“We stopped in for dinner on a beautiful Sunday evening after a busy day watching our daughter compete athletically. We had a short 15 minute wait (for a booth inside) as was discussed with the polite young man at the host stand. The restaurant seemed to have a steady flow of guests with most tables occupied. Though there were also several tables unoccupied, they were in need of immediate attention being cleared. I noticed several staff meandering around but ignoring the unkept tables. Once we got sat, we were greeted by our server after maybe 5 minutes or so. He was very efficient in the beginning, quickly bringing our drinks and taking a food order for our hungry daughter. Her food came out fast which was fantastic. Once we placed the remaining food order, we basically never saw our server again. We asked other staff for a minor food correction, more chips & salsa, and other necessary things during our meal. THE FOOD WAS OUTSTANDING!! Came out within a timely manner. Our server came back to check on us as we were finishing up. He did bring me some containers for our unfinished food but no bag to place the different size containers in (which I couldn’t comfortably carry). Our table had zero dishes or glasses removed which made it challenging for me to pack up our food with all the clutter. I will say he was very kind in bringing me a bag of fresh chips to take home. When it was time for me to pay our bill, our server presented an electronic handheld device to process my credit card payment. Once payment was processed, and it was time for the gratuity to be added (mind you he’s still holding the small device but has it positioned where it’s partially visible to me) without hesitation, he starts to automatically press the 20% gratuity button as he says to me, “20% right?” I found this to be so brazen and incredibly rude. I told him I’d tip him accordingly which ended up being more than the 20% (after I had to walk up to the host stand to ask for a bag and ask why the handheld timed out before completing my payment with added gratuity). I’ve worked in this industry for longer than dirt and appreciate that he came to work so that my family and I could have a nice dinner out. I don’t know if this is standard procedure for your service staff to feel entitled to a certain tip percentage regardless of their effort or urgency, or if he just felt that he deserved that but he overstepped boundaries. I didn’t see any management or else I would’ve addressed it during our visit. I’d like to reiterate that our food was truly delicious and I’m thankful for those that showed up for their shift. We’ve always had lovely visits to your establishment without incident.“
“The bartender Shanna was amazing. We are from out of town. We went there Wednesday night and liked it so much we went back Thursday night. She remembered what we drank from the night before. Her daughter is a waitress and was very kind and fun to talk to.“
“Almost empty on a spring weeknight. My s-in-law's fajita dinner was huge and he especially enjoyed the carnitas. I thought my chicken taco and enchiladas were a little dry, but they came with plenty of rice and refried beans. The grandkids devoured their meals an I appreciated that small cones were included with their meal. Nonetheless, we ordered desert, which the six of us together could not finish. The bill came out to a very reasonable $100.“
