In the area for PAX East and enjoyed dinner here. On our first visit, the waiter was kind enough to explain the process of ordering. Kindly and patiently addressed our questions. The food, drinks, and environment were enjoyable. I look forward to a return visit!

I had a lovely lunch here with my family. The service and atmosphere were amazing. The food was great too, but some of it was a bit too spicy for us. We ordered a quesadilla with chicken, some tacos with tuna, fish, cauliflower, and duck, churros, and ice cream. They also gave us samples of chicken tortilla soup and chorizo to taste. We really appreciated their kid-friendliness and politeness.

Absolutely loved it here! Hollywood is a whole vibe. The staff were friendly, quick, and on point. Alec whipped up the best drinks—seriously, it’s like he read our minds. They totally got our style and made sure we were taken care of, even when things got busy. Top-tier vibes all around!

Beautiful, fun restaurant in a great location on a central intersection. Accessible by the T, walking or car (metered parking nearby). Pleasant interiors, beach theme, nice upbeat music, not too loud (there's also acoustic ceiling so the whole place is not too loud). Family friendly atmosphere. Excellent service, tasty and fresh food, fair and reasonable prices. Nice cocktail bar. Very good experience

One of my favorite taco place!! I was eagerly looking forward to dining at the Brookline location. Undoubtedly the ambiance and food is excellent. The only thing that concerns me is the wait time, as we had to wait for an hour (Friday evening). However, once you get a table, you would forget everything and indulge in tacos ( Worth the wait time!!)

We had such an amazing experience here during our visit to Boston! My son is a celiac and Jamie, the manager was just so amazing and understanding. The whole staff was so careful, took such good care of us and made sure all the food was gluten free. The food was absolutely delicious and so flavorful. We loved the place so much, we came back again! Highly recommend!

Food was awesome, it was our first time here and were gonna come regularly now for sure. James came to our table to just check in and we had a great convo about avacados. Him and the rest if the staff seem very dedicated.

I knew when I entered the restaurant that I would give it a good review. The restaurant has a super cute beach theme from the waiters' outfits to the food itself to the pictures on the walls. The food is really well priced and amazing is an understatement. What I also really appreciate about the restaurant is the volume of the music. It's loud enough that it provides a nice atmosphere but quiet enough that you can hear the people in your group. I highly recommend anything with the spiced chicked verde, it's moist and well seasoned and just overall delicious. For just 10 per person, I left more than full and very happy.
