The food was delicious. Perfect casual location for our large group of 17. They accommodated perfectly. They even fired up the campfire pits for us to cook the s’mores finings we brought ourselves. Highly recommend!

A great place in n the Riverwalk. Our sever (Malek, if I remember correctly) was excellent. The hatch cheese dip with chorizo was a winner. My wife and I got the chicken sandwich and the burger and split them so we each had a half. We both agreed the burger was pretty good but the chicken was excellent. Lastly, it was my wife’s birthday so they brought her some churros with caramel and chocolate dipping sauces that were amazingly good. It’s pricey for what it is, like everything on the Riverwalk, but overall an excellent experience so we didn’t mind the cost.
