It was crowded till 1:30 and the backyard and there was very little room to dance. The overall crowd is very young in their twenties mostly. The music was not Caribbean on Friday night by the way. There is an inside DJ where there was pool tables and a little room to dance but overall it's not a big dance Vibe it's more of a suicidal hook up and drink vibe but I did meet some very cool people there that were very nice and people seem generally happy

Clearly not authentic Mexican food but I figure that's not expected in Gainesville anyhow. Food is pretty decent and staff is typical downtown underachieving snob. All in all I give them 4 stars for a Gainesville establishment, but in the real world, this is a makeshift restaurant that only excels in a local market of half hearted underachievers. Still I can't help but love the place.

Backyard is really fun and packed on fridays they also play really good music but their drinks are so expensive. On mondays they have Karaoke which is more chill. They also have pool tables which is fun
