    True rating 5/10 Simple and clean Tex-Mex. Great free appetizers with the chip dipping options that are great. Ordered Steak and Shrimp also Shrimp of Ajo. Shrimp was excellent but the steak ordered rare didn't seem up to par. Service was fast for both my orders. Restaurant also participating in the T-Mobile dining advantage. They also have Coca Cola Zero.

    I have passed by this restaurant several times and was invited here for a happy hour gathering on 3/27. I really wish I would've known about them sooner and I wish I took pictures because the presentation was great too. I had 2 El Jimador Skinny margaritas on the rocks (any more than 2 requires a designated driver ). I also ordered a shrimp fajita chimichanga, with black rice, and black beans refried beans. EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING was absolutely delicious with very large quantities!!! The service was great as well. I will certainly be back. No doubt about that.

    Drew was the most best food carrier ever, he was so daddy and tall. Literally just him walking up to the table was too much for me.

    First time here. I came for the happy hour and I I ordered quail. I thought the platter was very good. Their salsa is pretty spicy. Service was great. The servers are very attentive. Nice patio area. I will return.
