| - The location always threw me off about this place but once I got there, the energy and vibe made me feel like I was in another city. so vibrant with great selection of music while seeing the views of the chef at work.
I consider this place a 'quick service' restaurant minus the quick. I walked in very confused; wasn't sure if I went up to the 'food truck' to place my order or sat down and had a server come to us. The gentlemen, not 100% sure of his role told us to choose any seat and a server would come to us. This guy was the one we placed our drink order with; micheleda and a Bloody Mary. I felt like the process was very delayed in getting drinks but then again there was only one bartender for a Saturday night. Aside from that, the drinks were perfectly made! Our actual server came by and took our order. We placed chips and salsa as our appetizer because let's be real, if a Mexican place failed at a good guacamole and salsa dish then we would be in for a not so good Mexican experience. This place passed! It reminded me of my best friends mother true authentic cooking. Our order was in and was eyeing everything that came by. Mind you, there were only 3 tables at this time. We devoured our entrees and continued to sit at our table with no drinks; water or adult beverage. yet, the server just leaned up against the truck with her colleague and chatted while making direct contact with us and never approaching us with 'is there anything else' we can get for you.
As a service critic, when a server drops off a dish that you ordered and sees an empty one, they should take it. Well, dishes piled up quick!
This place does lack service and has a very very laid back vibe so if you're there with no time constraint, it's definitely worth it.
Again, great energy, pricing is affordable and great food. I just wish their service was more focused on the little things.
