The ambiance was perfect, the service was excellent, and the food was pretty good. The passion fruit margarita was okay, but still enjoyable. Overall, I really recommend this place! 😊

Delicious and plentiful. Two of us easily shared the guacamole & chips, and chicken fajitas for lunch (and we were stuffed). Best classic lime margaritas too!

We arrived as the restaurant opened. Had Baja (fish) tacos (very good if too much mayo) and the Asada meat tacos. The meat was left over from previous day…dry and hard. The tater tots were very good. Had brunch a month ago and was much better. Will go back but probably won’t have the Asada tacos.
