Hello! My name is Burro. I love chef-inspired tacos, tequila drinks, good music (according to us), vegetarians, bourbon, graffiti, vegans, mood lighting, queso, AND YOU!! Our kitchen is 100% nut and GLUTEN-FREE, and we are 100% serious about that. For the "Liquid Diet" sort of crowd. Our bartenders are equally happy to whip you up a hand-crafted creation or a classic cocktail. If you just want a shot of tequila we're into that too. Okay, that's enough chit-chat. Let's eat.

We were celebrating a birthday. Right from the start, being greeted by a friendly host who was accommodating to our server who also was pleasant and attentive. The oysters were the best. All our entrees were excellent, and food was hot. A very nice experience.

The food was top notch for Greek food, everything tasted so good, food was a bit pricey for what you get in quantity but that is expected. The $38 Greek wine was amazing. It is a tight space so you don’t have a lot of room and it is always packed which is expected beauties of how good the food was. Great experience and great food so what else can you ask for.

Going to Earl’s always feels like you’re on vacation! Great ambience and location. The food is tasty and the menu changes seasonally. I went for lunch and had the greens salad with prawns. For dessert, we split the sticky pudding. Overall an excellent meal. If you want to treat yourself, I highly recommend Earls.
