Viaje with probably the best customer service before and after my dinner here. Called in on a last minute reservation for our 3 year anniversary and we have been eyeing Viaje for the longest time. Their interior is absolutely stunning when walking on 2nd Street but you know the price tag was making me procrastinate that reservation. When I called they asked for our names and PUT OUR NAMES ON THE MENU saying Happy Anniversary. You gotta be kidding me! Talk about extra brownie points for myself right there, I lied to my girlfriend saying I told them to but I didn't lol. Then I'm driving the next day get a random call and THEY ASK ME HOW THE DINNER WAS! Your kidding again, it was a bit awkward and the shortest call of all time but it a nice gesture. We sat at a booth and I ordered their 10 oz Arrachera steak which comes with a huge anaheim pepper and tortillas. It was pretty good and left the restaurant full with their chips too. I wish the sides on this plate was a bit better. Their avocado crema was really good but wish there was a better carb on this place like rice. Girlfriend got the Pulpo which was octopus and loved it. Service for dining in was a bit lackluster, kept on having to call over the waiter and felt like I was losing him in the restaurant. Other than that, it was a good anniversary, thanks Viaje!
Phenomenal birthday experience at Viaje! We stopped in around 3 PM for happy hour to celebrate a birthday, and everything was amazing. The aesthetics are beautiful, the service was excellent, and the food was spectacular. We ordered several items from the happy hour menu plus one from the main menu. The tacos and drinks were standouts, and everything came out flavorful and beautifully presented. The best touch? The birthday girl's name was printed right on the menu. Such a thoughtful detail! Great food, great atmosphere, great service. Viaje definitely knows how to create an experience. We'll be back!
Great place to celebrate a special occasion! I went for a birthday dinner and they took great care of me. They got in touch before the dinner to ask the name of the person celebrating and then printed a personalized menu with a happy birthday message on it. Such a small but meaningful touch. I was dining during LB Food Scene Week and had the three course prix fixe menu. Everything was outstanding. The appetizer was a little hard to cut into bite sized pieces but was the perfect blend of fresh flavors to start off the meal. The chicken mole was richly flavorful and the meat was juicy and perfectly cooked. For dessert, they not only brought it the included dessert of churro bites, but also a special slice of tres leches cake for my birthday. That cake was delightful. Staff were incredibly nice and made the whole experience even better. It was pretty busy when I arrived, but had quieted down by around 8 pm. Between the food and the service I will definitely be back!
This place is nothing but class. If you're looking for a top-notch real, classy, Mexican, authentic experience, then look no further because you have found it. The decor, the service, and especially the food is absolutely amazing. I don't think I have ever tasted better, Mole in my life. this chef deserves a Michelin star.
Went here for my birthday lunch and fell in love with the place the minute I walked in! Thanks to my good friend Mike for introducing me to this amazing restaurant! They are so thoughtful that my name was on the menu! I kept a copy of course! The food was delicious. We went there for social hour and sat out in the patio. We ordered from the happy hour menu and also had some delicious drinks! The Paloma Blanca was good and The Sunday Service was by far my favorite. Both tequila cocktails. The service was incredible! They also gave me a complimentary dessert and it was a tres leches cake! My favorite! The presentation of everything was so beautiful as well, tasted as good as it looked! We had pulpo, ceviche, chips and guacamole, shrimp tacos, and arrachera tacos. Our waiter was named Zachary and he gave us excellent customer service. I can't wait to go back!
From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm, inviting, and reminiscent of Tulum. The space felt thoughtfully designed and created a great setting for the evening. The service was friendly and attentive, although it was a little slower than expected. We started with cocktails. I ordered the Pocho, made with Amaras Verde Mezcal, Bourbon, pina, guanábana, lime. The drink was enjoyable and unique, with tropical flavors that worked well together, although it was not quite as balanced as I expected. My fiancée ordered the Paloma Blanca, and it was excellent, awell-crafted cocktail. One of the highlights of the meal was the Tacos Dorados. With crema, and avocado emulsion was absolutely delicious. The flavors immediately reminded me of the potato tacos my mom used to make when I was growing up. The mushrooms added a rich depth of flavor. We also ordered the Arrachera, a 10-ounce Black Angus skirt steak served Anaheim pepper hand-pressed heirloom blue corn tortillas. The steak was flavorful and well seasoned, although it was slightly more underdone. Overall, the food was very good, and the atmosphere made the experience even more enjoyable. While the pricing felt a little high for some of the portions, the quality of the ingredients, thoughtful preparation, and memorable flavors made it a restaurant we would gladly return to. The Tacos Dorados alone are worth coming back for and also to try all other dishes like the pulpo.
