Really nice place. Food was amazing and our waiter Miguel was amazing. He looked after us so well and it made the whole evening very enjoyable. Despite being very busy we always felt well looked after. Thanks Miguel

Friends booked for a group meal not knowing I was allergic to tomato…Mexican isn’t usually a safe bet for me! I have never received such wonderful care and effort around finding me a meal to eat. Food was absolutely lovely and the staff were even better. Highly recommend!!!
