As our second time visiting, it was an amazing experience! The first visit was a few weeks ago with friends to celebrate a birthday and every aspect of the visit was top notch from Toni's service to the high level attention to the allergy needs of my wife and much more! Tonight we brought my parents to celebrate their anniversary and they also had an amazing experience with Toni taking care of us again along with the Chef and GM assuring my wife's allergies were taken into consideration for another great visit. Quemar has become a favorite for us and I highly recommend it!

My husband and I went to Becca for Burger Night. The burger was delicious as were the fries. The bonus is, a nice glass of wine is included in the price! Our waitress, Jasmine, was very attentive.