Excellent service. I kept bothering the manager as he was manning the front desk near my table whenever I needed something and couldn't find my Waiter. My Waiter was knowledgeable of the menu. I'm impressed. Pacing is slower here like any other fine restaurants. We sat straddling the patio and indoor dining area and lighting was dim inside. It's very romantic and chic if you want to impress your date. Our red snapper ceviche was fresh! You're supposed to stir everything before digging in. I was not aware of this until our Waiter instructed us to do so so, thank you for letting us know! I was not a fan of the Camarones appetizer. I don't know if maybe I don't have an acquired taste for the adobo seasoning... It stunk of fish sauce as soon as our Waiter set it down and tasted mediocre to me... My fish was AMAZING! My leftovers tasted even better the next day when I wasn't so full off the appetizer! Victoria beer came out delicious until I squeezed a lime wedge (for whatever reason it turned the beer bitter instead of crisp ). I was not a fan of the Horchata either. They used artificial cinnamon syrup instead of real cinnamon and I hate the flavor of artificial cinnamon! Thank you for the complimentary tres leches cake even though it was not my birthday. I had informed our Waiter that it was my birthday month and if that counted when he had asked if we were celebrating any occasion. I appreciate your team going above! Thank you all for a nice evening. I definitely will return to try other items.
My husband and I are regulars here. They have a comfortable patio and chill vibes at the bar and main dining. It can be a romantic date spot or casual drinks and snacks. I'm always surprised when they're empty; the food is so good! Fresh, high quality and delicious. And the cocktails are some of the best in Long Beach. On top of that, they have a unique selection of tequilas and mezcals. Super underrated spot. Service is always pretty good to great! We usually get some excellent servers. Friendly, knowledgeable about the menu and happy to make recommendations. Definitely must try the ribeye taco, sopes and octopus if you want something smaller. The ribeye steak, whole fish or leg of lamb are also outstanding. Some items come with their homemade, blue corn tortillas. So yummy. If you haven't tried it, I highly recommend! Parking can be a challenge, as is normal in the area. Don't let that discourage you!
What an amazing place to enjoy a beautifully prepared meal. From arrival to departure, it was such an enjoyable experience. The staff works together to make sure you are enjoying your visit. Out server was hands down the best. She helped us pair our drink with our order, made excellent recommendation and was genuinely pleasant. The guacamole was soooo good no extra seasoning was needed. The steak dish came with homemade blue tortillas, the chicken mole was also phenomenal and the rice! Perfect. The is elegance done right. Well worth the price. The quality and service unmatched.
We tried out this place for the first time. Found a parking pretty easy after 6pm it's free . We were a walk in no reservations needed on Thursday bar top was open and it's my favorite place to be. It's where all the action of the restaurant is in my opinion. Very well decorated nice and warm atmosphere cool ambiance and great and friendly staff. The chips and salsa is where it started and is very good chips taste homemade and salsa is very tasty. We tried the different tacos they have, they were all good but I think the Ribeye taco is hands down my favorite. With the rice n Beans, black beans like no other very flavorful and the rice is not your Mexican rice your used to. It's white rice with butter and it hits the spot right on. Drinks are great as well . I will be back Cheers
We celebrated my girlfriend's birthday at Viaje, and I couldn't have been happier with how the evening turned out. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed and seated in a comfortable booth with a great vibe. Our server, Veronica, provided exceptional service and made sure everything felt effortless and special. The food was outstanding we had the Pollito con Mole Oaxaqueño and Salmon al Pastor, and both were beautifully presented and full of flavor. To top off a great meal, the team surprised us with a thoughtful birthday dessert. The cake was absolutely delicious and the perfect ending to her night. It's those extra touches and genuine hospitality that really make a place stand out. Thank you to Veronica and the entire Viaje team for making our evening so memorable. We'll definitely be back!
The bartenders are so good at what they do they made the food taste better with their recommendation. Great service, Shout out to Randy and Bear

