    We had reservations, arrived and was seated within 5 minutes. The ambience was great, backdrop of Windrose Ave decorations and shopping, warm lighting and vibrant atmosphere. Our waiter was great, he made recommendations and was very attentive. We ordered the spinach queso dip and carne asada fajitas; the food was hot, well seasoned. The steak tasted great, just too fatty and too much connective tissue. I had the original margarita, my wife had the watermelon mint margarita. They were dangerously delicious. Overall, our experience was very good, we’ll come back and try other entrees.
