    My experience at Duane's was great, with great service and food to boot! While the noise level was something that wasn't very easy to ignore, at least there was great food and service that cancled out the noise. Overall, the food, service, and atmosphere were all amazing, and such a great place to celebrate my birthday. I highly recommend it to anyone who's got a special celebration going on.

    As holiday guests at the Mission Inn we enjoy trying restaurants within walking distance of the hotel. This one did not disappoint. The food for our party of four was well prepared and appeared in a timely manner.

    Great experience 10/10 for the patio holiday light view, 10/10 service from my server Paul. We were so extremely lucky to see Santa as he walked around to greet us and taking photos with everyone. It truly was a memorable holiday meal experience.

    Food and service was very good. It was a bit overpriced for Mexican food. Maybe it was the Cadillac margaritas that cost too much. lol.

    Delicious Molcajete but a little on the pricer side then what I’ve had before. Overall definitely had a lot of flavor! Ambiance is trendy with also a live performances singer who sounded really good and when he wasn’t singing the music was a vibe and not so loud that you were able to still carry on a conversation in your table. Drinks were good and the service was excellent! Will definitely be going back to try the rest of the menu!
