| - We went with a party of eight on their opening night and enjoyed everything. We started out with traditional guacamole and salsa, along with black bean salsa. All were excellent. Here's a tip on the guacamole and salsa trios- they are tiny portions like in a small ramekin. Go for a few larges of you want to share. It's worth the extra few bucks. I had two tacos- chicken and duck. The duck had goat cheese and roasted red pepper. Even with two corn tortillas, it fell apart but who cares? It was delicious! Please, if you're going to order tacos, get corn tortillas. In my opinion, flour tortillas just aren't authentic. My sons ordered Cubanos and Chivitos and split them both. Surprisingly, they both preferred the Chivitos. We paired our sandwiches and tacos with Mexi Cali corn and mac and cheese. Their sides are small and so are the prices that go with them! Had there been more, I wouldn't have been able to eat them so I think the portions were "spot on".
We didn't want to cheat ourselves out of desert so we did those family style, too. The bread pudding looks more like French toast since they don't cut the bread up like most places. Again, who cares?! It was crazy good! The French toast was good but probably not something I'd want to order again. My kids raved about the Choco Tacos, which were pretty dang big! I had a Cuban coffee and it was good. They roast the beans in Kent at a brewery- I forgot the name of it, sorry. Anyway, our server told me they were hoping to get an espresso machine. If you haven't had a Cuban espresso, you're missing out!
I am not sure if there were other restrooms, but the one we used was a single-use restroom, which kinda surprised me. I'm a commercial designer so I understand codes and design restrictions, but adding an extra stall would've been great, at least for the women. Speaking of design, the entire restaurant is stellar! The outdoor area, bar and large dining areas are gorgeous! Hats off to the designer(s). The lighting fixtures were pretty bad ass.
The patio will be removed when they demo the plaza (to create a new road), but it is dog friendly! When the patio is gone, they will have a roof-top patio, so I heard! They are also working on an event space in the lower level that can be rented out. I'm not in the know, just relaying what some staff members mentioned. Either way, what's not the be excited about?!
