We loved the service and the drinks. The food was okay, fried fish which came with chips (fries). Felt it was a small portion for the price.
Drinks were great! They do good happy hour deals. Service was very attentive and friendly. She would come over just as we came to the end of our drinks so we were never left with a empty. Which surprisingly was a first during our 2 week holiday.
Sport showing on the screens and music in the background.

I’ve recommended this place to my peers for years. The management is fantastic and the staff cares about customer service. The food is the best Mexican food we’ve had, and we’re from Houston. Can not recommend this place enough.

Great prices, great drinks. A wide variety of options to choose from. Service was on point, even though they were packed. Salsa is top notch, and I am picky with salsa. Nice relaxed atmosphere you can watch a game or whatever and snack on shareable items. Obviously a dinner is great too, but we had a great time just getting random items here and there.
