    Tasty food, very attentive waiting staff. Starters and entrées arrived at the same time? and before our drinks. We weren’t sure if this was the norm or because there was a table of 20 in the house. Cocktails and food both tasty

    Food was delicious. Kevin, our server, was very hospitable and friendly and made good recommendations on the menu. Be aware there is no lunch menu on weekends, dinner menu only, and no paper menus either. Would highly recommend!

    We liked our food, loved the drinks, salsa was spicy and good, but they did take a long time coming to our table to start our drinks and orders. We were the only table there at the beginning. Server did forget a couple of things we had ordered

    The service from the waiter was terrible we ask him for a drink and told us they didn’t have it we asked him if he can ask the bartender if they had it and he got mad and left never came back to attend us he told a waitress to come help us and she was also rude never came back to ask us for refills I ask for a salsa she never brought it I also ask for avocado had to ask twice because never brought it the first time The one that was the most helpful was the lady picking up the dirty plates and that wasn’t even her job

    They didnt have our opentable reservation. They only had QR code menus. They used the dinner menu during lunch. They didnt tell us about specials until halfway through ordering. My kids chicken tenders were raw in the middle.

    It was way to hot because they do not have AC in the back room. Enchiladas looked like they had canned chicken.

    Went here for cinco de Mayo and service was poor. The waitress sat us at a table where we ordered a drink and water. Another server bought our waters after about 15 minutes, the original server then comes back and asks us what we want to drink after I already told her I wanted a raspberry margarita. Queso is not worth $15. I ordered enchiladas(asked for flour tortillas) they bought me corn tortillas. They weren’t busy so I don’t quite understand. The food is probably decent but I wouldn’t know because they messed up.

    The service was awful. Margaritas were a bunch of mix, too sweet, hardly any alcohol. My enchiladas weren't even warm and the fish tacos were so full of sautéed onions there was hardly any meat in them. They nickel and dime you on the bill as well. It was a very disappointing experience.

    Shrimp tacos were very good, but beef nachos were not. Drinks were overpriced and salsa even had an extra charge. Our favorite appetizer, their queso fundido is no longer on the menu. Venue has not aged well post-COVID.

    We went for lunch but they charged dinner menu prices. There were signs advertising daily specials and Friday was listed as fajitas. The special price was about $9.99 but we were charged dinner price of $23. Also they have no menu’s (fully contactless) which in theory is ok but if you are in an age bracket that doesn’t use a phone it is challenging.

    On a Monday night we arrived early for our reservation, about 30 minutes because we wanted to catch happy hour. Only 2 other tables in the restaurant were busy. And our party was larger than the original 8. The staff was very rude and upset that we arrived early and made us wait for 10 -15 minutes before anyone came to bring us water or take our beverage order, there were more employees than customers but no one would pay attention to us. The happy hour margarita drinks are very watered down and not worth it. The website said happy hour ended at 6 yet the waiter argued with us that it ended at 4. The food was good not great but service was not good.

    While the food was pretty good, the service was not. The restaurant was nearly empty for a dinner service on a Saturday night but it still took about 20 minutes from when we were seated for someone to come to our table. It took an additional 20 minutes for us to receive a glass of water. If the service would have been better I would have had a completely different review. I would not eat here again.
