    One of our guests ordered chicken burrito and got a steak burrito . After waiting so long he just said it’s ok . The other said no onions in his tacos and got onions he had to scrape them off which meant a lot of the rest of toppings had to be taken off . That was disappointing.

    The food is basically inedible. The brisket on the nachos were full of fat. The steak in my tacos were ice cold and not chewable, choking hazard.

    We arrived a few minutes before our reservation and prior to the dinner rush. We were seated right away and our server took our drink and appetizer order quickly. Food was very good, as usual, and the service was friendly. This restaurant can get really busy so I’m happy to see that they’re now using Open Table.
