The staff is always friendly and accommodating. The food is delicious! They always have nice specials and happy hour prices. They have indoor and patio seating too! Would highly recommend
I've been waiting a while to try this place and it did not disappoint! We'll definitely be back. One of the best cheese crisps I've ever had. I love that they give you 3 different salsas. There's so many tequilas to choose from too. Our server was great and funny, good customer service.
I'm from New Mexico, so coming into this restaurant my expectations were high. And let me tell you this restaurant did not disappoint. The food was so good it reminded me of home and my grandmothers cooking.
