Fabulous experience! We got the Popeye Dip, which was amazing!! A gentleman, who I assume is the Manager, stopped at our table to ask us if we wanted the Wheat chips that came with the Popeye Dip. We were a little confused because our server had brought out more corn tortilla chips. We answered the manager that we would like to try the wheat chips. He came right out with them and apologized that we didn't receive them sooner. Game changer!! Amazing chips to go with this...

We were able to secure a table for 10 people to celebrate my Dad's 77th birthday. The staff was friendly and helpful. We had a great dinner! The food was good and a really nice experience with good margaritas.

Rebecca our waitress was nice but I was going to order dessert and while we were still eating, she brought us our bill and asked if we wanted a box. There was just one other family in the whole restaurant but it was as tho we were being pushed out the door
