    Went specifically for the “Sippin’ Santa” holiday tiki cocktail popup experience. Unfortunately, the cocktails all seemed off. We ordered the Sugar Plum Mai Tai, the Choquito, we wanted the most important cocktail - the Sippin’ Santa - but they were out of it, so we ordered the Jingle Bird. These cocktails were not great and felt like the ingredients listed in the drinks were missing in several instances. Tiki drinks are usually bold and flavorful, these all felt watered down; missing spices, balance, and freshness. The food saved the evening because it was actually quite good.

    Overall good - however, the server was serving too many tables and therefore we did not get the service from Sean as we deserved as paying customers. In fact, we waited for over 10 minutes to get silverware for the table, finally I got up and went to the kitchen to pick the forks and knives for the table - so there is an opportunity for improvement.

    Great location. Our Brisket topped salad and brisket tacos were excellent. The coconut shrimp starter was unadorned. Looking around kitchen seemed to have issues with timing. Service was spotty. Great location before game/event.
