    Our server was attentive and helpful. At first, we were assigned a booth by the door which was too loud. A manager moved us to a nice quiet booth where we could actually have a conversation. The food was excellent and the price was good for the value. Suggestion: add a good Mexican beer like Dos XX.

    It was a lively and packed night at The Block - which was great! The highlight of the night was Keith. Before we got there Amilia says, "I hope we get Keith again tonight!" Well, it worked out that we did. He remembers our usuals and is great about making any changes we'd like. I added beer cheese to my burger and queso dip for my fries. I didn't even know we could do that. Thanks to Keith for the suggestions and advice! So many laughs, fun conversations, good music, and great people. Look forward to doing it again next week!
