Cuisine is tasty, unique, and memorable. The venue is actually pretty small, but I feel that it adds value to the experience. The staff has clearly spent time in the industry.

The service was slow and the food was unexceptional. Surprising, because usually the experience is much better. I called ahead because our guest was a vegetarian and I wanted to make sure the menu could accommodate him...the representative assured me that all of the servers were well-versed in the options, but this turned out not to be the case. After some back and forth, one of our party just decided to go with the straight menu, and even his meal was unimpressive. We like the atmosphere, but after this experience, we may not be using this establishment again to entertain our guests.

I was pleasantly surprised by this place. The presentation of the food was delightful and only outdone by the taste. Their nachos were exquisite, I highly recommend then as an appetizer. Also their refined take on conventional Native American dishes like Navajo tacos was expertly executed.

We were celebrating successfully finishing the Utah Valley Marathon and had found this restaurant on Open Table. Sounded interesting so we decided to try it. So happy we did. We were a party of 6 with our 7 yr old son amongst as well as my mother. We are from NY so we know good food - and we are microbrew lovers. Great beer choices, great food choices, and even a kids menu friendly enough for our son yet not the usual "kid" meal. The staff was attentive and even made extra sure to call in advance to let us know of a big group that would be wrapping up when we arrived. They bent over backwards to make sure we were ok with the noise level (which wasn't actually bad at all), and were very gracious. Would definitely recommend!

Food is always amazing and flavorful but be sure to build in an extra 30 min because everything is made fresh to order. Ambiance and scene are great too. If you are in a rush, you will be frustrated until you actually take your first bite and then peace is restored because the food is one-of-a-kind.

Service can be slow at times but the food is always worth the wait. Make sure that you are not in a hurry and you will be in for a treat.

My husband and I had been trying to get a reservation at this new Provo restaurant for a few weeks, and when we finally went, it was very worth the wait. I got the red chili beef navajo tacos, and they were amazing. The food was incredible, and the service was great. I definitely recommend this place if you're in Provo!

I have rarely had food that was so well-made or carefully prepared. You have to be willing to fork out a little dough to get it, but the Southwest flavors are perfect, the Mexican feel is just enough to get your taste buds tingling, and the overall feel of the restaurant is quite nice.
