Incredible from the moment we entered! Great and attentive staff, nachos and salsa were offered and appetizers were appetizing. The music was fantastic and at a volume where you can have conversations. The drinks were made to perfection and exactly how I ordered. The food was even better. Great place to eat if you’re in the Sunset area of Brooklyn. - G O
