“Have I really never reviewed this restaurant before? Shame on me! It's definitely the go-to for a great meal in Newland.
The food here is always delicious. I even try new things because I know it's going to be good. All of the staff from top to bottom are always sweet and helpful. Service is always quick. Don't get me started on the salsa bar. So many flavors from cool and creamy to hot and delicious. Portions are very generous.
My favorite dishes here are the pollo loco and grilled salmon salad. And did I mention their fabulous salsa bar?!“
