    Maybe some of the best nachos we've EVER eaten!! And when I say eaten, I mean demolished! Our server was friendly and efficient even though the restaurant was slammed with a pre-concert rush. We did have the guacamole added to our plate and our bill, although we had not ordered it, but it was so delicious that we could not complain! This meal has since appeared in my sweet dreams...

    Excellent food with really nice size portions. It was a little noisey ( people grabbing a meal before a Nellie concert) but it did eventually quite down. Will definitely be back

    We were there for a late dinner that was transitioning into the night club part of the evening. The menu was limited but the food was still good. Our server was helpful with food suggestions but didn’t clear plates from our table and wasn’t checking to see if we were wanting more drinks. Then after we paid our food and drink bill she still never came back to clear the table of empty plate and cups. We were planning on staying to dance and we understand she wanted the bill settled but we would have sat at our table with the left over food on plates all evening had we not asked someone at the bar to send someone to clean them up. They did but didn’t wipe the table down so it was sticky from food and drinks all evening. After they picked up the plates there was still no one coming around to pick up empty cups so one of us took them up to the bar. Then one of us ordered a beer that was very off. They did exchange it for a bottled beer cause the first one was draft. The music was way too loud, even for nightclub standards.

    Made a reservation for 9:15 for dinner. When we arrived (on time), we were told the kitchen was closed. We were told the kitchen closes at 9:30. The server went to talk to someone and then came back with menus and took our order. Food was good with the exception of an avocado that was turning black. Spent $100 on two entres and two margaritas. Pricey for what we received.
