    One entree in our group was really disappointing. The guacamole cobb salad. It was ordered with chicken. The chicken wasn't freshly cooked. It was definitely cooked several days ago....it was dry...so disappointing considering how expensive this restaurant is. Not sure we'll come back....too many other great choices at Disney Springs.

    The food in the service was excellent! A little bit pricey, but to be expected when you’re at a place like Disney Springs. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting the area and try the habanero chicken.

    Portions were fairly small considering the very high prices. We sat outside which was lovely. Server was attentive but not very professional.

    The restaurant has a very innovative menu. We had the duck enchiladas and the flautas. The flautas were excellent with a light, crispy quality. The duck was a carnitas which went well with the whole meal. Good drinks too.

    Our server, Melany M, was excellent!! She was our server during a prior visit and she remembered us. She is very sweet, patient, attentive and was ready to answer any questions we had. She is super pleasant and a great asset for the restaurant to have!
