Reliably good food and margaritas at reasonable prices especially for Old Town. We had a table opposite a fireplace on the patio, which was special. Server was attentive and food arrived quickly. There is a small parking lot in the back.

The service was very good, but it was very crowded and very loud. Most of the food was quite good but some was just average.

The ambiance was nice, the drinks were good we had Moscow mules and ultimate margaritas. But the service was slow, we waited 20 mins to put our drink order in and about an hour for our food to arrive for a table of 8. We arrived before the rush, so not sure what caused the delay.

The service was so incredibly slow- no one stopped by or even offered us waters within 10 minutes of sitting there, chicken was awfully dry in my enchiladas.

Overall food was amazing. Great old town location. Definitely recommend. As with anything these days in the restaurant business prices are high and it's not cheap to eat out anywhere. We are selective where we spend our money on food and we left knowing we would come back.
