    The only negative is the doors open to back patio make it cold inside and the noise level is pretty high for conversation. Food and service and drink are great. Love the complimentary cornbread!

    The reason for star rating is that the entree was served at the same time as the queso starter. Cold queso or cold entree?

    Happy Hour food was very good. I ordered the Ahi Tuna entree. That was a bit over-cooked. The glaze on it was very good. The prices were very reasonable. I wish it was cooler out, they have a beautiful patio! We will be back.

    Great lunch experience. Our server was very attentive and helpful, even as the place started to get busy. He replenished my lemonade when he saw that it was low without me asking. We ordered the Salsa Trio (I was warned that one of the trios of chili salsa is very spicy, and it was), Agua Chile Shrimp Ceviche, and Catfish Tacos. All were very good. The free cornbread was addictive. Great location and restaurant felt spacious; we sat near the window to get a view. Will return again.
