    Great food, as usual. Our out of town guests said this was the best of the 5 restaurants we took them to. Jimmy is, by far, the best waiter in town!!

    Our server was amazing. He was knowledgeable about the menu and patient while we decided what to order. The food arrived quickly and was delicious down to the last bite! The margarita was $15 but worth every penny! I absolutely recommend and will certainly be back soon!
