    The restaurant is seriously understaffed. 55 min wait from sitting down to food service. Will not return.

    Restaurant was not staffed for a concert next door. Took about an hour to get drinks. Little over that for food that was Luke warm. Not servers fault. She had over 15 tables she was attending to. Not kitchens fault as they were pushing food out fast but no one was running it to tables so it just sat and died at the pass. Manager should have a direct line to the concert venue to know how many seats are sold and schedule staff accordingly for those nights. This is the second time that has happened with his specific location. Thinking of not going again.

    Tasty food. A bit pricey and the waiter was slammed so service could have been better. Overall, recommended

    Went here before going to a concert at Toyota Music Factory. They have a serious parking problem! We drove around a lot and luckily someone was leaving right in front. It was really busy but the food was very good. We had the spinach artichoke dip for appetizer and it was excellent! I had the Caprese Flat Bread that was so good and my husband had the pork carnita tacos. He said they were a bit dry but good flavor. The service at first was excellent but when it got really busy they kind of forgot about us. I would definitely go back but maybe to a different location!
