    It was nothing special at fairly high prices. Better off going to the local taco shop for 1/4 the price

    We’ve had good happy hour experiences here but dinner was so-so. The waiters were working hard but apparently were understaffed and several items we asked for or ordered didn’t arrive. Taco fillings were over cooked but the guacamole was good.

    Overbooked the patio and made us sit inside in the corner room by an extremely loud and obnoxious table. Offered 2 appies to be comped for a table of 8 🤔 Waited 15 min for our drinks , so you didn’t even want to order another one.

    This was a very bad experience! Took forever for someone to come greet us. When they finally came the waitress got our drink order wrong. Drinks had to be redone. She then managed to get one of the food orders wrong. Food was average. The only thing that was enjoyable was the weather and sitting in the patio.
