   Food was so bland that even salt and pepper could not save it. We ordered 5 different dishes and every one of them lacked flavor, even the carne asada tacos. Despite that, the service was great and the ambiance was fun if a bit chaotic.

   The low table was strange but a cool concept. A little hard to eat your food though. The service was excellent!!

   Food was ok - fair at best. Caesar salad dressing was blah - lacked seasoning. The wings were overcooked and dry. Extremely noisy such that a conversation was hard to accomplish. The chairs were uncomfortable and not suitable to eat at the table.

   Nathan, thanks for taking the time to leave us a review. We appreciate your feedback about the food and we'll be sure to share it with the kitchen team to make improvements. As for the noise level, we understand it can get fairly loud, especially because we are a live music venue. If you're looking for a quieter dinning experience, we recommend coming during lunch! Thanks again for the feedback and we hope to welcome you back soon.

   It took me over 45 mins to get the beer I ordered. It was busy yes, but people at my table got their second beers while I was waiting for my FIRST! I ordered a draft Modelo. I was disappointed in the Service. Normally it is great!

   The food was amazing super cute spot. But our waitress was not the greatest. Saw other waitresses definitely making their rounds regularly. We were lucky if we saw our waitress we had to waive her down. Never got refills on water and we were there for about 4 hours .. thank goodness my mom brought a water bottle.

   Went for super Bowl, had reservations and they ended up waving the cover charge if everyone showed up and honored their reservation. Service was excellent, we were there for 5 hours and never went more than 5 minutes without our server attending to us. DJ was great and the viewing experience for any big sporting event is awesome!!! Great experience, always topnotch food, service and energy!
