forget the $15 margaritas whch were served in glasses the size of Dixie cups! So if you are hungry, thirsty and like good food, steer clear. If you like nice people but don't care about any of the above, go right ahead!

Pros: Nice staff

Cons: abosolutely terrible food, overpriced tiny drinks

Editor's Review

Patricio Sandoval's ultra-fresh ceviches and tacos go from East Village to West and the bold flavors follow.  See the full editorial review.

Insider Tips

What to Drink

The house margaritas are outstanding, especially the citrus version with orange, grapefruit, lemon and a bit of habanero for zing.
