Vibes:
Live Music Showtime
Birthday & Celebration Central
Group Dining Gatherings
Outdoor Dining Oasis
A full-service Mexican dining room anchored by Mariachi Voces de Mexico de Raul Sanchez, who perform live six nights a week—making the music as much of the draw as the mole poblano or chamorro de puerco. The dinner-club energy runs loud between sets and louder during them, which is exactly the point for birthdays, group celebrations, and couples who want a night out with substance. Valet parking and outdoor seating round out a place built for lingering, not rushing.
Must-Try Dishes:
Salmon al Tequila, Chamorro de Puerco, Mole Poblano
