    Great restaurant that never fails. They updated their menu two weeks ago and while we missed the old favorites, the new menu is probably of wider appeal. I will say that the fajitas were just a bit too spicy, especially for an older person. The chips and salsa and guacamole are the best in town!!!

    The White Corn Soup and the Mission Fig and Pear were the stars of the show! The Mahi Mahi Tacos were not good to me at all. When we try new restaurants we try the appetizers and a entree to judge whether we will return. This restaurant did not pass the test unfortunately.

    Great food, ambiance and service with Kevin. It was a beautiful night outside under the heaters. Ceasar salad, flautas and calamari were all perfect. The Pineapple Tamarind cocktail was fabulous!
