4+ workers standing around talking. With only a few guests to wait on in the entire restaurant. We spent more time here waiting for our waitress to come over to put in our dessert order and then to also bring the check. Bringing out the one dessert took just as long and i can only imagine it wasbecause the waitress was too busy running her mouth than doing her job. To be respectful, I decided not to upload the photo of your workers standing around talking to each other instead of doing their jobs.

This was kind of a late night stop, after a day of shopping for boats. We sat at the bar, just looking for a quick bite. The bartender was very friendly and helped us get our orders in before the kitchen closed. Everybody was nice and fresh, very flavorful. Even though we were there at closing time we were not rushed and received great service.

Not the best! Chicken taco soup was extremely salty and cold. Asked to have it reheated and it came back a little bit warmer, but it was not hot! Soup needs to be hot. The meal was cold as well. Refried beans were ice, cold, and wile the tacos tasted very good they also were cold. Everything that I tried to order for a drink they were out of. They didn’t even have ginger ale. It much in the way of top shelf, namebrand liquors. There were only three tables in the restaurant when I walked in at 8:30. So there’s really no reason for the food to be served anything but piping hot. The table server was very kind and accommodating. I used to come to this restaurant every Friday night, but haven’t been here in about seven years. Unfortunately, it just is not the same.

I really enjoyed the chicken soup I got! I will say that my mother got the salad and it did not have the avocado on top which was sad. My brother and dad got the quesadillas and they said it was okay. I liked the chips in the beginning, and the margarita flight and sangria was great-I enjoyed!
