    The food was really good. The manager was our server and he made the moment even more fun. He was friendly and really polite.

    Our server was great- the chips and salsa were fantastic! The portion sizes were way too big- embarrassingly big. Four of us could have shared one entree. The chicken tortilla soup was more like chili than soup and came to the table lukewarm. My nachos were also not hot, like they had been sitting around for a bit. Everyone else at the table seemed to like their food. Overall good. Would go back and use a different strategy when ordering.

    I had the short ribs chimichangas, my wife had the seafood enchiladas. Both were great with lots of flavor and plenty on the plate. Drinks, margaritas, were delicious! Desert was not so great but ok. The lava cake was a bit dry.

    We didn't realize that there would be a drag Brunch upstairs and it's sort of drowned out the Yacht Rock brunch music. But as always the food was fabulous and the service was amazing!
