    The food really was good, as it has been every time we've been there. The couple that we brought with us also enjoyed their meal.

    Everyone loved their food! Only reason I took off a star was because they messed up my order but they did take care of us when that happened. Chips were addictive and delicious! Service was great.

    Staff was fantastic. Sat a few minutes early by host. Server very attentive. Outside "alley" was less noisy and good ambiance. I get their cheese crisp with steak, almost every time but this time it was dry. Still flavorful though.

    We were told my locals this place had the best tacos in town but it fell flat for us. Tacos had very little filling and were just okay. Service was also very slow
