    We were greeted immediately with a welcoming smile and seated at a high top as we had requested in our reservation. Our server was new but confident as he asked for our drink & appetizer order. The drinks were fantastic and the appetizers of ceviche & queso flameado were really good. We ordered another round of drinks and dinner of chicken mole enchiladas. The mole is perfectly sweet with a hint of heat and the food was fresh and served hot. We really enjoyed our dining experience and will definitely visit again.

    Food was great. This was our second visit. Plates are large (shareable for smaller appetites). Service has been spotty and slow on both visits. Had to flag down people for drink refills and getting bill. Waited on drinks first because they “were out of cups and were washing glasses”. Restaurant was only 1/3 full so obviously not enough glassware for service.

    Quiet Sunday lunch on the patio overlooking the river. Ceviche and fajita beef tacos were very good . Excellent value with lunch menu available on weekends and free validated 2-hour parking at adjoining garage.

    Great food, great atmosphere, great service and very reasonable prices for the area. The drinks from the bar were great too. Highly recommended if you are looking for Tex Mex cuisine and a little bit of an upscale experience.
