Lunch is overpriced, service lacking

Before you commit, there is not really a lunch menu. The server offered 2 tacos for $10 or 2 enchiladas for $12. I asked if quesadillas came in a lunch portion and he said he could work something out. I ordered a chicken quesadilla and...More

Catering Staff is Amazing!

Our daughter's rehearsal dinner was here last week and they took great care of our party. The catering facility is across from the restaurant - separate. The food was good, the bartender was GREAT! They replenished food and cleared plates to keep the party rolling.

Worth going to

This place has decent food. Some of it is a little off of the standard Mexican flavor that you would expect, overall I would recommend. Drinks are unique, prices are a little steep if you ask me. Make sure you have reservations, it is a...More
