Tried this place for the first time the other day. It was a tad chilly but we wanted to sit outside and our waiter offerd up one of those heater things right away. So service was just top quality from the get. The building is very pretty and we really enjoyed the ambiance. Food was delicious although I had to take most of it home since we ordered queso fundido and chile relleno which was essentially eating 3lbs of cheese. But worth it because cheese.

The food was ok.... I guess I'm used to Mexican restaurants that when you order fajitas, they bring out a hot skillet... my fajitas were served lukewarm on a plate. Meat was overcooked. Tortillas were cold. Service was good but it was not very busy so I don't know what it would be like if it was busy. Portions were ok: waitstaff very nice
