Cute place that I've never noticed! Super friendly employees, fast service. Food was good, I'd like to try again to see if something is great. Friday happy hour and the place was super loud! We'll be back.

My brother loves this place, but him and a friend were throwing up shortly after eating it. I tried the left overs….. spit out after biting into piece of chicken I knew was not cooked thoroughly. Don’t know if these pics show well enough but for sure it is why they were

I get it, in today's world, 4 shots or 4 drinks and you're cut off. Just sucks.Rene was a great server, she gets it.

Too loud! Can carry on a conversation. Food so so.

It was a very "meh" experience. The steak salad is just your standard mixed salad from a bag with super dry, thin almost jerky like steak on it. The half quesadilla you get with it is standard and fine. The menu is filled with so much random stuff that didn't seem to make sense. Our waiter was very nice and service was fairly quick.The chips we got to start were bland and stale tasting and came with normal salsa and a very odd looking white bean salsa type thing. I didn't taste it because it looked off-putting. The atmosphere was very loud for 4pm on a Thursday with workers slamming things and banging things behind the bar area so much I couldn't hear my partner speak. We won't be back.

Fish tacos on happy hour are $7.95 for one, BUT they give you two very generous portions of halibut in a shell, or tortilla with cabbage, Pico and some sort of yummy sauce - they're really wonderful! They're good every time! Got the special today, spicy prawn skewers. 8 prawns slathered in a spicy concoction, they're juicy and meaty! Great citrus and spice flavour, not overcooked, they're messy, though, so get extra napkins!I've had the Chili rejellnos (however that is spelled, apologies) here before and they're also incredible. Great food, the prices are very reasonable!Only complaint is they don't have wifi so I can't enjoy a drink and play games.

Rice was dry and clumpy, and the chicken taco was bland. My husband liked his enchilada, and the salad was huge.

Too loud. My son and I went for a late lunch around 3:45 during the week. There were people in the bar area practically screaming ,combined with the loud music, it was impossible to converse with my son. We couldn't even hear our waitress. We decided to take our food to go. Food Is average. For the price, go to happy hour.

The food has gone down hill. But it's still a good atmosphere and decent drinks.

Went for lunch on a whim. The service and food was great. The chicken and pepper jack cheese was delicious and huge. I was able to eat 1/4 and brought the remainder home. The only negative ... the lighting is terrible and the menu print is awful. Our waitress said they were printing new menus. Let's hope so. I will definitely return for happy hour.

My friends and I came for the Margaritas, but had the best experience with our waitress Ashley!! She was wonderful! Very personable and funny. Would definitely recommend and return for both the delicious margaritas and Ashley. Ps she also remembered my friend Julie as a guest from over a year ago!

The restaurant from my childhood. I love the food and atmosphere, and the Shirley Temple cocktail is nostalgic. I have to knock down a star due to them taking out waffle fries but it's aight.
