    Shrieking toddlers. Waiter complaining about tips. Drinks took 25 minutes (2 alcoholic). Soup expensive for size & mostly tortilla strips. Appetizer platter came with entrees & no cheese on nachos!!?? Very slow service. We chose to give you another chance & very disappointed again.

    The food was okay. But for a Friday night it was so slow and it took us maybe 10 minutes for someone’s to come greet us at the host stand . Then we got seated with chips and salsa. Waited another 25-30 minutes for a sever to ask us is someone had been to our table yet while 5+ server where just talking and doing laps around the restaurant. Ordered an appetizer and an anger to share and it was ok . Don’t get the flight the price is nice but it’s not worth it just get a vodka soda or whatever you’re better off. Definitely not worth 120. I’m a local and I definitely won’t be back. I’m better of at sharkeez for fajitas

    It’s a good place to have drinks and the food is delicious but it’s super hot in there which makes your experience not enjoyable

    We sat to the right as you enter the dining room. We were sweating it was so hot. I mentioned to the waiter and he said it is always like this. We touched it out but ate quickly. We got dessert which was on the left side. It was very cool and comfortable. In retrospect we should have walked out. It was very uncomfortable. The food was very good and our waiter was excellent.

    We went to this location for the beach ambienace. N food was below average. Nachos had very very little cheese on top of chips. Carnitas were so oily and greasy. Will not go back
