    The food was pretty good, we had an enjoyable time. The view is pretty decent overall. We had fun.. a little pricey. For. For people and a baby with two beers and two shots of tequila about $235. The economy is so expensive right now. It’s kinda hard to justify doing this other than the fact that it was somebody that’s very special to me birthday.

    The views were nice (on a gray day) but the food was truly terrible and it was super loud with groups and kid birthday parties, complete with popping balloon hats. Ugh.

    So, you know the old saying," you get what you pay for" and it is true here, at best average food, EXCEPT for the chicken skewer, that my husband had which was raw. Totally put us off the whole place. Service was good, and friendly, but the food...Oh dear.

    The food is a 5* for sure. They have large servings as well. The carnitas enchiladas were bomb, the steak and shrimp fajitas also bomb. The service was a 3*... the waitress was a bit rude. We had 8 total with 4 kids with us, she was not friendly. I noticed the attitude and didn't say anything, then my husband noticed and told me she wasn't friendly. Our kids were well behaved and we weren't difficult with orders or anything so not sure what was up. I would not consider this place kid friendly for a few reasons. 1. No activity sheet with crayons for kids, they gave us 1 kids menu for both of our families to share, not sure they were low or what but we asked for two and were told they only had 1. They don't have kids cups with lids and straws, this alone is almost worth not going back. Both the 4 year olds spilled their water and were playing with it. Their cups for the kids were just open cups. If you get kids cups with kids and straws then let us know and we will be back. The alcoholic drinks were okay. I sensed some carbonation in the skinny margarita which I hate, the menu did not say it had soda water. The glass was skinny and tall, I personally look forward to the classic old fashioned double walled glasses. The tajin rim was weak too. Overall the food was so good almost worth going back for but would love to see some friendlier service and kids cups.
