Thank you so much for holding our early dining reservation on Cinco de Mayo! The food and drink here are fresh and delicious. One of our 3 had a longer wait for the entree; not sure what happened. The sopapilla dessert is a favorite. The margaritas are varied and flavorful. Servers should check in a bit more often. Yes it was CDM but we were early and the server was not too busy yet to provide regular attention for drink refills etc. I have dined here often and will return.
