    Sorry but massively understaffed slow slow service and dishes in complete and with not enough tortillas and other condiments. Will not be going back.

    Food was good, covered patio seating was nice. Service was extremely slow and inattentive (maybe too many tables), but the server was pleasant.

    Great service provided on this visit. Staff were friendly and accommodating with our dog and placed us in the covered patio. Food recommendations were appreciated and our pup was provided a water bowl on a hot day!
