Great vibe and service was outstanding. Lots of people, so we knew it was a neighborhood favorite. Excellent cocktails. Four of our five give the food five stars. One person gives a four. We’ll be back.

It was very nice to be seated on the roof top. The view of the city was amazing. The service was great. The food was unforgettable. And the margarita tree made the evening fun. Although pricy for the drinks. The ambiance is what you are really paying for. 4 out of 5
