I adore this place. We don't have a lot of restaurant options in my neighborhood, and I wish we'd get more places like this! Yes, it's very noisy and crowded, and yes, you will have to wait for a table on a weekend night because they don't take reservations. But the drinks are fantastic, so you just have to be prepared for that and enjoy the wait in the bar area. I've never had to wait more than a half hour or so for a table. Some of my favorites from the menu: the shrimp with chorizo and lime, the North African dip plate, the black bean burger (really good homemade veggie burgers are rare), the pork shoulder, and pretty much all of the fish specials and the soups. The service is always great and everybody is really friendly there. Definitely worth checking out!
Pros: Great food and service
Cons: A little noisy
