a great latin restaurant that serves a wonderfull paella and arroz con pollo (amongst other things). the food is tasty and ample, if not super sized ! and very affordable too. my husband is a fan of their margarita and fresh salsa. add the patio ambience and you have a winner for summer afternoons and winter nights :)

Went here with some girlfriends last weekend and fell in love. I wasn't expecting to like it, but I did. Nice casual vibe and nice waitstaff. I ordered the beans and rice and maduros. The beans and rice were wonderful, but the maduros were burnt. The prices on the menu was really good and had nice serving sizes. My friends... More

This is pretty much average Mexican but the margaritas are delicious. The value is fine but this place gets pretty packed often.

Really good Latin fare. I like the warm Artichoke Dip which is served with large chunks of tender artichoke and flavored perfectly. Order the bowl-sized for sharing at the table. The sodas are served from an ice-cold can with a glass and straw. There is a large selection of Latin pressed sandwiches, Quesadillas, Paella, Mexican favorites, burritos, enchiladas, and tacos....

And the server didn't know English. This was a problem. The food was ok, not incredible, but really reasonably priced. I doubt I would go again, but this wasn't a disaster. The pizza place next door looked more interesting

The food here is decent, and the balcony is great in nice weather, but I just had chips and queso and guac (at an off-meal hour), and was charged extra for the chips. Three dollars extra. The manager kept pointing to the part of the menu where it says that chips and salsa are extra if you don't order a... More

A group of associates and I stopped here for dinner last week and enjoyed ourselves a casual spanish dinner on the patio. Yes, they had a paella that was decent, maybe a little dry for my taste. The group eat everything and drinks were pretty good including a few pictures of red sangria. This is not a fancy place but... More

My mother and I are visiting the Buckhead area of Atlanta and decided to go to this restaurant after reading great reviews about it (albeit other locations). We walked in and there are 4 tables crammed together and the "kitchen" is basically right where all the tables are. It was hot and the 2 male waiters were laughing and BS'ing... More
