   Tonya was our server. I am always so impressed with the service every time we come to visit. The double decker tacos are my fave and the drinks are always on point. Tonya was efficient, friendly, and very accommodating. Will definitely be back!

   We sat outside and loved the atmosphere. Server was a bit short with us. When our family’s meal was served, the soup for one of our guests was very cold, not even warm. When asked to have it heated, it took so long that everyone was done eating so she ended up having to take it to go. The second bowl of soup that was brought out was about half the portion of the first bowl. However, everything tasted great and we would probably go again.

   The food was terrible, our Carne Asada Tacos were the worst ever. The meat was previously cooked and warmed up, it was hard, dry and no taste. My wife’s taco salad was ok, hard to make mistake when cooking ground beef. We ordered Nachos for one of The kids and it had a few slivers of lettuce and jalapeños on top. The food here reminded me of The food from Wolf Lodge water parks.

   We went on Taco Tuesday, and the tacos were delicious. Enes was our server and he was amazing, served us with a smile!

   Understaffed. The staff was polite and apologetic, informing customers that the wait would be 1.5 hours without a reservation. Thankfully, we had a reservation and were seated fairly quickly. Upon being seated, we were surprised to see that the restaurant was nearly empty—perhaps only five tables were occupied. Despite there being just two other tables in our area, the wait for water and silverware was unreasonably long. When they finally brought our napkin-wrapped silverware, one napkin was grossly stained. Two of our three entrées were not prepared correctly. They did offer to comp my entrée because it had to be completely remade, which made our wait even longer. I ordered the blackened mahi-mahi, and while the portion of fish was generous, the dish did not match the menu description. The fish wasn’t blackened, and there was no grilled pineapple salsa as listed. The cabbage slaw was wilted and lacked seasoning or flavor. I made the best of it by squeezing fresh lime over the fish and sautéed fajita vegetables. This dish had so much potential but ultimately missed the mark. Lastly, if you are seated for an extended time, the woven wicker chairs become extremely uncomfortable. If the weather is nice, I suggest requesting a table outside. The patio is quite lovely, and you can enjoy the moon and stars while enduring your dining experience.

   Can Nachos are a waste of money! Literally nothing but chips with a few little added items just to make you think you got nachos and not just chips…. Terrible waste! Don’t do it!!!

    We did not have a good experience with errors starting at arrival and continuing. Our server was great but everyone else made constant mistakes in seating, drinks ordered, and food. It was a very frustrating and unpleasant evening. We were 4 adults and 2 children.
