    We actually didn't even stay to eat. There were so many flies and the whole place felt sticky. It just didn't seem clean

    Food did not come out hot - cheese was solid inside enchiladas and fajitas did not come out sizzling as menu states they would. Just okay food - but prickly pear marg is amazing! However, Service was great!

    The food is excellent and so is the service. The noise level is a little on the high side around UT ball games, but not terrible. It is our.pregame “go to” place and it never disappoints🧡
