My wife and I love eating here and it's a good place to bring friends and family. I think they have the best chips and queso in town. They had a frozen mojito at one time and I wish they'd bring it back.

Our waiter, the last several visits, has been the most polite and helpful young man I have ever met. He has made our visits genuinely that much sweeter.
