    We were a service for three people and had a nice table in the courtyard dining area. We had been there previously but had a table inside. Tables were well spaced and comfortable. Ordered Nachos as an entree between us. This was a small mistake as the serve was large and delicious. We overindulged a little. For mains we had the Trio of Tacos, Blanco Curry Chicken and the Lamb Cutlets. A wide variety was available on the menu for all tastes. The serves were again sizable. We struggle a little to finish then after the Nachos. Our service person was helpful and all food and drinks were delivered in a timely manner. The mains arriving just as we finished our Nachos. Overall the meal cost just under $150 for the food and drinks. My sister complimented the frozen margarita she had. Pleasant company, good meal.