After having this place bookmarked for a while, my boyfriend and I finally decided to visit on Valentine's Day. I will admit that Modern Mexican is not my favorite cuisine as most of my experiences are underwhelming. However, this place delivered both service and flavor. We started with the ceviche, which was so refreshing and flavorful I would come back for that alone. For entrees, I chose the salmon al pastor and my boyfriend chose the pescado con almejas which is a Chilean sea bass with clams. The flavors of the salmon blended so well and I was so glad it had pineapple to complement the al pastor flavor. I only had a bite of my boyfriend's plate, but he raved about the sea bass and the sauce it was plated with. Our drinks and dessert were just as tasty and our server, David, did a wonderful job of explaining the menu items to us. He made sure to check in with us frequently, even on such a busy night like Valentine's Day. This restaurant is on a main street so parking is a little tricky but I look forward to coming back on another special occasion. read more

Excellent! Our first time here was spontaneous. After eating dinner down the street at a neighboring restaurant, we decided to grab a drink. After a quick search on Yelp, Viaje popped up in our search results. The vibe here at Viaje is much fancier than the place that we were at previously but we were mostly excited to check out the newish addition to Belmont Shore. We sat at the bar and ordered some of their signature cocktails. I had the Mezcalito made with mezcal, lime, peach-habanero syrup, epazote. Hubby had the Oaxacan Old Fashioned. Our drinks were very good and had the perfect amount of strength! https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/viaje-long-beach?select=Bbcq6THETupP0YriFxmClg&userid=53dkR4-xyhjsCVHfrwiGaQ We knew we wanted to come back to Viaje to check out their food menu. I made reservations for Hubby's birthday and the Viaje team made an extra effort to make our experience special. They customized our menus with a birthday message for Hubby! https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/viaje-long-beach?select=eVorZ5yk81JV2DEiylIFBQ&userid=53dkR4-xyhjsCVHfrwiGaQ We started off with more delicious cocktails. I had the La Condesa made with prickly-pear-orange blossom gin, apple, celery, sage syrup, aquafaba, and floral bitters. Hubby had the Maravilloso made with mezcal, cacao infused, primo sweet vermouth. Again, they knocked these drinks out of the park. https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/viaje-long-beach?select=E-gjFhvw3QGloRw1VUS4Jw&userid=53dkR4-xyhjsCVHfrwiGaQ I ordered the Tacos Dorados made with potato & shiitake mushroom. Since I ordered it without the queso and crema, they garnished it with an avocado sauce instead. The shell was perfectly crispy. The potato was soft and fluffy, The mushrooms added an extra layer of flavor and texture. This also comes with a side of salsa. I would easily eat this again. https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/viaje-long-beach?select=OKnb7wBWSVuMArPwJjUjtw&userid=53dkR4-xyhjsCVHfrwiGaQ The Vegetales A La Parrilla was also delicious. First of all, loved the presentation. Second, the fact that they made grilled veggies so flavorful tells me that this dish is no afterthought. The seasonal veggies included zucchini, broccolini, portabello mushrooms, carrots, and onions. It was a bit more oily than I would have preferred so if I order this again, I may request to go light on the oil. https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/viaje-long-beach?select=3dLV0jLk9yF0-hhFPZl0bw&userid=53dkR4-xyhjsCVHfrwiGaQ Overall, I loved this place! The only other upscale high-end Mexican restaurant that I've been to is Javier's in Newport Beach so I'm glad I can have that upscale high-end Mexican experience in Long Beach. In fact, Viaje is way less pretentious than Javier's. I'm more comfortable with the welcoming vibe here at Viaje. I would easily come back. Perfect spot for a fancy date night :) read more
We had a great first experience at Viaje. The hostess accommodated us early on our reservation, which was greatly appreciated. We started with a variety of cocktails, all of which were delicious. Appetizers were the Sopes de Costillas, which had amazing flavor and presentation. Normally served as 3, they graciously added a 4th to match our party size. Next I had the Enchiladas Oaxaqueñas, some of the best enchiladas I've ever had. The mole was rich and creamy without being overly chocolatey. Other party members had the Cochinita Pibil, which they loved. Lastly we finished with Churros, perfect for splitting with a small group and not overwhelming in size. A perfect cap on the evening. Overall, Viaje is a wonderful addition to the LB food scene and everything is top notch. The atmosphere, the flavors, the service, we can't wait to try it again. read more

November 2023 ~ First up.. the Ambiance was gorgeous, not over the top but warm & classy. I haven't been to 2nd St for a long time and this restaurant is needed to bring BS back to what it once was back in the day. The staff was exceptional, very welcoming & friendly. We loved every dish! So full of flavor. I really like this style of entrees, not to much, just the right amount of food. In addition to the plates in the photos, we ordered the short rib flautas, the enchiladas & grilled vegetables all awesome:) read more

