Food was ok. Service was terrible. After my husband and child were served their food, I patiently waited for mine to come out. After 10 mins we finally asked and they said it would be right out. 15 mins after that they brought out my food and I asked them to make it to go. They seemed kind of irritated that we asked for it to be packed up to go. I would have asked them during that 15 mins, but there was no server to be found. Therefore unable to request it to go. My family was done with their food after the original 10 mins and they were tired of waiting.

I went with my girlfriend (a vegetarian) to eat this weekend. We were sat and asked the server for a minute to look over the menu. The “minute” we asked for turned into 25 minutes where the waiter was too busy looking at his phone in the corner. My girlfriend ordered a cheese quesadilla. Normally, the quesadillas are served with Queso fresco, but to our surprise hers made with shredded cheese. This was the icing on the cake after the long wait to order. Very disappointing visit.

Yo, fella that made the 2 watermelon margaritas to go, you’re the best. That was the best damn margarita I’ve ever had and I am no stranger to margaritas. Thank you!
The food was good too, as always.
