    Food was really good I got the Fish tacos I do not like street corn at all so I won’t rate that. The fish tacos were delicious. I also got a side salad. My meal average tip included was 30$ kinda pricey for the amount of food but was very good. Very nice clean place took reservations and food was tasty.

    I had a double nickel salad and a bucket of shrimp . The salad was pretty good but the shrimp was covered in some sort of seasoning. It was absolutely drowned in it. It was unnecessary and totally ruined it.
