The service was amazing! Our server Zack was fun, funny and so attentive to our needs before we had to even ask. Our drinks were so yummy and came out quick and our food was outstanding.

We will be back soon and will be requesting Zack again!!!

Haley made our night at The Matador! She was kind, funny, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. Her food and drink pairing recommendations were spot on, and she kept us laughing the entire evening. Hands down one of the best servers we’ve ever had! 🌮🍹✨

We went right when they opened and unfortunately the service was a bit slow. I ordered the vegetarian enchiladas and they were underwhelming, but the atmosphere was nice. Overall it was an okay experience.
