    My wife and I celebrated our 1 year wedding anniversary and the experience was 10/10. Our server was very attentive and kind , the food was delicious and served quickly, and we even had moments in between to take pictures in their mirror area. Overall was a beautiful experience we would most definitely come again .

    A wonderful surprise in McAllen. This place seems more fitting to New York or Los Angeles or Mexico City. It is that’s sophisticated. First, the setting in a non-descriptive shopping center stepping through the front door you enter into a chic luxurious space that immediately sets the ambience for an upscale experience. The Welcome and the weight staff throughout the meal service were outstanding. Incredibly warm, accommodating and gracious, they made the evening a very special one. Now the food and beverage. Absolutely top-notch in creativity, taste, variety and presentation.  this is truly refined, upscale Mexican cuisine.

    It was mainly my fault for booking a place that had so much shellfish when I have an allergy. It was girls night out in my defense and my friend wanted to try it. The server was so attentive and kind. He was funny and sociable. The food came out so quickly and the drink my girlfriend got came with a Polaroid photo of us. The cauliflower was amazing!! The beet appetizer was the first time I had beets and wasn’t for me but my girl friend loved it. I ordered the ceviche without the shrimp and it was okay. Not the best I’ve had but it was good. My girlfriend ordered the chocolate cheesecake. That thing was a tower with two cake slices on it. It was massive. The music was loud but I was also pretty close to the speaker. The vibe gives dinner/ clubbing. VERY CLEAN. As someone who sees the little things the ceiling decorations didn’t even have dust! It was a fun experience.

    Gran servicio, comida buena pero nada sorprendente, presentación de platillos y bebidas muy atractiva. Lo único que me parece es que es precios demasiado elevados, no lo ameritan.
