    Everyone enjoyed their meals very much, from our grandson's chicken strips to daughter-in-law's street corn, to my chipotle chicken enchiladas to the fajitas. Our son tried the very different PGH burrito and was pleased. Take home boxes were necessary because of the serving sizes. Service was prompt and pleasant. The noise level was disappointing. That was the one downfall.

    A group of us went for my birthday and it’s the perfect spot to celebrate. It’s very lively and the drinks are super fun. I got the queso and chicken chimichangas. Both were delicious. Our server was attentive and friendly.

    Food was great and service was excellent. They were very very busy with a lot of birthday parties so it was pretty loud.

    Great food and service. Our server was terrific and very friendly. The food was worth the price. However the noise level made the experience almost unbearable. I would suggest some noise reduction construction in the dining room.
