It has Mexican and Latin flavors in a hip and trendy environment. The decor is like being in the courtyard of a Latin house. Colours, lights, balconies overlooking the internal courtyard and loud music. Plates are for sharing as is the jug of margarita. It is also a great place for drinks with a great selection of cocktails.
