    Impatient reservationist Stephanie, IT IS YOUR JOB to know about menu/info of the place u work! So, hold it together & try not to snicker & make impatient clicking noises @ a customer.

    Get the Matador combo! Chicken Pio is great but, can't beat the French fries topped with hot dogs!

    Great atmosphere and ceviches, but skip the tamales. Really just corn meal with no filling. Just odd. Everything else is great tho!

    Matador combo + três leches cake. Not ideal for big groups imo- downstairs portion is too noisy.
