    Great service from our server, but our table was close to the door and ridiculously cold. We complained twice, and were first told it would get warmer (it didn’t m) and then that no other tables were available. Food was solid and generous portions. Flan was too dense, but had good flavor.

    So fun! Our waitress (Shona) told us the story of the beginning of the restaurant. She also gave us great recommendations. We loved all the food and I loved the Margarita Swirl. Was a great time with my husband of 44 years.
