  • Overall: This is a great place to get nice food and drinks. This place has so much potential and id love to see it packed on a Saturday night. I love going out for drinks and this place will be on our rotation from now on. Atmosphere: My bf and I came here on a Saturday night around 9:15 pm. For most of the meal, we were the only people there. It’s a beautiful restaurant with a beautiful and well stocked bar. It was kind of awkward halfway through the meal because they turned off the music and it added to the fact that no one was there. I was confused because I thought they were closed and we were overstaying our time because of it. We wanted to get another round of drinks but we elected to leave because it was awkward. Service: Jayden was our server tonight. She was so kind and knowledgeable of the menu. I appreciated that she took the time to explain everything to us and showed genuine enthusiasm for the dishes and drinks. They offer Acquia Panna as their water which is always a good sign in a restaurant, especially since corpus tap water is horrible. Drinks: Fantastic and a great value!! For the quality, drinks are so affordable. Not pictured, but we also go the mole Manhattan. They served it with a Luxardo cherry so that was a great sign. It featured mole bitters which added a nice spice flavor (maybe star anise or cinnamon) to the drink. Pineapple pisco was delicious. It had a good amount of alcohol and it wasn’t too sweet. It was the second time I had pisco and the sourness of the pineapple and the egg white foam complemented it well. About $10 - $15 a drink. We moved here from Dallas and this establishment was comparable to some of the places we frequent (like Paradiso but cheaper lol). This bar alone should be keeping the place packed at night but for whatever reason, this isn’t the case. Our server explained that this area is a residential area with an older population but that shouldn’t matter because Corpus Christi is small to begin with so it’s not like people would have to drive far to get here. Perhaps people don’t know about it? Or maybe cocktail bars aren’t popular here? Food: food was delicious! Jayden recommended the Queso fundido to us which was excellent. The salsas it came with were great and had a good spice level. Agua chile had a beautiful presentation. I do wish the shrimp had absorbed more of the flavor of the liquid. Robalo was so good! I love a whole fried fish and I’m so glad we ordered this. It was more than enough to share. They only gave us 2 corn tortillas with it though so next time I hope they offer a few more. The carnations as decorations were kind of unnecessary though. We will be back and I hope next time this place will be packed as it should be!

  • Stopped in here after a Google search for Mexican restaurants near me. I arrived shortly after 11am and was promptly greeted and welcomed. I requested a booth or table back in the corner so I could read while waiting for my next doctor's appointment. My serve was extremely attentive and happily explained the menu. I ordered off the lunch menu. My server recommended the Birro taco plate. It came out more quickly than I expected. The tacos, charcoal beans, and rice were fresh and hot. The charro beans had a good flavor and were cooked well. The tacos were delicious! They had a spicy kick to them and the dipping sauce added to the flavor. I asked for some green sauce but that was not necessary. The tacos had enough kick to stand on their own. My server was very patient and polite and always greeted me with a welcoming smile. This was a wonderful surprise for lunch. I would eat here again.

  • Olivia is an amazing bartender, she’s always attentive and makes great drinks. Their food is incredible, I LOVE their asada tacos and the Violetta. I always have to visit when I’m in town, it’s such a great vibe. The inside is pretty and has a nice aesthetic. I wish I had a picture of the asada tacos before I absolutely destroyed them.

  • Nice restaurant with Amazing food and customer service. Went two days in a row while working in CC. Both evening the service was excellent. Abby was our service the first night recommended the nachos and they were soooo good. We had the enchiladas verdes and carne asada tacos with an espresso martini. The second night we had Alise as our waitress. Again greeted with a smile and excellent service! We tried the nachos again! They just as delicious as the first night. Then had Tinga tacos and poblano soup. Really the nachos are a meal in itself! Thanks ladies again for excellent service and to the chef thanks for the wonderful food!
