    Dessert waitress didn't say it was a Mother's Day surprise
    Kimetra B.

    Recommend for the wine and spirits.. Food mediocre not really fulfilling. Service was ok waitress new she was getting 18% off top on party of 4 only came to the table to take order and when it was time to pay! Ambiance standard... Would I return probably not.. desert featured the waitress never said what it was. It was just a Mother's Day surprise.

    Short Ribs (supposedly)

    Ordered the new short ribs and received a big chunk of fatty greasy meat. Ordered chips and queso, queso was a cold block of cheese. Tekila needs to do better. The food i received tonight shows they blatantly do not care.

    Saturday afternoon 4 guests and the place was jumping. The food was good but it's not consistent. I've had the seafood fajitas 3 times and its different everytime, good but different. Service is always good and bathrooms are always clean. The price point is a little on the higher end and food doesn't always match. Cocktails vary like bartenders but still good. The Tequila sampler was not my favorite but everyone loved the tacos and my sizzling seafood was good. I can taste the difference from when they first open til now. 3 cocktails, sampler, 3 tacos and seafood fajitas was $215 with tip

    Flautas De Tinga

    We've eaten here several times and it is an absolute fav! The food is incredible, tried several dishes and all have been outstanding. Service is top notch. Our server stayed on top of our drinks, was very nice, and made great recommendations. The drip burger is a must try, as is the cauliflower app. The flautas were amazing! It is so pretty and modern inside, down to the dessert platter presentation. Highly recommend!

    Our server's name was AK, he was absolutely the best! He had several tables and disappeared but I didn't have any worries or concerns because he always seemed to return before I even knew I needed something. He told jokes, good sense of humor. He joked around but he was also efficient and despite the kitchen being busy and the bar busy, we still got good and drinks in a timely manner with excellent customer service. The establishment is very spacious, its 2 levels and outside eating on the ground floor along with upstairs. Everything is very modern and the food is Tex -Mexican but no complaints. Very flavorful, tender. Delicious just as expected

    Great food, great service, salmon was delicious. Jumbo margarita was awesome. I love the color scheme of the restaurant also

    Lunch Steak Bowl

    Stopped in for lunch. Service was great, everyone was very pleasant and attentive. The food was FABULOUS. When fast food can cost closer to $20 than $10, my meal was under $20. The food tasted great and the portion was more than enough. If you're a drinker, the pineapple maragita is a recommend.

    Short rib melted in my mouth like butter! Potatoes were divine!

    The atmosphere was amazing, our waiter CJ was on top of his game with the customer service and food recommendations. The food and drinks were absolutely amazing! 10/10! I cannot wait to return and sit on the beautiful patio

    Fajitas

    This place is a favorite of mine and many others because they're always busy. Parking needs improvement. The lot isn't big enough for the crowds they draw. I'm sure you can park at the nearby shopping center so be mindful you may have to circle the lot a few times. I love the ambiance and service. I've never had a bad experience in that department. Our server this particular visit was extra attentive which was nice. Food is always good too. Haven't had anything I haven't liked. This place is on repeat for me. I can't even go to another Mexican restaurant right now!

    This is a new spot in the Southaven area and I am glad it's there! We went before a concert and I will say that our visit went very smoothly. We made reservations before going. This place is pretty spacious and have a lot of seating, but they are popular, that's why it's important to call ahead. Once we were seated, we were given complimentary chips and salsa! It was very good. I also ordered queso. It was ok. I think if I would've gotten a meat added it would've been better. The drinks were delicious as well. I had the Prickly Pear Margarita. It had Avion, prickly pear vodka & syrup, lime juice and was a great size for only $11! For my entree, I had the steak and chicken quesadilla. It was ok. I wish the tortilla was buttered. It was dry and hard. It kind of messed up the whole experience, but it wasn't bad. I also had a few wings. They were good and seasoned well. I do plan on going back or visiting the new location they are about to open on Union.

    We had an amazing dinner. Our server, Ricardo, was very attentive and helpful. We started with drinks (an old fashioned, sangria, and margaritas). All of them were delicious. Be careful, the jumbo margarita is SERIOUSLY jumbo. The glass was huge! The chips are complimentary and are very well seasoned. I ordered the fajita quesadilla - husband ordered tacos. Everything was hot and fresh and very tasty. We ended the evening with dessert. We had the chocolate cake and crème brûlée. Literally everything we had was delicious! I highly recommend.

    I am a NYC bagel snob. I ordered a toasted sesame bagel. It was 10:30a and the volume at the shop…read moresuggested to me that the bagels may have been out for a while. When I received the bagel it was not toasted. The bagel itself was very good and has potential. I will need to come early and re-evaluate. The seating and tables were adequate but not cleaned in a while with stuck on food residues that I could not wipe off with a napkin. I would come back. When I do, I will update.

    Holy cream cheese!!! I wanted to like this place. I LOVE…read moregourmet bagels. So I was excited when I found out a bagel place was opening. However, I'm left disappointed after my visit. First off, the place is small. Don't expect to get a table during lunch. We managed to snag one fortunately, but it was dirty. There was all crumbs all over the floors. Not a big deal. There were so many options to choose from and the fact that it was busy and we were first timers, we felt rushed. The coffee was crap. You make your own iced coffee. For the price, I would have rather gone somewhere that does it for me and tastes better. On to our bagels which each consisted of almost a whole block of cream cheese. I mean, I like cream cheese, but this was a bit much! The bagels are also a thick dough too, not my favorite. I ordered the jalapeño cheese bagel. The jalapeños should have been roasted or something. The crunch was not great on it. Also, the more I ate, I realized the cheese was not baked into the bagel. So after eating some the cheese topping slid off. My husband got the Maple Bacon with apple pie cream cheese and he agreed the excessive cream cheese ruined it. One of my sons got the hot Cheeto bagel with plain cream cheese. Half of it tasted like regular Cheetos. The other half was a little more hot Cheetos tasting, but he said it wasn't hot at all and was disappointed. My other son got the Cinnamon Toast Crunch bagel and that was the worst out of all of ours. It was plain as heck. Did not taste like cinnamon and had ZERO crunch to it. Pitiful. Lastly, I have to address the prices. They are pretty ridiculous. You pay $4 for a bagel. Okay... then you pay extra for whatever bagel it is. Why not just charge a price for that bagel and be done with it?? But it doesn't stop there because flavored cream cheese is also extra. I'm surprised they didn't charge to toast it! (Which you have to request it toasted, I thought that was the norm and you request if you didn't want it toasted?) I can't really comment on the service. Someone too our order, someone else called our name when it was ready. Not much else. They weren't rude, but not very welcoming. And I never someone anyone out cleaning tables or helping guests beyond the counter.
