What a wonderful way to start a Sunday. The food that was ordered was excellent, well cooked, looking good on the plate, and delicious. A lovely combination of items on the main course that we ordered, that was not big but had wonderful component parts. The service was excellent. There were many other intriguing items the menu as well. Who could ask for anything more.

We were there for a family dinner after a wake. The food and service was impeccable as always. Our server was the best and attentive to us and as we were leaving , she offered her condolences to our family. This is why I chose to come here after. Always great service and never had a bad meal here.

What an amazing family owned Mexican restaurant! We were greeted with warmth and told they would definitely find us a table. The place was busy and they asked if we had made reservations. We had not, and we started at the bar with a trio of salsas and bean dip. All yummy! We also got the margarita flight which was really fun! You get to pick four flavors. Once we got to our table, it was refreshing to see typical items and new items that are not typical on the menu. The food was fresh and delicious. The people working were personable and kind. I cannot say enough about this place. We will be back!
