This place was absolutely AMAZING!!! We got here at towards the end of brunch,Bri started as our server and she had the coolest vibe. She gave great recommendations and was on point with everything!! Joy came in later to help and she was just like her name.. a complete Joy. She was also very friendly and swift with her service.The food was absolutely amazing. I highly recommend the cornbread, and the fried rice?! We also had the steak, chrome, bacon fajitas, and ended with the churros.. OMG!! The drinks and everything was an experience and absolutely amazing. The vibe, and the atmosphere was so cool. I will absolutely be back!!Hats off to the chef and team.. this is something special!!

Wow this place is absolutely amazing! The foods, drinks, service, and the entire experience were all 5 stars!! We are already planning our next visit. The cornbread is to die for, margs were perfect, fajitas and enchiladas were SO flavorful and tasty. Do the ring my bell shot for a super fun and unforgettable experience! I can’t wait to come back. Melissa our server was so amazing and attentive. Chef even came over and chatted which was soo cool too!

This was hands down one of the best meals I’ve had since moving to Raleigh. Unique Mexican dishes with a twist! The place is beautiful and inviting, with a gorgeous bar area. Everything we ordered was delicious and it was the brunch menu! I can’t wait to come back for dinner to try more dishes.

The chicken enchiladas were phenomenal! Staff and service were nothing short of exceptional, and the cocktails are to die for. With a very extensive and flavorful menu and hand-crafted cocktails, I can't wait to go back and try everything. Looking forward to future visits.

Came here for brunch for the first time with my hubby. First, we really liked High Horse and wanted to try this. We were seated at one of the first tables for the day and sat for almost 20 mins before being recognized and serviced. Their recent article stated family friendly and Chef wanted to make it reasonably priced. That is far beyond the truth. Brunch beef tacos are $24. The best part about the plate is the guacamole and the corn tortillas. The Steak is fried beyond recognition. It appears to look like fried livers. Dried out with no flavor. Absolutely disgusting. And don’t call that bacon, that’s either pork belly or fat back. it should be stated on the menu that it’s fried. Probably the worst tacos we have ever had and we have traveled all over the state. The drinks are yummy but small and very pricey. We do not recommend. I did highly recommend the chicken enchiladas they were yummy and filling. Service was Mediocre.

Food! Atmosphere! Drinks! Staff! All outstanding!! Wow I am blown away by everything. The food especially the guacamole, enchiladas as well as the fried rice was so good. My smoking margarita on point! Also, how can you go wrong with sparklers leading you to a shot in a ice cube surrounded by bubbles and then a chance to throw the ice at a bell. This place is beyond words awesome and cannot wait to go back many times! You need to try!

Very high quality upscale Mexican food and drink… original and creative flavors. Nice decor,patio,and bar and very good service.Highly recommended.

Best in Cary! Chef Katsuji did it again, his creative spirit is beyond compare, his “passion” for preparing authentic delicious cuisine and interactions with the guests is truly astonishing. His smile and laugh is absolutely recognizable throughout the chic designed location which naturally causes a cheers from patrons with one of the most delicious hand crafted house cocktails. Briana is an excellent server, well versed in the menu, timely service, great professionalism and smiled! Ordered several items off the menu which all was well portioned, and delicious. It was so delicious ordered several items to-go! A’Verde & Chef Katsuji is a Cary staple and Congratulations! 5stars

Not your typical Mexican joint and thankful for it! From the moment our group walked in we new it was special. Seating time was reasonable and the hostess was in great spirits...bonus! Our waitress was Sarah and she was on point with recommendations and service. We would have never known the restaurant was less than a couple months old. It seemed to be a well oiled machine. The drinks were complex and well thought out. If you want spice try the oysters. They are spicy AF. The corn side and corn bread were big winners. For entre' the Pork Belly Tacos were amazing with the pork shoulder close behind. Price was reasonable for high quality food in a metro area. If your looking at price this may not be your first stop for Mexican but for me it was one of the best cultural dinning experiences I have had since taking the mask off ;) Phil was gracious and warm as he checked on our table. Don't forget to try and Ring the Bell before you leave!

Visited this new restaurant a few days after they opened. We loved it! The decor is amazing and trendy, like nothing else in Cary. Definitely not your typical Mexican restaurant. Very unique dishes and the cocktails were superb! Definitely going back!
