Perfect day for margaritas so we sat at the patio and had a great time. Our server was great too and made good recommendations. We loved the passion fruit margaritas and shared a lot of small dishes. Everything was very good!!

We went as a family and the bar atmosphere was extremely lively. As it was a nice evening we asked if we could sit outside where it was quieter and the amazing staff accommodated us. Thank you!

The bartender was the only person in the bar the entire time we ate, but the burgers were great and the drinks were good. Thank you for having some mocktail options! Easy and chill place to get dinner before a show at the 9:30 club.
