I'm trying to be very fair with this review. I did struggle at first with a fancy Mexican inspired restaurant in the old penguin. It's weird to be in there and for the server to immediately ask if there are any dietary issues. "Are you gluten free? Vegan?" These questions would never have been asked in the Penguin. It's just strange.
I'm not judging based on that though. That just isn't fair.
I didn't try the drink menu. Honestly, because the drinks were pricey. However, I have only heard really good things about them and I do want to try one some day. They looked beautiful.
The guacamole and homemade chips were delicious. The tacos seems to be the issue. They say it is tapas style, but how do we share small tacos? The tacos were okay. At first it seems reasonable- $5 taco. But you need at least 2 to be satisfied. They are good, but not blown away amazing.
It is definitely more of a date place and don't go when really hungry.
