Very good food. No wine. They just opened so I'm sure things will sort out soon. Friendly, kind waitress. They will make separate checks.

Dietary restrictions: Limited gf options

Parking: Might be difficult but I was lucky and found a spot very close by.

Nice place, don't look at those old photos, the place has been remodeled and is very nice. It has a delicious menu, authentic Mexican food, I don't upload photos because I forgot to take the food, but we ate fried mojarra, delicious tamales, mixed fajitas, tacos, charro beans, fresh waters and micheladas. The guys at Satff are very nice, they have excellent service.
