Great taco Tuesday! 😋
We got the sourdough, pumpkin side, shrimp, and the bourbon bread pudding. Best meal thus far in Hilo. Casual vibe! Will come again.
This was a great find for Sunday Night Football! Zac was awesome. Food & drinks were great. It was a beautiful day with a nice breeze flowing in from the open windows. Definitely recommend!
