    I came out from California to take my boyfriend to dinner. I looked at the previous and was excited to take him to this restaurant. The atmosphere was amazing, the service we had from the first guy (not sure what you would call him) was truly was amazing. I wish our tip would had gone directly to him to be honest with you. Our actual server just took our order and that was it. The food was good the portion was disappointing for the price usually at any restaurant you take leftovers home not in this case. My boyfriend and I don’t drink so we both ordered cokes which we both had 2 each they charged us $4.00 each coke which was crazy.

    Our waiter Ross was super helpful ,funny and enjoyable. All of the staff we interacted with were great. We loved them giving us suggestions without being pushy, and timing out the food, so nothing was cold. Great variety of food, we did a few small bites and the Asada . The New York strip taco was wonderful. Queso, and jalapeno corn bread were top notch too. Everything was great but these were our favorite.
