Johnathan is such a hard worker and the best. He wasn’t our server but went out of his way to make the experience great!
Enjoyed our dinner with friends. Good food and good service. Music felt a bit loud to talk over. All in all very enjoyable!
The salsas were good. The guacamole was average. The mushroom entree was good. The Carne Asada was good but salty. The tortillas were very good. The real screw up is that I ordered 2 top shelf tequilas with lime juice and simple syrup and they decided to put orange juice in them. They did give us some free churros at the end of the meal to make up for it. All in all it was expensive, the food was average and they ruined our drinks.
