First time, fish taco was very good, called Tequila came out wrong , service was very good. The Asada was dry and disappointing, club music was loud and was in contrast to the location and mexican theme.

Fun, trendy restaurant with excellent food and drink. Our server seemed new and perhaps dealing with lots of tables, so we cut him slack, especially since he was very gracious and friendly. We will definitely return soon!

Was definitely a bit chilly on the deck. We had to leave our coats on. But overall, we enjoyed the food and our vegetarian friends also really enjoyed the menu.

We arrived at 5 and were seated on the patio. It was a cold evening so we asked that the overhead heaters be turned on. We were told the one above us wasn’t working so we were moved to a different table. That one didn’t work either. I asked for a blanket, which was offered to me but the waitress forgot. (Only a few other tables were seated) Finally got someone’s attention who brought a blanket. The $3 kind from Walmart which didn’t provide much warmth. The house chips were good as were the crafted cocktails. We left before ordering dinner due to the temperature and the lack of service. The table next to use asked for happy hour prices on their drinks and were told those prices were only available in the bar area, which doesn’t appear on the website. Clearly the restaurant has some issues to work out.
