    62nd Wedding anniversary We celebrated as a family for our mom and dad’s anniversary. Ask for Daniela she did a great job for our family tonight. All the food was great as usual. If you get the skillet cookie for dessert. I recommend getting two scoops of vanilla ice cream and skip the chocolate ice cream. Great dessert but they all are great.

    We got a last minute reservation for Valentine’s Day and didn’t know much about this place prior to our arrival! I have celiac and they had a great gluten free menu with lots of choices, also lots of house made pastas for the gluten eaters. The mussels app was to die for as was the swordfish! Great experience!! Definitely recommend

    I recently dined at Guacamole and overall, it was a great experience. The food was excellent, with bold flavors and fresh ingredients. I highly recommend trying the nachos—they were perfectly layered with toppings and full of flavor. The cocktails were also a standout, well-balanced and creative. Service was equally impressive. The staff was attentive, friendly, and efficient. However, the food came out a little too quickly, which made us feel somewhat rushed. Additionally, the noise level was higher than expected, making conversation a bit challenging at times. Despite these minor issues, I would still highly recommend trying. If you’re looking to try something new. The quality of the food and drinks, along with great service, make it well worth a visit.
