I honestly believe the positive reviews of this restaurant are written by the owner and probably close friends and family. I ordered the Cielo Mar Y Tierra- a go to dish for myself at any new Mexican restaurant I am trying. Firstly, the flour tortillas are not even made by hand. Sure they don't advertise it but the sheer simplicity should warrant at least an attempt. The flour tortillas somehow taste worse than store bought or even Taco Bell for that matter. The seasoning on the chicken was actually good but the chicken itself was way over cooked and really dry. I have zero clue why their are mushrooms on this plate at all or why the shrimp went over them. Traditionally not a thing and a weird combination. Shrimp seemed like they were boiled as they had a spongy consistency. Mushrooms are mushrooms, can't really mess that up but somehow they did. There are about 3 different cook batches from what it seems since they ranged from being raw to over cooked. Lastly, I've never had carne asada be so greasy and have a weird consistency. My fork could not pierce the meat! What even is that? Haha. With everything said, service was amazing and food came out decently quick while they were half full. Ambiance is extremely casual with some...

This is a long review and I apologize in advance. The server got my order wrong twice. I order grilled shrimp tacos (3) with nothing spicy on it. I got fish tacos. I ate one while they redid my order. The server brought me grilled shrimp tacos loaded with very hot salsa. I literally could not eat it. Rather than have them remake it once again, I decided to forgo it all together. Server offered me a free dessert. Fine, thank you. Got the bill and the full price of the taco platter was on it. I ate one taco and had ice cream (that they offered). I asked the server to please remove it and charge me for what I actually ate. 1 taco and ice cream. Server said that's why he gave me the complimentary ice cream and he couldn't change it because the manager wasn't there. Ice cream in no way makes up for an order messed up twice. Basically, I told him to figure it out because I wasn't paying for his mistake, especially when I couldn't eat it. He somehow figured it out and adjusted the bill to what I actually had....
