Amazing assortment of tapas. So delicious, the perfect bites packed with flavors. Good paellas, although they come out a bit too quickly and add a result, the Safran doesnt have time to infuse with the rice fully. Great service too. The wine selection is descent and very well priced.
This Mexican restaurant is our all time favorite! We had a wonderful meal! We ordered Scallops, shrimp, fish, and pork chop. Everyone at the table enjoyed their dinner. The atmosphere is cozy and lively. They also have the best guacamole ...
The food was very good and the atmosphere was fantastic. This place doesnt look like much from the outside but on the inside they really have nailed it. I grew up all over the Southwest and the offerings for Mexican food where I live is limited and not very authentic. Jalapenos definitely hits the mark. We will be back.
