    We had dinner with a total of seven people. Roberto was an excellent server helped us feel very comfortable and got our drink orders quickly as well as our dinner very happy.

    All was great but feeling from others that the food quality has lost some flavor! Not as busy as in the past but nice and quiet! Service was great!

    This is a great place to go with a large group when visiting students at UC Boulder. Everything was delicious and the owner was very personable and attentive. We will be back!

    The whole experience was underwhelming. We made a reservation but they seemed unprepared for us and tried to sit our party of two at a table for five. When we hesitated, they found us a more suitable spot. Then the waitress forgot our drink and app order. The margarita was large and sweet but not otherwise remarkable. We ordered steak fajitas and the meat was overdone and dry. This was our first time here, and we won't bother coming back.

    Fun place- food good! Our table was next to kitchen door and every time the servers opened it- it slammed into the wall of our table which was actually quite nerve wracking!

    I made a reservation for 6 for Saturday on Patents weekend. They were able to accommodate an additional 3 which is a big deal. The food was good. The service was amazing! Especially during Parents weekend!
