    We had a delicious lunch today, we sat on the lovely patio and all four of us enjoyed our meals immensely. The inside looks so fun and would rival the outside for ambience. We had a lovely view of the mountains and the wash behind, the outdoor fireplace looked so inviting too on a chilly evening. It would be so nice to sit out there. The vibe was very fun. We all had something different from different burgers to chicken too The steak sandwich and they were all terrific. Our server Tyler, made us feel so welcome and comfortable. Thank you for memorable lunch, we will definitely be back and are already looking forward to it!

    The food was really amazing, and our server was awesome! Their nachos cannot be beat! Really enjoyed our evening. The ambience was so wonderful before they did their renovation, it’s not as special now.
