Terrific food and even better service. They made sure we had plenty of chips/salsa at the table and we were checked up on by multiple servers throughout our meal. One even came by and made paper airplanes and boats for our kids, they loved the attention!
100% recommend. Amazing food. Super quick service- it wasnt crazy busy when we were there but still, we were seated immediately and had our drinks, chips, and salsa within 45 seconds! Very friendly service and inviting atmosphere. Great pricing. The most memorable part of our experience was the staff helping to solve a heated debate that my husband and I got into about the photo of Frida (I don't remember the last name I'm so sorry) on the wall. It was kind of hilarious how involved...read full review
The food is always amazing and the service is hands down the best I have ever had!!
