Always get good fresh food here for fair prices. My husband and I went for lunch and got two entrees with a side of guacamole for $35. You really cannot beat that for good fresh tasting food.

I got the 10-inch chicken quesadilla to give this place a try. It had Monterey Jack cheese, tomatoes, and peppers in what was the portion of a medium pizza. However, the chicken to cheese ratio was disappointing. Ultimately, I paid about $20 for a cheese quesadilla. I wonder if it would have been better to do the standard 4 slices of one flour tortilla? Service wise, the place wasn't terrible, but there did seem to be disorganization for a place that wasn't busy when...

Zion was so lovely!!! She’s been my server twice now and she’s so sweet and great at her job. She’s always so efficient and calm, makes you feel welcomed and gets you everything you need in a timely manner. Zion gets things done with a smile on her face and won’t hesitate to solve an issue for her guests, great job! This sweet girl needs a raise we love her.
