" The service was prompt, but the food was only average. I was expecting more excitement in flavors for the price they charge. The atmosphere was fine, just nothing memorable. I might try going for happy hour next time. " (*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*)
