Food was good server very attentive, unable to use power outlet to charge device due to floor layout table’s, I would recommend this place for anyone that like good customer serve and strong margarita.
December 2025
I was impressed by how friendly and attentive the staff were. The restaurant was spotless, and the background TV volume was comfortable—never intrusive. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, with regular customers enjoying their meals. There’s a great range of food choices, and the menu makes ordering easy with clear descriptions and appealing photos. Prices felt reasonable, offering good value for the quality. Was surprised that my $9 burrito didn't come with chips...
