   We went because of the 5 star rating on Opentable, and were sorely disappointed. The food was mediocre; the best dish being the guacamole. The drinks were not crafted well. We paid $17 for what turned out to be a very basic (and small) margarita. And the cherry on top was the disappearing waitress. Thankfully, the company was good.

   I was expecting more high level food and atmosphere. Everything was old, and the door that painted ruined my husband’s sweater. I do not think that I will come back again.

   Had family come into town to visit and reserved at able the day before, we were split into two different tables so they wouldn’t have to clean up another room. We all piled into one of the tables they had for us and made it work. It was a Tuesday, they said they ran out of green sauce over the weekend so didn’t have any to serve. That’s really the the only reason we went there, and they didn’t seem to care that they didn’t have any or make any attempt over the few days to make any.

   A quick date night with myself. I was seated immediately when I arrived since I had a reservation. The server was okay, it was busy night and she had a few tables. My enchilada plate was amazing like usual and my house margarita was just right.

   We love this place. Tony and his team always take such great care of us and the food is always great. The new menu is fantastic, with lots of new options, but they kept our old favorites!

   I was expecting more…I really didn’t need a reservation, the place was empty on taco Tue. I would not make a special trip to dine at the establishment again…

    Awesome experience! The service was great and drinks were yummy and strong. We had 8 for brunch and it was great. I had the Mac and cheese elote with steak. It was delicious!
