    We had a wonderful dinner. The stuffed chicken dish was amazing! And the chopped wedge salad had a nice twist to a classic salad with the addition of fried shallots. Would definitely return their again!

    My hotel was right across the street from this restaurant so I decided to try it. What a nice surprise. They had the baseball game going on. I was seated at a great table to view the game. I ordered the fajitas with shrimp, filet mignon and chicken. I couldn’t believe the amount of food that they sent to me. It was enough for three people, but if you know me, I had no problem polishing it off. Everything on it was perfect. It was such a great meal. The chicken was moist. The steak was tender, and the shrimp was perfectly grilled. The guacamole was handmade. The beans had a ton of cheese on them and the rice and vegetables were cooked to perfection. When I go back up to Wine country, this will be a do again. The restaurant didn’t even know they had open table program set up and I asked them to check on it and they didn’t know what to check on till I showed him the app and how to do it then they realized I had my reservation there and they said they clicked on it so hopefully I got my points for it. But they’re excited to see they’re on that program. I advised them it was set up for better end restaurants and that’s what I like to visit. So now they know they’re in the upper echelon for Mexican food.

    Our meals were delicious. There is an early bird special during the week for $30. Prices on the menu are cash prices. If a credit card is used a 3.95% fee is added. Staff are personable and fun.
