   Last night a friend and I met for dinner and had a most wonderful time. We were welcomed and served immediately as we started our evening with delicious guacamole made tableside and were assured that The Short Rib Tacos were a sure bet fora d cheese a delicious dinner. We added red chili enchiladas and agreed that the short rib tacos were the tastiest in town! The service was attentive and likable as we enjoyed the festive frint bar toom atmosphere.

   Everything was fabulous except the live music was too loud. Very good music but could have cut volume by 30% or so.

   The food was disappointing, we haven’t been in a couple of years but they changed the menu and the meat was dry and flavorless. Service was good but the food was not worth the price

    One of our favorite spots....especially the patio. The food is consistently good and service is great! The music on Sunday's is nice; however, last night the band was so loud we couldn't hear each other or the wait staff. No need to have it that loud for a small patio with dinner guests (not a bar). It was quite painful and may make us think again of coming if there is a live band.
