Stopped by during our road trip down to LA. A fancy kind of restaurant, by which I mean, the décor is modern Mexican style, the service team are pretty & cool vibe. But the food is average compared to the interior design. More of paying for the dinning environment than for good food.Located in downtown center, easy to find roadside parking, a nice neighborhood to walk about.

Great fresh Mexican food that was not heavy Good Margarita Lovely outdoor dining on sidewalk patio so you can watch people go by and the outdoor diners across the street Great waitress Lovely decor

Wow! This place was off the hook. We had a party of 10 and they easily accommodated us on a Sunday at 11:30amWe started with cocktails. The Paloma, jalapeño pineapple margarita and cane pina colada were amazing. Can’t go wrong with any of these.Chile relleno fundido is a must. I think I could have and should have stopped after this. The salsa, chips and guacamole appetizer was phenomenal.Lunches included multiple orders of the short rib tacos. They were genuinely excellent. My hubby tried it with the reaper ghost pepper salsa. It’s light you up on fire extremely hot but delicious.Multiple orders of the ahi quinoa salad were also ordered. It was good but not amazing. It lacked flavor but we still ate every bite.Ahi crudo was the bomb. I wish I had ordered this instead of the quinoa.Enchilada pollo gringa was also excellent.Service was good, the restaurant vibe was excellent. Highly recommend trying this place.A solid 4 star, weak 5 star because we have a cilantro allergy and they couldn’t accommodate no cilantro in a few menu items.

We stopped in for an early dinner at this popular spot in Paso Robles and were impressed by the interior design and cool bar. The facility was clean and yet had that rustic kind of feel. The specialty cocktails were delicious and service was good. Entrees were well presented and delicious. I'll be going back if we ever visit again.Urban Cowgill

First the restaurant made accommodations for our large party close to the time they were stop letting people in. The waitress and service from the support staff was great. The food was amazing. Everyone in our group of 15 people loved their dinners. I highly recommend this place.

The first day we were there service was great. The second day I think they were slower and they let the bar back do most of the serving - it was that great. That aside though, the food was pretty good both days, and the drinks were excellent. It's just what we wanted - some good Mexican food and to try and have some good tecquilla, mezcal and drinks - it didn't disappoint.

Ordered the surf & turf (tacos), and the ceviche. Food was excellent and the staff was friendly and attentive.

Delish! Fun drinks and fun atmosphere. Halibut was a little dry but if that is my only complaint I’d say overall it was a really good meal. The homemade guacamole with the salsa trio is a must. We also indulged in the oysters. Brussel sprouts with the main meal was another win! Get reservations ahead of time. It was a packed house!

Good decent dinner. New flare of mexican food in paso. Very crowded. Service was good. Cocktail list is huge. Located in downtown.

Went here on some recommendations. Really disappointed with the food. Started with octopus ceviche which was poor--rubbery and bland. The tacos were worse--I had carnitas and my wife had fish. Both were mushy with no taste. My wife asked for some hot sauce to try and fix them up and we were charged $3 extra!
