| - I like the ambiance - there's a lot of detail in the interior. However, it's pricey. Especially for Kensington, in my opinion.
Considering that this place was opened by the same owners as Bar Raval, which is one of my all time favourites, I'm fairly disappointed.
We came on a Tuesday night around 9pm. Only one guy was serving - it didn't take long for the orders but he didn't seem to really want to be there, which is fair if you're serving the joint solo. More or less: I was hungry and I felt bad for ordering food.
It was margarita night which meant $3 off, but it was still $10 for a margarita - didn't feel quite like a deal to me, but much expected from a place like this. The margarita wasn't special either - tasted like a frat party premix.
The food was okay but for its size and price, it's $$.
I tried all three tacos (beef brisket, pork and squid), I was only impressed by the pork. The guac and chips were okay - the chips are hella salty, so beware! I liked the touch of cranberries in the guac.
I wouldn't go again on a weekday night. From the other reviews, I feel like it might be better on a busy weekend... however, that sounds like a nightmare to me.