Ambiance was very hip and relaxing, perfect for a date night. Ceviche was super fresh and not a mushy texture. It came with thin flaky tostada shells which balanced the avocado and fish textures very well. The red sauce was so yummy! Wanted to lick the plate. Faultas de Barbaco were delicious and cooked to perfection, had a very flaky tortilla and had moist short rib meat inside. I tried the La Morita, La Condesa and my #1 fav was the La Catrina which had Tequila Blanco, blueberries, ginger, lime juice, and agave which was the perfect amount of sweetness. The alcohol was strong but not overbearing. Legit the perfect cocktail for me. Kinda wish I just had 3 of these instead of trying the other cocktails but I love to try new tings And finally calling all Branzino lovers! The Pescado Zarandeado was my absolute fav. It came with hot and thick house made tortillas. I love how the dish came with guac and pickled onions which were also a fav touch. Just watch out for the fish bones to not swallow them but that's what made eating this dish so much fun. Only thing I can say negative is the workers were trying to go home and felt a lil rushed but other than that I had an amazing time! read more

Everything was magnificent. The cocktails were fresh, well balanced and had great flavor. I ordered the pepino and La morita margaritas. Apps were delish especially the seafood empeñadas- wow. So warm and comforting with the perfect exterior. Surprisingly had a lot of filling. The ceviche was also good. I ordered the salmon Al pastor but didn't get to snag a picture. It was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. I was so full but wanted to keep eating. The portions were really great. It is on the pricier side but it's worth it for a splurge and the service is so great that it makes it even more worth it. The ambiance was clean, dim lit at night- but not to the point where you can't see in front of you/the menu. It was almost a full house on a Sunday night, and yet it still had a calmness about it. Highly recommend ! read more

I love coming to Viaje!! The food is always amazing and comes out fast. My favorite appetizers are the taquitos, the sopes, and sopita!

Came here over the weekend to celebrate a friends birthday and I couldn't have been more happy with my decision to select this restaurant. Menu was limited than other restaurants HOWEVER, menu changes often so it was understandable. Everything from the service, the food presentation, the attention from the managers and servers, the quality of the ingredients, and taste of the food was absolutely amazing! Met my expectations way beyond. Only feedback I have is to give guests celebrating their birthdays the opportunity to take their picture with their cake prior to cutting it in the kitchen. Rating breakdown: Food Taste/Quality 5/5 Ambiance 4/5 Bar Menu 5/5 Food Presentation 5/5 Service 5/5 Cleanliness 5/5 read more
Nice spot! Great food, amazing drinks, and great managers!! I got the empanadas with lobster. The ribeye is to die for.. Better then most steakhouses!! The handcrafted cocktails rock your world and service is A + Patio is amazing , and the staff is great.. A must try!!! read more

Absolutely amazing dinner! My wife and I went to Viaje for our 20th anniversary dinner and had such a wonderful meal. First off, the service was excellent, friendly and attentive. Our starters, a shrimp tetela (like an empanada) and the ceviche were excellent. The mahi ceviche was so fresh and delicious, and the tetela was very rich with the cheese and mushrooms. My entree was both unique and tasty. It was a duck confit enchilada with a rich mole sauce. At first, it looked small but it was so rich that I only ate two and had to pack the last one for leftovers. You don't see duck confit that often in LA, and you don't ever see a duck confit mole enchilada. I also had a bite of my wife's salmon al pastor that was fresh and tangy, and equally yummy if you want something lighter. Dessert was a delicious churros y chocolate, and I almost forgot to mention our delicious cocktails. Mine was a smokey hibiscus drink and my wife had their signature margarita. Both were unique variations of traditional drinks. Altogether, this is one of our best meals here in Long Beach. If you are looking for a nice restaurant with excellent food, you should definitely try Viaje. read more

Forgot to take a photo of the flautas (which were good) and chips & salsa, a lil expensive - pretty yummy - the sopes needed salt (the meat was kind of bland), ceviche (catch of the day - snapper) , Octopus pretty good, felt the chorizo was an overpowering flavor pairing, so I ate them separately, great ambiance - sat at the bar with Garrett... who was amazing... great customer service, very witty and personable I enjoyed myself, don't feel cheated at all... don't have an intense sense of urgency to return but I do want to try the branzino Oh yeah... the drinks... yea... its cool spot read more

