"An all-around nice spot in Beverly Hills to grab some good Mexican food and drinks. The atmosphere is open with a welcoming yet refined ambiance. The service was super friendly and attentive too. The food is on the pricier side, but pretty tasty and a good stop between shopping in the area. They have daily lunch specials from 11 to 4 pm and AYCE Sunday Brunch for about $50 with a Bottomless Mimosa add-on for another $25. Very tempting, but I'd probably get kicked out of the stores after being blitz. Anyways, I came here for lunch and tried their Maracuya and Watermelon Mojito for drinks. The Maracuya was an all around good cocktail with the smoky mezcal. I asked for it a little spicy and they added some jalapeños for me. The Watermelon Mojito was like summer. Very juicy, sweet, and bright! For food, they are known for their guacamole so definitely went with that. It came with a citrusy green salsa and a smokey hot red. Pretty good and great for sharing. Really fresh guac that is light and airy being a good mix between chunky and smooth. I also got their Mole Poblano. Super delish and highly recommended! The mole was sweet and deep with smoky notes. It was served over some shredded chicken that was cooked percectly! It came with some rice, plantains, and tortillas to build a taco. Really good mix of carbs! I enjoyed every bite and would get it again. All in all, I enjoyed this place! Aside it being a bit pricy, it had good service, food, and ambiance!"

"We went to dinner and had reservations at 8:45pm. The girl said he would seat us as soon as the tables were free he said approximately 10 minutes…. So 8 of us went to the bar and had some Drinks. 20 MINUTES later we asked the girl what happened she said.. “oh that table is paying for it’s bill 5 more minutes”. We said nicely ok. Then 15 minutes after that, we see cakes being sent to the table that the girl told us was for us she basically lied to us. We asked the manager what’s going on he said you’ll be seated soon. One and a half hours later we got seated. The manager didn’t apologize. One time didn’t even offer. Hey, here’s a free dessert because you waited over an hour and a half!! he was so rude!!! so disrespectful!!! at the end of the night the manager comes up to us and says “ what do you want me to do so don’t pay gratuity to your server!!!!!!!!” Omg!! Omg!!!! Shame on this manager for even speaking this way to us, he threw the check at our table and walked away. We didn’t even ask for anything just for an apology that we had to wait for an hour and a half and this is the way the MANAGER ACTS!!!!!!! we told our nice Server what the manager had told us! We gave our server extra extra money just for being so nice!! Shame on your manager!!!! we have told many many friends about our story, and we are never dining with you guys ever again!!! Your manager has no experience and no manners!"

"She ordered a meal described as a "butterflied filet mignon accompanied by typical sides, including a mole enchilada." To our surprise, what was brought to the table was skirt steak. When I informed the waiter, he said he would fetch someone senior. The lead person arrived, and I pointed out the difference between the skirt steak on my wife’s plate and the filet mignon on my dad’s plate. He promised to get the manager. The manager came over and asked if there was a problem. I clarified that there was no issue; we just wanted to ensure we were charged the correct price for the skirt steak, which was listed on the menu as a similar dish. The manager assured us it would be taken care of and told us to enjoy our dinner. After finishing our meal, we received a bill that still had the incorrect pricing based on the manager's earlier concession. When I brought this to the manager's attention, he claimed there was no error and that skirt steak and filet mignon were the same cut of beef, just prepared differently. I explained that they come from different parts of the cow and that I wasn’t trying to get something for free; I was simply trying to get a fair price for the dish we received. I reminded him that he had already agreed to adjust the price at our table. The manager appeared frustrated by my inquiry and seemed reluctant to offer a fair resolution. Eventually, he made the adjustment, but I doubt he ever truly understood the rationale behind it. His customer service and negotiation skills left much to be desired, and he clearly lacked knowledge about beef cuts and food preparation."
