    Visited on a scorching evening, early, and found we were the only patrons. Nice welcome. Food pretty good, especially the biria beef tacos with the excellent dipping jus. The place livened up with a well attended salsa class, although the teacher talked too much which interrupted the music. We will probably return; the Hout Bay branch certainly more atmospheric…

    We arrived on time and had to be asked to be seated. Was practically ignore by the waiters, and again after 15min had to ask for table to be cleaned. And after waiting some more they had still to come clean the table, nevermind take a drinks order. The restaurant was not full, yet worrisome that they only had 1 waiter on the floor. We ended up leaving after 30min of nothing.