Thank you Brylie,…
I finally made my return to Viaje and the experience was equally amazing as the last. I desperately wanted to get out of my comfort zone and try something else. But I couldn't control my urge for another amazing fish taco. The branzino is just it! It is a perfect fish that has not failed me. The flavor on this thing is out of this world. Viaje is the perfect place for a date night or a girls night. Hell a solo date night. Everything about this restaurant invites me back every time. All the way down to the hotel scents in the bathroom. Everything is thoughtfully curated and gives you the impression that you are a part of something special. I love it here. Next time, I'm going to try a different dish because everything looks amazing! read more

Don't be like me, make sure to mentally prepare to find street parking. I came here to celebrate a friend's birthday. The restaurant is beautiful with an open concept. Out waiter made the whole dining experience enjoyable. The ceviche, braised ribs sope, and guacamole was 10/10 for me. The shrimp was overcooked, but the sauce was delicious. The enchiladas were good but the rice was delicious. I think all the food is seasoned so well. The flavors are there. I will be coming back read more

Such a great addition to 2nd street. I came here with my parents and boyfriend on Saturday night. We had a reservation @ 8pm, but wanted to eat a little earlier so we added our name to the waitlist via Resy and walked over. They were able to seat us on the patio immediately which was great! We started with some drinks. I had the tepachito which was the perfect balance of Smokey with just a touch of sweet, not overly sweet & my mum had the Paloma which was delicious as well. Both my dad and boyfriend ordered beers which weren't on the menu, but they had a few modelos available. We started with the barbacoa flautas & the tacos dorado, both were delicious, but we especially loved the molé that the flautas were served with. Our mains were the same story, everything was plated beautifully and all of our meals were delicious. The lamb barbacoa fell right off the bone & were served with freshly made corn tortillas. The salmon was delicious and so were the enchiladas. The interior is very well done and is clean, but has a nice swanky vibe to it. While our drinks took a minute to come out, everything else came out pretty timely and the service was great! Really recommend this spot as I think it's a great addition to 2nd street. read more

A friend and I went to Viaje for some drinks and dinner. Everything was phenomenal. The ambiance of the restaurant is a modern clean aesthetic. Even down to the bathrooms! First and foremost the bartender Bailey was so helpful and gave such great service. The drink recommendations by Bailey were exactly what we wanted. Every drink he recommended and made for us was perfect! I had the El Gerente and Tepachito and my friend had the la Condesa and Tepachito. Considering he chose our drinks just based off what we explained we normally like is what was so impressive! We both ordered a Caesar to share, and for dinner two filets and shared the veggies. For dessert, the tres leches. We will definitely be coming back! read more

Viaje is the gem that we needed in Belmont shore. It's everything you expect plus more. As a skeptic of "new age" or modern Mexican food, I usually expect the taste of the food to be compromised for looks, however, the food did NOT disappoint. This was the most thoughtful most flavorful modern Mexican food. Nothing was compromised. I highly recommend sharing plates so you can get the most of your experience. The ceviche, taquitos and other items are small but shareable. One of my favorite things about this restaurant is they serve wine from Casa Madero, if you're unaware, is one of the oldest wineries in Latin America. I've only ever seen or drank it in Mexico. 11/10 on food, experience, and attention to detail. (Even the restrooms smell great??? How do they even do that??) I've already returned 3x - which means you need to check it out at least once. read more

Hola Olivia,…
I'm honestly blown away by how delicious this entire meal was. I'm actually very picky with Mexican food because it makes my tummy ache but no, this place has QUALITY recipes. This is a oaxacan restaurant which I have found to be my favorite type of Mexican food. Everything tastes so flavorful and light. It feels like I'm eating clean and healthy. We came on a Sunday around 8pm to avoid any possible rush on 2nd street. There's free parking in the back in a lot. This is the perfect little nice treat yourself out date spot. We ordered the tacos dorados which were potato and mushroom crispy tacos but honestly taste so so good. The potato purée inside is filling but also light. And for our second entree we got the pulpo which is their octopus and that was so flavorful. Both appetizers came with salsas and they matched very well with the dishes. For our entrees we ordered the skirt steak and branzino. I really didn't know what to expect because I've been burned before. To my surprise though, the dishes come with freshly home made corn tortillas. They're so warm and fresh. We got a side of guacamole, pickled onions, and some more salsa which I believe is for the branzino because the skirt steak came with beans and guacamole. I made my own taco with guacamole, onions, and branzino and upon first bite I really had to take a moment to really appreciate how delicious everything tasted. I really enjoyed everything here. The food is made with quality flavors that don't make you feel like you would regret eating too much. I will absolutely be back and am looking forward to it! Also our server was so friendly and positive. Forgot to mention I also got a hibiscus lemonade which was so sweet and refreshing. I wanted another but I stopped myself from overdoing it. I will have to come back next time and try their desserts. The lemon tart with the homemade cracker sounds so wonderful. Can't wait to come back! read more

