He explained the dishes offered and even the chips and salsa were warm and delicious. The fajitas were outstanding and keep serving everything fresh...you can tell the difference when the chips and food is not reheated. But Francisco was the most pleasant server ever! Keep him happy.

Our waitress was so nice and worked hard to make sure that we were happy the whole time we were there. I am very impressed and will re-visit over and over. The only downside is that it is always packed so the rooftop seating, which is awesome, is almost impossible to get. We might try to go a little earlier next time to see if we can get up there for the live music and bar.
