One of the worst brunches I've had in Brooklyn. The eggs were powdered eggs, waitress had a tude, n she didn't even offer us our tea or juice

I had the camarones y arroz ... Guess who got shellfish poisoning!!!

Really shocked that these tips speak well of the margaritas. Margaritas are supposed to have fresh lime, and not be carbonated or on tap. Terribly disappointed.

Very good tortillas

Tamarind mezcal drinks w/ chili-salt are the new margaritas.

The pepino margarita gives new meaning to the phrase "cool as a cucumber".

Guac is decent, but the queso fundido is just bizarre.
