    Perfect spot for a first date. The bartender was clearly handling a lot by herself and still was attentive and kind. Will be back!

    From the time we walked in we were acknowledged and greeted, quickly sat with a fresh bottle of cool water and then greeted by our waitress who happened to be our bartender. Drinks were 10/10, almost everything we ordered was 10/10 and I will be returning!

    Food and service was great . Unfortunately it took a long time to get our meal, and one of two meals was cold. Great spot for a week day when they are less busy. Kitchen and Bar just could not keep up on a busy night. Wait staff did a great job !

    Stopped in before a concert and was pleasantly surprised. The food was delicious! The Chorizo Queso, Burria Taco, and tofu tacos were all excellent

    Great experience. Some of the best nachos I’ve ever had and tacos were good too. Winter mule drink was great. Very nice server and staff…gave us a complimentary glass of champagne. Thank you!
