    Everything was perfect….. we were in a time crunch to get to the theatre. Everyone was so accommodating and the food was delish!

    Quiet Sunday brunch. Drinks were delicious and strong. Started with the brussel sprouts which are always delicious. The chilaquiles were a little disappointing, came out a lukewarm rather than hot and melty and were pretty bland. Could use more salsa or something to kick up the flavor. The positive was that they had a good amount of egg in them and the chips are very crunchy. Overall not as good as dinner but still one of my go-to places.

    Sat outside, not by the river. Service was great. Food just ok. Expensive and small portions. I had the burger. Low cost bun and small broken burger. Nothing special. Wife had a califlower steak that was just ok. Son was with us and went out to eat more with his roommate after. I didn’t read recent reviews or we would not have gone. Great location and ambiance so high potential. Price doesn’t match quality or portion size.

    Great server, location and food was delicious, but the French fries served with burgers was the smallest order I’ve ever seen. They need to throw more fries on the plates.

    The hot honey chicken “tacos” in a boa bun are soooo good. We always have a good experience here and the outdoor seating is great!

    Good selection with a variety of things. Tequila menu was impressive. Just not really into “exotic” things.

    We sat outside and really enjoyed it. Our server was super friendly and nice. House margaritas were really good and only $8! They were out of salmon so I got the chicken bao buns and they were really good, not great…a bit too sweet. My daughter got the steak frites and it was cooked perfectly but the chimichurri on it was too salty so she had to remove it. Overall, we loved this place.
