Waiter Recommended Margarita was small with a large ice cube in the middle. Not much to drink. Carne asada was tough and not as well seasoned as it should have been. Charging for salsa and Tortilla chips is pushing the limits especially when they weren’t that good.

I took my sister and brother in law here for birthday lunch. It was delicious, from cocktails to appetizers to main course. We were too full to try deserts but will try them next time. They looked tantalizing.
