The food at the restaurant was good, but unfortunately, the service left a lot to be desired. I wouldn’t recommend having Taylor as your server. While I don’t expect overly chatty service, Taylor barely spoke to us at all and didn’t check in once after our food arrived. I was dining with my family of four, and while everyone else had started eating, I still didn’t have utensils. We couldn’t even locate her to ask for them and and I was left waiting til we saw her, called her over, then ask. At the beginning of our meal, Taylor offered to bring more chips and salsa, but never brought them and never acknowledged or apologized for forgetting. It was just another example of the lack of attention we experienced throughout the meal. To make matters worse, there was a hair in my food, I had to speak to a food runner to have the dish replaced because Taylor was nowhere to be found. She also took a long time to bring our to-go boxes and check, and then brought out a lemonade we had ordered much earlier, only once we were finished eating and ready to leave. Meanwhile, other servers seemed friendly and attentive, so it was frustrating that we didn’t receive the same level of service. Taylor seemed completely disengaged, probably because gratuity is automatically added and this really impacted the overall dining experience. Good food, but I definitely would not recommend having her as your server.

We got there around 10pm on a Saturday night. The server was amazing. We asked to sit outside. He was attentive and kind.
We ordered the wings and crab dip. The wings were great, but the crab dip was about 97 percent dip and no crab meat. Although the few pieces of crab we found was amazingly fresh and sweet. If they had put enough crab meat in it, it would have been an amazing dish. The 16$ it costs isnt worth the product that was recieved. Our server saw my disappointment and had fixed the issue.
I had an order of cajun shrimp and chicken pasta to go. Hubby had no complaints.

Wouldnt mind going back and would love to try the crab dip again if the dish gets any better.

Awful service. This restaurant still serves people outdated menus stating happy hour is 4-7PM when it is actually 3-6PM. Not only did our server not clarify this, but we were not reimbursed for the misconception. Managers were obviously unhappy with their wait staff which caused the service to be less than ideal. Wait staff are unhappy which directly impacts the service they give to customers. The food was actually good, but the overall experience was bad. Definitely won’t be returning.

When my sister, daughter, and I came to the restaurant, we were met with an unwelcoming energy. I asked the host if they had high chairs or booster seats and he said that they don’t. In my mind, he said this because he just didn’t want my family to come into the restaurant. We said that she could sit in a regular chair and that it was fine, He walked us to our table, and we saw a highchair sitting right next to the door. I said oh, so you do have high chairs. I started cleaning the highchair off with disinfectant wipes and he was so eager to be helpful at that point, after trying to deter us from coming in in the first place. The saving grace for this restaurant was our waiter. He was kind, considerate, and eager to help us out with my two-year-old by getting her order in first. The food was decent, nothing too special. The drinks were great. The host really left a sour taste in my mouth through the whole experience. Stop with the prejudices.

EDIT 7/15/25: they’re trying to save face now, but the host explicitly told me that they did not have booster seats or high chairs. Be cautious of this restaurant.

I, sadly, did not take photos of my food and bev here. But I can talk about how delicious it was! I got the steak enchiladas and a cucumber margarita with a half salt/half tajin rim. First, the enchiladas: I am used to a suburban-type Mexican restaurant where you could go to any place across the country and it would basically be the same; I usually get the ground beef enchiladas--this is not that--it is SO much better!! The steak was delicious, the enchilada sauce was incredible. Normally I could take or leave the sides but the rice and beans were SO good. The cucumber marg: I'm not sure if this is something my friend made up or if it's on the menu but it's perfect. If you prefer your margs a little less sour, this is the route to go. I loved it. The staff was so kind and accommodating. We had a MASSIVE party (15-20) and they managed to get all of our orders correct and out much faster than I expected. I honestly can't wait to come back here.

Service was horrible. Rhw waiter was rude and it was obvious he did not care about anything. The drink was not good nor did it taste like it had any alcohol in it. The shrimp salad sandwich was thw worst I've honestly ever had in my life! Do yourself a favor and do not waste your time or your money going here.

The only thing this place has going for it is the view. Food was okay. Nothing special. The service was horrible. It took forever for food and drinks to arrive. The waiter was not properly trained or supported by management. He messed up our check 4 times before we could pay. Maybe go here for a drink or two but don’t make this your choice for dinner.
