   All happy hour items were prepared extremely well. The ingredients were very fresh. Service was outstanding. Staff even asked us if we wanted a container so that we could take home the left over salsa. Enjoyed the sample of their featured tequila. Based upon the sample, I was offered a sample of their spicy teqila mule. I ordered this happy hour cocktail. All happy hour portions were quite geberous.

   The ambiance was great, and I can see the potential of this being a solid restaurant. However, my personal experience fell short. I found myself having to flag down a couple of servers and other staff members just to get consistent service. While the food was good, the attentiveness from the staff could definitely use some improvement.
