Came by last night (Wednesday) after being quoted an hour and a half wait at Bakersfield. Our party of 7 was seated right away at a long high table. The decor of the restaurant is bright and trendy. It took me a while to realize this place used to be Cantina 1511! They have an open kitchen which is fun and the bar area is lovely. Our waiter was hilarious and sassy and very patient with our large party. We ordered cocktails (the pineapple margarita was very dangerous) and queso (yum!). The chips on their own were delicious and the queso was stringy and divine. Half of our table shared tapas and the other half had tacos. The tacos reps really enjoyed the pork belly taco but were not so crazy about the carnitas with peanut slaw. As for the tapas, we ordered the salmon (delicious!), tamale (super good), and short ribs (also good!). I loved sharing small plates and talking about the food. I think the taco orderers were jealous. Before bringing out our check our server brought us tequila infused pineapples as a treat, he really was wonderful (I think his name was Eric but I can't remember because he initially joked his name was Jennifer). We had a great time and I'll probably be back sans husband. Definitely a great place for a GNO!
