From being greated at the door and seated shortly after on very busy night we had a perfect night. Frank our waiter was great and all the staff were very knowledgeable and helpful. The food was amazing and served in a timely manner as to not overwhelm us or overload the table and the margaritas were so tasty, especially the avocado one ..yum.