Was looking for a great spot for food and drinks and decided on Viaje. Made reservations for 7:30p but could have walked in at this time although it did get very busy soon after. Started out with the costilla sopes which... we're.... Bomb! Dinner was the arrachera plate and the costilla in green sauce special. Both plates were delicious and loved the flavors of Mexico that were very present in the plates and drinks. It definitely gives off vibes of nicer restaurants in Mexico. Drinks were very good too and I love the selection of tequila and mezcal they have. Especially when it's good quality ( additive free) tequila. If you're not sure, feel free to ask Ruben about a good choice and he will def give you some knowledge and history on a drink that you will surely enjoy. Great job with what you're doing there at Viaje. If I had one small gripe, prices are a little high but I get it, 2nd street in Long Beach rent probably isn't cheap. read more

I have passed by this restaurant easily over a hundred times as I live in the neighborhood but kept making excuses not to go in, and what a mistake that was. I can't believe I denied myself (and my husband) such an incredible dining experience. We made a reservation online which was easy. We were celebrating my birthday and my husband indicated that on the reservation - he got a text shortly thereafter asking for the name of the birthday person - we found out why upon getting seated and looking at the menu - they personalized it to say "happy birthday, Shannon" such a fun customization that truly made me feel special! Things we got: viaje margarita - excellent, strong (or I just may be a light weight!) Tacos Dorados - vegetarian, delicious, salsa is really good and I really enjoyed the mushrooms in this dish Arrachera - the real star of the evening. Got our steak medium well, and it was perfect. The beans and quac were both smooth and flavorful. The onions were an unexpected delight. I'm not a corn tortilla lover but these were soft and tender and not dry, was plenty surprised! birthday dessert: warm, sweet churros with fresh fruit, they were very good! I can't wait to go back! The menu is a little pricey, BUT I'm so glad we finally went in because everything we got was worth every penny. Our server Julio was amazing as well! read more

Cocktails: beautiful and fresh but VERY weak. Not worth $16 for freshly squeezed lemon and lime juice with a fancy rim. Food: items we ordered are in the photos attached. Salmon Al Pastor was our favorite. Pulpo being our second favorite. Nothing special about Tetela de camaron. Kale salad was light and refreshingly. Ambiance: clean, dimly lit, with semi-loud traditional music playing Overall: This restaurant left my husband and I feeling truly indifferent. This is a type of place we wouldn't recommend to friends, but wouldn't say no if a friend or colleague wanted to meet up here to grab a bite. Beautiful presentations but lacked the bold and unique flavors typically experienced in Oaxaca cuisine. read more

Hi Maddie,…
WHOA WHOA WHOA!!! Viaje is ABSOLUTELY incredible!!!! This is the type of restaurant that literally takes you to another region of the world without having to go through TSA! It checks all the boxes- incredible service and hospitality the minute you greet the host/ hostess. The ambiance is so sexy, classy, and intentionally designed to immerse you into an experience. The music is complements the decor and upbeat seductive culinary experience. Now for the cuisine: Started with margaritas - Como se dice perfection?!? They were so well done- you can tell from the first sip that they use fresh ingredients that are made in house. Apps: - ceviche was something only a god sent human could have crafted. If it wasn't such a classy environment I might have licked the bowl! - tetela de camaron was the wagyu of shrimp that was buttery, fatty, savory deliciousness wrapped in a perfect blanket of masa. Dinner: - Branzino might have been the best grilled fish that was fluffy and savory. - salad Ensalada de Col Rizada- this was a fantastic pairing with the citrus bite and fresh ingredients. The bonus to all go this was the most amazing homemade tortillas so good I had to order more. This is a MUST try place! read more

Can we bring our own bottle of wine?
I've never asked. But speak to the managers, either Eduardo or Adrian. They're super approachable and kind and helpful.
Would this place be ideal to go for a single,self date night out? Seriously looks wonderful to sit at the bar and enjoy a good drink and food !
Oh most definitely yes... I'm all about self love and this is a perfect self date I would take myself! Belly up at the bar and enjoy your viaje?
Is it kid friendly?
No kid menu there.. so may depend on the kid and if they would like the food on the menu.
Do I need a reservation for Friday night?
I'd say yes! Unless you get there early. This place is always packed
