The crispy Brussels sprouts were quite disappointing; they were drenched in vinegar and olive oil, and then burnt to a crisp, which was inedible. There’s a fine line between crispy and burnt, and it seems the chef mistook one for the other. The chips and salsa were merely okay—while the salsa had a nice spicy kick, the chips were stale. Overall, I won’t be returning. With so many fantastic options for drinks and appetizers in Brooklyn, I would suggest looking elsewhere for a better experience.

I was just there for lunch sitting outside and there was a patron who was screaming at the top of his lungs in his storytelling to his lunch mates. He was screaming Motherfucking and **** so many times I cant count. I asked him to please lower his rant so that I could have my lunch in peace, and it became such a challenge that I requested my lunch be packed up to leave. What concerns me is that it was not my place to address this. It was management. They did nothing. Reprehensible.

Had a late lunch there. Loved the pork taco and the quesadillas. Food is well seasoned but not spicy hot. If you want heat, there are 6 different hot sauces to choose from. Prices are reasonable. Next time I will swing by for brunch. Staff is really good and nice. They know what they are doing.
