    We were on the patio, which is nicely set up and comfortable, even in the early summer heat. We arrived early but were seated at our table (we were also there before 5 on a Friday, which contributed to the speed of seating). Our waiter, Caleb, was wonderful! The food was tasty and exactly as ordered. The drinks were also wonderful. The restaurant got very busy as the evening progressed, so we were glad we were there early. We’ll definitely go back!

    This was our second visit and it was - again - a very nice experience. We can't get over the quality of the place, the excellent staff and fantastic food value for the money. Great drinks at the bar and we are already planning our next visit. It's a little over an hour away for us but worth the trip!

We look forward to welcoming you back on your next visit. Safe travels and thank you again for your kind words.

    The ambience of the patio was very nice even on a hot day. Our food was outstanding and the only reason I am giving a four is because our second margarita was not nearly as good as the first. It had a lot of mixer and was very sweet. It did not live up to the first margarita that we had had. All in all our service was good, but there was a mixup on entrées and we got my wife’s meal a full 10 minutes after mine. We realize that things happen and weren’t upset. It was just a minor inconvenience. We will definitely be back because our food was very tasty and we loved the ambience of the patio .

    Everything was wonderful. The service was over-the-top. Caleb our server was excellent and so was everyone else attentive to the needs of outdoor fans and cooling for our birthday party. Everyone made it very special. I highly recommend.
