Ambience: It was great! Aesthetically pleasing. Music was on point. Everywhere looked well organized & clean. 👌🏼 Food: We were disappointed. Empanadas tasted pre-frozen & old. Chicken tasted bland. Platanos maduros were burnt. 🫤 Bar: Drinks were on point. Bar tender was super nice! ✨ Service: the host was great! Our server, however, seemed disoriented and confused. 🫨 Don’t know if he was new, but he definitely needed support and better training.
Really dope place! Great vibe and cocktails. The food was okay. Went here for a date night with the Mrs. The drinks were good and some of the tapas were solid, but this place has potential depending on what you go for. I would recommend if you're looking for a trendy cocktail bar. I would not recommend it for dinner. The only dishes I liked were the empanadas and the chicken dish. The shrimp was decent. I'd pass on everything else that we tried. Food: 3.5/5 Drinks: 4.5/5 Service: 4/5 Price: 4/5 Ambiance: 5/5 Overall: 4.2/5
Everyone was super friendly, and the mocktails were amazing! well crafted, not just an after thought. The tapas did not disappoint, we got the butternut squash empanadas, the steak empanadas, the plantain, and a chicken dish. That was good enough for 2!
This is an amazing black owned spot in downtown Oakland. I went to a black tech meet up here a few months ago and I went back yesterday and it was worth it. Our waiter was amazing, the food was great, and the drinks did the trick. We didn't get to try the bone marrow but just about tried everything else. Will be going back. Food 9/10 - would be higher if they had larger portion sizes Drinks 10/10 - not crazy expensive and very good quality Service 10/10 - waiter was on point and gave recommendations Decor 9/10 - lots of color and cool decoration Price is high but food is good
My friend was celebrating their birthday and decided to check out this place. The vibe was fantastic and the music elevated the feels. We got some delicious food and amazing drinks. If you are looking for a bar with great Latino music to have a chill good time, look no further!
