I have to say the service was very slow. My sister arrived before my husband and I did an order a margarita by this time we sat down at the table. She’d already been there for about 10 minutes. We actually got our drinks before she did and had to ask twice when she’d be getting her Mar. That was not appropriate I know they were busy, but they should’ve handled that differently. Food was great though.
