Let me start by saying I have been a waitress for 10years and completely understand the business. We made a reservation for 730pm, we arrived at 715pm figuring we would check in and hang out until our table was ready. But we were met with a line outside, with no host at the stand for the majority of the time. It appears as though she needed a second person to help her. But they were at capacity inside and all tables were reserved but the host was having conversations with each party that couldn't get in as the customers tried to debate with her where they would fit. We didn't get greeted until 737pm, they allegedly only hold your reservation for 10min after your assigned time, but we spent 22minutes in a line of people who couldn't get seated, granted it was only 4-5 parties in front of us it should have taken 30 seconds each to check them in. Everyone should have simply had their name taken and moved to the side, she almost gave away the table that couple behind us who had a reservation was assigned to, saying they were "late" to the party ahead of us, but they were in line waiting the same amount of time as us. That being said, after we finally got in, the food was amazing, the kitchen has it together 10/10. Our waitress was great, but random workers walking around, didn't look like managers or bus boys, kept trying to take food off our table that we weren't finished eating. We ordered multiple items and were splitting them and they took our plates, and twice tried to take our 1/2 eaten queso as we asked for more chips twice. It is not like we were there for a long time being annoying, we were there for 50 minutes and spent $100. I couldn't wait to leave.

Service is ok, seems like staff has some issues experience. The place is fun and decorated great but the food lacks the lustre of the decor. Hopefully they can catch it up to match the look of the place. I would definitely to the bar and have cocktails and chips and guacamole.

I didn't get double of what I ordered for the sharable meal and if the tacos are made fresh the should be ran through the oven cause they taste very gritty, other than that it was ok

Ladies lunch to plan a Saints game trip in October. Beautiful decor - love all the flowers! The food was wonderful - our group had the Birria, brisket tacos and steak asada tacos - all were delicious. To top it off we had the churros - great presentation in the little cart! Will definitely recommend this restaurant!

This is our last night in NOLA and we wanted to have a special dinner to celebrate our wonderful trip to NOLA. We were thrilled, the food was wonderful, very tasty and authentic and beautifully presented with flair and imagination. The ambience is great, very modern and cosmopolitan. The music was a little loud at some points, where we were seated outside. If you are sensitive to this just request a table inside. We loved the music and the whole vibe!!
