The whole experience was stellar. The food was delicious and the drinks great. The ambiance was nice in the backyard but in the front indoor part of the restaurant the same ambiance music wasn't carried inwards so it was very quiet in there. The food delivery also got jumbled and some dishes were confused with others but that wasn't our waitresses fault as others stepped in to deliver.

Backyard patio was colourful, comfortable, very pleasant on a hot summer's evening. Food was excellent and service friendly. Server did not rush us out at all.

Fish tacos were poor quality and server did not ask why when I sent them back, back area was beautiful, but hard to enjoy with bugs and leaves falling into food.
