I mean, is anything in the airport great? I liked that they delivered to my seat and it came with napkins and plastic cutlery. I ordered two tacos, one shrimp and one chorizo. The shrimp was spongy as if it was unfrozen too fast, small and had a funny aftertaste. The sauce on it tasted like watered down ketchup. The chorizo was super salty and dry. I’m not factoring in cost/value because it’s an airport. If water can be $5, 2 tacos can be $24. I thought about giving it 4 stars, but there are a lot better places to eat in this airport than here.

Be careful with the tip they add to your payment, I feel scammed
possibly the worst guac ive had in my life. tasted like ice with raw onions i can’t describe it better. the aftertaste is somehow worse. nachos were sooo greasy and also tasted like nothing. all this for $20. bargain.

So when you order an hour before your flight, you expect you might see the food before you need to board. Well, that isn't the case. 45 minutes after ordering, I had to get a refund as there was no food to be found. The lady next to me, she received her food twice. You read that correctly. After she was finished eating, the delivered her order again. Obviously, there is no one managing this restaurant. For what it costs to get a sandwich, one might think assuming great food and service is a must.
I have no idea if the food is good or not.

The first half of the experience was great! Bartenders were awesome. Second half was full of anger and misery. We asked to fill our water bottle and the 2nd shift guy told us to hike down to the bathrooms to fill it (even though the previous bartenders gave us cups of water). When we returned because it was broken, the angry little lady bartender begrudgingly gave us a glass of hot water.

We had a great bartender and then there was a shift change. 2 new bartenders came on and complained when we asked to fill water containers. Referred us to the restrooms nearby but those machines were not functioning. Let them know that and they stuck to their guns. Asked for a glass of ice water and got an angry cup of warm water with no ice from the tiny lady with many ear piercings. We had already ordered and paid for several beers and cocktails in our group. I wouldn’t even complain about this if it was a uniform policy but the first bartender we had REPEATEDLY told us to not order water drinks because he could fill our containers. Why the eff am I even reviewing an airport bar?? I don’t expect the world but I do expect consistency and even a mild attempt at service. Again, it’s an airport so why should I expect it to be any good, I guess?

Skip this dump. I ate here and paid $20 for 2 potato and egg tacos. They tasted good but for the next 3 days I was so sick it nearly ruined my honeymoon. The feeling came about 30 minutes into a 4.5hr flight to St. Thomas. Get some chips and hold out till you get where you are going. I ate here on 7-16-24.

Really good food for an airport! I got the two taco plate and thought that everything was very fresh and super flavorful. I appreciated being able to watch the food being made in front of me, too.
One complaint: please clean the stools! The wooden slats where you actually sit are fine, but the section of the seat beneath/between them is coated with chip pieces and crumbs.
Britney and Cynthia were great

Ridiculously overpriced food, and so bland and bad. $27 for the equivalent of a microwaveable burrito - I found it amusing they still give you plastic silverware despite it’s a sit down place. Oh well it’s an airport and it didn’t make me sick at least ?♂️
There are at least nice seats with chargers where you can hang
