We got there and we got sat down pretty quickly but then that was all the service I got. I literally got up 20 minutes into sitting there with no water. Nobody coming over to take our order nothing I got up to go ask how much longer and still did not get an apology. the lady did take my order right away and told me she wasn’t even my server. Then I said who was because there was only three of them there. Very bad customer service if it isn’t because the food is good. I don’t think they would have as much people there

Food was excellent but service was absolutely the worst I’ve received in recent memory. Lunch took over 1.5 hours, I never had my drink refilled, and there were absurd charges for extra limes. (2 wedges was $1). May return but not anytime soon. The food was excellent but it was such an awful experience overall.
