   First time there was very good. It was a little cold outside, so we asked for our table to be switched and the gentleman at the desk was very nice. Our food came. Unfortunately my soup was a little cold but the server Shawn was fantastic. He apologized Had it taken back and within minutes it was back nice and hot! As an international flight attendant, I applaud good customer service when I see it hence this review… Well done !

   Beautiful restaurant overlooking green space near baseball field. Interior is nicely decorated. Service is very nice but food delivery seems slow. Food is good and served very hot when delivered. Overall good place just service is slow.

   Our server, Destiny, was amazing. Very professional and efficient. The food was excellent. We had the Chimichangas (recommended by our server) and they were the best I’ve ever tasted. Seriously good.

   Hello Sue, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us this amazing 5-star review! We agree that Destiny is wonderful, and we are lucky to have her! We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your Chimichangas! Pro tip: next time try it Sam Style with a Crispy Beef Taco on the side! We hope to see you again soon!

   Seated properly and timely. However, after 15 minutes of being at our table we had to ask if any server was assigned to us. Finally a waitress came and the rest of the evening was terrific. Note: parking was terrible. Spring training game going on. Parking must be reserved for patrons on restaurants in that loop. We had to walk quite a ways to get to Blanco. Was not happy about that.

   Hi! Thank you for the review. I am sorry to hear it took far too long for a server to come to your table. Noone likes to feel like they were forgotten, and it is definitely not our standard. We expect every table to be greeted within 2 minutes. I am glad the rest of the meal was great, but poor start. We are better than that. I will be sending you a private message to continue working towards a resolution to our less than perfect experience. As for parking, the front two rows in front of our building are reserved for restaurant parking. We also provide complementary valet around game time. If the process was not clear, or you were unable to park there, I am sorry. We will work to improve those things. Thank you again. Jake McMillen General Manager

    Soccer mom brunch 😊. Super yummy food, great service, great price! We stayed for hours and never felt pressured to leave. Server was extremely attentive and kind. We had a great time. The guacamole and tacos, especially the shrimp and avocado were tasty.

    Hi, Jaxs! The last thing we want our guests to feel is unappreciated and one of the easiest ways to do that is to rush them. Really happy to hear you enjoyed your mom brunch with us on Sunday! Jake McMillen General Manager
