Most Disliked
Some patrons have noted occasional communication challenges with staff regarding certain orders, though the friendly attitude usually makes up for it. While the atmosphere is inviting, those seeking a quieter dining experience might find it a bit lively, especially during peak hours. A few guests mentioned that popular menu items can sell out, so arriving early is often recommended if you're set on trying specific dishes. Parking can also be a hassle during busy times, although there's a paid multi-storey car park nearby. These minor inconveniences do not overshadow the overall quality of the food and service, making it a worthwhile visit.

Moshe
Great place. We were not into tacos that day but the place had space so we tried it out. Wow, the food was so good and fresh. We tried fish, chicken and lamb tacos. All great. Drinks were awesome. We even had a quasadia, yes it too was tasty. We thought we had no room for desert but how can you say no to churoes. Only small negative, as a gringo the staff did not understand our humor and some orders.

Mexican is our family "go to" celebration food, Aida did not disappoint!!! While delicious food is always important, an above average basic margarita is a MUST! For our family it is a cornerstone of our experience. The margaritas were awesome! You can choose from a couple of flavors, whether you want them spicy or not, and if you want salt, sugar or Tajin on the rim. They were well made and, most importantly, I didn't wonder if the put in the tequila (which lately has been an Issue at other places). On top of the great drinks, the food was delicious and ample! Four of us ordered 3 delicious tacos. From a fullness perspective I would have been fine with two but, I ordered it, it was delicious, and I refuse to regret eating it! On top of all of that the service exceptional! All of the necessary stuff that needs to be done for a good meal was done very well but, what put the service over the top was, and this is such a rare happening, they made us feel wanted! Kindness and GENUINE smiles are PRICELESS!!!

By far the best Mexican food I've had in Miami. Delicious tacos and mezcal cocktails. We got to meet the owners, a husband and wife from Mexico City. They're there cooking and talking with guests. It was fun!

We tried 4 dishes and they were all phenomenal. The stand outs were the shrimp tacos and the mango margarita. The service was excellent and very attentive. 10/10 recommend. The owners were very kind as well.

Amazing service! Food and cocktails were great. One of the employees, whom I assume was a manager, was enthusiastic to share with me recommendations on some mezcal. Additionally, my wife wasn’t feeling very well by the time our food was delivered and the staff was happy to box it up for us to go. Excellent service and food. Definitely recommend this place!

This is one of the latest gems in coconut grove. Amazing menu, decent prices (the lunch menu is unbeatable!) and great service. Everything tasted amazing and authentic and the staff was extremely friendly. If I had only one suggestion to make: please make this babies/toddlers friendly and install a changing station in the restroom :)

Absolutely great all around. The ambience is nice and modern, the service is super nice and friendly, and the prices are right in line for this type of restaurant. Full service bar, the food is spectacular. We had the tuna appetizer and the sea bass and tempura fish tacos for entrees and we would have ordered seconds if we could. The caramel cookie for dessert was spectacular! Will come again for sure.
