5/10Pretty disappointed in our experience celebrating my husbands birthday here, especially given that we'd read such great reviews of it and the website looked promising. I'm in Barcelona often and wouldn't go back here again. Several issues... - I'd written in advance to check we could bring our dog and received a friendly reply to say that was fine. When we arrived the waiter seemed put out that we'd brought a dog and said he had no note of it on the system. - One of the waiters who served us was rude and abrupt. We don't speak Catalan/Spanish well - he was impatient and made no attempt to help. I understand he shouldn't have to speak English but a little patience would have been really helpful - this restaurant has an English website and Barcelona is an international city with lots of tourism - I hadn't expected it to be a problem. - This is more subjective but the food wasn't as good as I'd expected. There were some good flavours in the dishes but I found the menu a bit limited, and included only seafood or vegan dishes - admittedly this is clear if you check the menu on the website.

9.5/10I went with my husband and 5 yrs old son. Even if it is not a family orientated restaurant, the staff was very friendly and offered us a chair with double cushion for my son. We are Mexicans and we really enjoyed the food and options offered. We will be back!

8.5/10A cozy place with a great service. Food was ok but I think it was a bit overpriced. Highlights for us were the Aguachile mixto rojo and Tosta de atún.

10/10Great service. Maybe not the best food (not that refined) i had but certainly tasty with original twists to mexican classics.

9/10The restaurant is beautiful and the service is impeccable. Superkind, ready to help, present, very nice. We loved the food and if you go, you must try tostadas de atún, they are their star meal for a reason. A little bit on the negative side, not all dishes are equally amazing and it's quite pricey (around 10 euros for 2 tacos or 14 euros for 2 tostadas), so the quality/ratio could be better. We also had sopes with frijoles and cheese, tostadas with octopus, tacos with fish and pineapple (didn't really like it), with calamari and ink (not bad), and vegan ones with frijoles and nopales (loved them). Torta cajita is amazing with 3 leches and dulce de leche on top. Altogethrr, we were happy with our visit, I recommend it warmly.

10/10The food was absolutely amazing - a taste of Mexico in every bite and really helpful and friendly staff. The venue is delightful and sufficiently out of the main stream to not be rushed out in order to make space for another sitting. An experience I hope to repeat many times.

4/10Service was bad- got every part of our order wrong and really didn't care. The portion size is tiny, we were all starving after dinner even though we all had multiple things :( There's so much good Mexican in Barcelona, this is not one of them

8/10The restaurant is nicely decorated and has a good vibe overall. Service was attentive and all personnel competent and friendly. Foodwise was a mixed bag for me. We had Tostadas de atun, fresh and crunchy, really loved it. When it came to tacos though, I had the impression all version, wether it was fish, veggie or prawns were cooked in the same sauce, so they all tasted the same.

5/10The staff was welcoming but the food is not children friendly because all plates are very spicy. Therefore, people with kids or stomach problems should not choose this restaurant. The waiters were rude when I complained about the spicy food so, I don’t recommend this place.
