The 6 course tasting menu is a great option to know some of the dishes available. There are some options which were not as amazing as expected, but in general I really did love it, and would definitely return.

This restaurant was recommended by a Mexican friend who is a foodie so we were really looking forward to it. The room where we were seated and were the only guests was lacking in warmth as was the wait staff. While the service was efficient, we felt rushed and found the food only average.
