    Service was fair. Waiter took our drink order - which took 5 minutes for 3 people - and still got it wrong. Salads were good, sandwiches were mediocre and not filling. Waitstaff got the side wrong. Not a big choice- fries or chips. 50/50 shot to get it right. Too many good restaurants out there to return here.

    Juan was a fantastic server. Accommodated my 100 year old dad with all his special requests. Restaurant was so busy for mothers day but the staff handled it so well. Thanks!

    Two out of the five meals ordered came out wrong and after we sent them back they never came out again. We had to track down the server to check on them.

    A group of my good friends met for dinner. We are a big group and it’s always fun when we get together. The food was delicious along with our cocktails. The service was fabulous. We started with the guacamole which was exceptional. I had the chicken tinga tacos which is one of my favorites. Many of my friends had the Triple Combo. Everyone had a great meal.

    I lured my 2 city friends to drive north and meet at Happ Inn. It was a delightful evening, Our food choices were perfect especially the whipped feta appetizer. Our young server was upbeat, informed and efficient. Cocktails amply poured and chilled. Happ Inn continues to be a favorite,
