" An average experience overall. The tacos were edible, but I felt they could use more seasoning. The service was polite, but again, nothing stood out. I might check out their happy hour next time to see if it makes a difference. " (*Curated Review*)

" First time here, and I had high hopes based on the reviews. I tried the shrimp and fish tacos, and while they were good, they didn't blow me away. The atmosphere is lovely, but I expected more excitement from the seasoning. The service was fantastic, though, and I'm willing to give it another shot. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really looking forward to a good experience but sadly left disappointed. The food was bland, and the service could have been better. The ambiance was nice, but it wasn’t enough to save the meal. Maybe they were just having an off night. " (*Curated Review*)

" Not worth the wait! The food was okay, but the experience was marred by long wait times. I hope it was just an off night because I’ve heard great things. I would think twice before coming back, but the tacos were at least decent. " (*Curated Review*)
