The food is not bad, not better then what I make at home. You can find way better mexican restaurants in Budapest than this one. The cocktail I had was interesting. (Frozen watermelon margarita) It’s a huge portion, but you can barely taste anything. I couldn’t taste the alcohol nor the fruit and it was made from syrup when other places I really enjoy use fresh fruit. The service was good, everyone was kind, but on a weekend day, hours before closing they ran out of a lot of things. They didn’t have quacamole, the fajitas barely had any meat in it, 90% fries paprika, and also couldn’t make the cocktail we wanted cause they didn’t have ingredients for it. I would not come back to be fair.

I came with my girlfriend and another friend and we had an amazing dinner experience. The food was delicious and the service was spectacular. Mariann & Attila were wonderful hosts and servers. I can’t wait to tell my friends about this place. I will definitely be back! Thank you Calavera

My wife and I visited the place out of curiosity, but we will be going back for sure! I have seen the place from the outside already during the summer and it looked lively and cozy. It is end of November now, but the place was still full of life. Reservations are highly recommended, especially on the weekends. The food was delicious and plentiful and they had a great selection of tequila and mezcal. Heni and Attila tended to all our needs and we were highly satisfied. Ideas for improvement: Better ventilation. In the 2-3 hours we spent there our clothes started to smell like food. It didn't take too much from the experience, but it is definitely something that could make everything better.

So first off, this restaurant absolutely takes card for payment. With that said, very spacious restaurant with indoor seating only. Very expansive menu for both drinks and food. What came out was fresh and presented very well and tasted great. Looking at the description of the vegetarian burrito I ordered, I expected to get a tortilla filled with beans, cheese and vegetables. It sounded good so that’s why I chose it. However I was disappointed to find that my burrito was actually just a tortilla filled with vegetables and cheese sprinkled on top. It tasted good but I stopped after one (they give you two burritos) because it wasn’t what I wanted or expected.
