    The service was good but our waitress could have been more friendly. She did check in on us often, however she seemed stand off. It was our 1st time there which I mention to her so we had questions.

    There’s a reason why it’s easy to get a reservation here on a Saturday. Drinks were terrible, low pours, all lime and mixes. Food was mid level at best. My shrimp brochettes were so tiny I was still hungry. Had to wait 10 mins to get a table cleaned when we arrived. At no time was this place ever busy. $200 in drinks for 6 people and zero buzz. Terrible. We won’t be back.

    We went for the Houston Restaurant Week menu and were pleasantly surprised. The food was fantastic as expected and the portions made for a take home lunch! Chips and salsa to start were tasty. Started with the appetizer nachos which were temperature hot and delish. The sampler platter was great and made for that second meal. The sopapilla dessert was a great sweet and cinnamony delight. Water glasses were regularly refilled and the wait staff was very pleasant

    We had a great time. I introduced my boyfriend and another couple that had not been to the Sunday Brunch before. They definitely want to return. It may end up being our go to brunch date spot. Food was great and drinks poured really well. Service was great. Will definitely be back.

    The service continues to be excellent, the food not so much. Ordered crispy beef tacos and the shells were horribly stale and not crispy at all. Tortillas for tacos al carbon were soggy.

    We met friends there for dinner on Friday evening and while the food and service were excellent, the noise level was so extremely loud we couldn’t have a conversation at our table. We were seated in the bar area, but across the room from the bar. Between the extremely loud music and a large group drinking only, the noise level was just too much. We definitely won’t return on a Friday evening!

    Food order came out wrong and then took a while to fix the last item. All the drinks tasted different, the second one was really good, the first and last were all lime. It seems they have lost their availing to be consistent, which made the experience bad overall

    Service was fine. Food was mediocre. Chicken enchiladas not very flavorful. Blackened redfish was small and thin and dry and overcooked. Haven’t been here in years and probably won’t return anytime soon.

    Made a reservation on OpenTable based on a time their website advertised. Showed up ten minutes early. They told me they couldn’t seat me because they were closing an hour before the website said they closed. Reviewed them on Yelp, manager DMed me offering to call, never called.

    Had a reservation that was not available when we arrived. The table that we were finally given legs continued to fold in and made it uncomfortable to eat because the table would fall and our food would spill on us and the table would hit our legs. Advised the hostess and she acted like nothing was wrong with that problem/ table. We advised several people that the enchiladas were cold. The beef ones and shrimps were not hot or warm for that matter which was terrible because your food is normally good when served in the restaurant and never cold or room temperature. No one seemed concerned or care.

    Friendly and efficient waiter, great ambiance with very good background music, excellent chips, queso and quacamole with very good beef and chicken fajitas and good margaritas as well. $15 pitchers of margs before 7 pm are a plus. Highly recommend.

    It was hard to know where the entry into the restaurant was exactly and once we got in on the side there was no hostess station so not it is like a bar except you don’t seat yourself. It took 5 minutes for the waitress to finally come to the table but she was a good waitress except after the check was signed and collected we never saw her again. There was a point we saw her but she was hugged up on another guest. We were not offered a dessert either, lucky we were full and not going to get one.

    Front of house service was good, but food coming out of the kitchen was slow. We were there for Restaurant Weeks, and it seemed like they didn’t make (note that was MAKE not PLATE) the desserts until we put in the order (after we were done with our entrees).
