Still a favorite low key spot. Had the steak… I think the recipe has changed. My lime had no juice and I’m not use to that but overall service amazing as usual! Host very accommodating! Valet service even quick for a Saturday night!

Very good, as always, except that they've removed the strawberry margarita from the menu. That was my favorite, and I missed it greatly!
