My husband and I dined there for the first time today, and it was a fantastic experience. I ordered the incredibly flavorful fish tacos with a perfectly crispy exterior that made each bite a delight. The portions were generous, ensuring we felt satisfied. We also tried the queso, which was rich and creamy with just the right amount of spice; I would rate it a solid 10 out of 10! Everything exceeded our expectations, and we can't wait to return.

We were there on a Tuesday night. Late. Not busy, but our server, Emma. was great. Food was excellent. Our drinks, a margarita and and old fashioned were perfect. Kudos to the bartender. Would definitely return and highly recommend

The place is not what I thought it would be. It is very spacious and beautiful inside. The hostess was courteous and friendly. We sat quickly. The waiter was very prompt and friendly. He knew the menu as he answered our questions about it. He was coming and checking on us enough without checking back to often. The food was very good and the portions were a little on the small side for the prices they charged. We will still recommend this place and come back.
