    Evening began with finding a long hair in the guacamole presumably from our waitress who did the whole silly tableside guacamole making with her long hair swinging everywhere - gross. Restaurant is super loud and music playing loudly made worse. Took forever to seat us - almost 30 minutes later than our reservation. All food was tasteless and ill prepared. Drinks were watery and boring. Just a pinch of salt might have helped a few dishes go from bland to at least edible. Won’t return. So disappointing and below average in a town with many great choices.

    Checking in for our reservation was perfect. Our waitress was very nice. We had our drinks and dishes very fast. Everything was delicious. Only one remark we were inside and the music was too loud. Next time we'll choose an outdoor table. Thank you.

    We had a lovely meal sitting outside on a beautiful night. The noise level was quite high as we were very close to the bar area and there was a live band in the parking lot. The guacamole made tableside was absolutely perfect! Cocktails and food were amazing!
