    Food was good, covered patio seating was nice. Service was extremely slow and inattentive (maybe too many tables), but the server was pleasant.

    Great service provided on this visit. Staff were friendly and accommodating with our dog and placed us in the covered patio. Food recommendations were appreciated and our pup was provided a water bowl on a hot day!

    Great service and the food was fantastic! Went with two of my friends - we all shared chips and guacamole and then had tacos for our main. Super yummy!

    Terrific meal! Authentic Mexican cuisine. We sampled 5 different tacos and couldn’t possibly pick a winner. Great drink selection as well.
