    Vie was so good we were wondering how the change to Petite Vie would compare. Gotta say we were more than satisfied and now we are just as excited to go back! Food was phenomenal and so was the service. Always helps when you sit at the bar and Pat takes care of you too!!! They kept just enough of the old to make the new even better!

    The ambiance and drinks was really good! The steak and chicken fajitas were good as well just would have liked the veggies cooked more. I thought the menu had more of a selection but it didn’t. I would definitely go back for the drinks!! Oh the Ceviche was bomb and guacamole was good as well. 8/10
