They do have vegan options which include Beyond meat and vegan cheese subs. However, I was surprised by the lack of vegetable options for a place with the happy cow sticker. It was all good though, especially the drinks. The salsa was interesting and tasty. Black beans are vegan. Our server seemed well aware of how to accommodate us and service was great.

We have been many times through the last few years and last night was awful. We ( my husband and I) asked to sit out side right next to the big window with a table that came in after us on the other side of the window inside, there were 2 servers and maybe 5-6 tables inside. We got our chips and salsa from the server with dark hair (the other was blonde), They had been chit chatting and doing other things we could see and were trying to be patient, we waited like 15 mins not having any water or ordering drinks, I finally went inside to the bar and asked if we needed to use the QR code on the the table or come into the bar to order and she just smiled and nodded then I asked again, so we do come in to order? She said yes and I could see a menu if I needed…I said well no you sat us right outside and pointed to our table you could very clearly see next to 2 other tables….She then asked if we were ready and I said yes, and I assumed she followed me out….she came out after a min we ordered our food and drinks. We got our drinks like 10 mins later, I asked for a double and got a single, when the server came back with our warm/cold food 20 mins later I made sure it wasn’t a double and the server told me no it was a single and even cut me off and said she knew I ordered a double but messed up and didn’t say anything about it 😂. There was 4 people that got seated at a table next to us right after we ordered our food outside with no new tables inside other then ours and theirs outside, that the blonde server was serving. By the time we were leaving like 15-20 mins later, they had their full meal all served to them with drinks and chips and salsa coming out regularly. I even asked our server if they thought we were going to not pay or something and that is why we were being ignored and asked if we started a tab so they have our card and payment at the begging of the meal, next time if we would be treated better….she just brushed it off and didn’t really even say no but that she was sorry for holding us hostage for so long. The portions of food was way smaller then last time, maybe it was just a bad time to go but for $67, 1 Margarita, 1 non alcoholic drink, 2 entrees with more rice then food was not worth the awful service, it was crazy. We were going to leave after the 20 mins we waited to get our drink order, then after the drink thing and another 20 mins of waiting but, were just annoyed and confused at the whole thing. The charge for using a card was never told to us either but I couldn’t tell if the server was intentionally being the way she was or maybe if it was just a compete misjudgment of the whole thing but either way it crazy and a bummer because the food is usually soooooooo good. We were there for atleast an hour if not pushing about an hour and a half.

Delicious! They are creamy salsa served with the nachos was excellent, not spicy. The chicken in the taco meat was nicely seasoned and pinto beans were good.

Incredible experience. Best chips and salsa I’ve ever had. Every part of the experience was top notch. Food was amazing. Chatted with the owner for a while about the history of the area…seems like a great guy that loves the community that he owns a business in. Can’t wait to come back and try something else on the menu.

First of all I will say do not come here if you’re in a rush. When I came I had plenty time to spare and did not mind waiting as I seen it was busy with only one server and he was bartending as well. Being in similar business kudos to him! I got some wine and Peruvian food and it was delicious! Love the open window seating and the sleek ambiance. It gives peaceful and modern and a nice place to just people watch and get some of the outdoors inside. Will definitely return. Love this area

The food tasted wonderful. None of the cocktails had prices and the server told us the wrong prices. I ordered the “2 flautas” and what was served was laughable. I’m not sure how they cut 2 flautas up into 5 even pieces, with only one end piece. Great food, laughable experience. They also added a $1.38 charge for “non cash adjustment”
