    Reservation for 7:15. Seated at 7:25. Was told we had until 8:45. Got our meal at 8:44. Waitress never checked on us. Price high for what you get. Half our food was cold. Won’t be going back.

    The first point is all of the beef brisket was not hot enough. Seems to be the residual from the last night. The first round’s beef brisket was not weighed enough for half of the pound. Why do I know that? After the first round, we ordered a second round of beef brisket, which was the same amount of meat we ordered for the first round, and we found a huge difference in weight( about 2 times) between these two rounds of meat. Disappointted. Although in the end, the waitress corrected the amount, I am still disappointed things like that happened.

    We absolutely loved our experience here. The staff were so accommodating and kind, even though we were a bit disorganized. The food was delicious, we highly recommend sampling the smoked chorizo and bao. The drinks were high quality and the prices made sense for the quality and portion of the food. Check out the half price apps from 4-6!
