    Loved the guac and appreciated being allowed to taste it before serving. My enchiladas were outstanding, but my friend’s fish tacos were too spicy. Margaritas we’re just alright; they seemed watered-down. Service was good, although some long pauses in-between.

    Very terrible service. We ordered appetizers and drinks and the waiter took the longest time before he came back to take the rest of our order. The margarita was nothing to brag about both had little alcohol in them.

    The blueberry cornbread muffin changed from when i was last there. It used to come in a bigger black pan, that version was definitely better to me. Also the chicken and churros didn’t have the eye appeal this time. Didn’t have the nice butter placement and the pink flowers were missing. Michelada was pretty flat. Other than that everything else is great. One of my favorite brunch spots, just need to tune those few things up.

    Menu was very limited. There was an up charge of $6 to add rice and beans to fajitas. they use this large cart to mix fresh guacamole at, $8 person, which is annoying in a small place. We had to get up so the cart can service another table. Food had some flavor, but overall not worth it. Would not come back. In addition my party of 4 arrived about an hour earlier but was told we needed to wait till that time. I looked around noticed empty tables, so I look on the app for an early time. I saw plenty of times for current timeframe and modified my reservation. We were seated immediately after, but why did I even have to do this.

    Service was amazing, drinks could use some improvement and the guac had way too much lime juice in it. All the staff was nice and fast.
