   We celebrated our 60th wedding anniversary. Everything from service, food and ambience was perfect. Our ribeye steak was cooked to perfection. It was a tad bit noisy, as we were close to a group of business people. We will definitely return.

   Enjoyed a very nice seafood dinner with my wife at Hondo’s Restaurant last night. Food was excellent; service was professional and efficient. Noise level was a tiny bit loud for the small room we were in.

   The food is amazing. Only took 20 minutes to get a drink order placed, another 20 to order any food and having to hound the waitress, manager and finally other servers to get a refill or anything else. From the moment I asked for the check to leaving took over 30 minutes. Great food. Bring a snickers, you're gonna be a while

   The blackened tuna sandwich was good but needed a sauce. The pineapple relish that accompanied the sandwich contained very little pineapple, and the pineapple flavor was overpowered by the other ingredients. The French fries were excellent. Justin was a fantastic server, as always. There are none better.

   Lovely! Food was great. Our waitress Ashley seemed a little hyper. Apparently she was having trouble with the CC machine and asked if we could possibly use cash. Then the 1st time she brought our checks she did not have our drinks on them. She said the machine wasn’t working right. They she seemed confused and had us confused. Funny too…she brought bread and then when we weren’t eating it right away she was going to take it way, but we said leave it. Very overly anxious. Kind of interrupting at inappropriate times during our conversations. That being said..she did a good job on bringing drinks and food and then whatever we asked for in terms of extra condiments. Just a little strange experience. Anxious or hyper, but very pleasant & nice.

    I come here a lot and tonight was honestly disappointing. Hoping it was an off night
