“Food was delicious! I highly recommend to take the family. The staff was super friendly.”
“Amazing food at a very well thought out restaurant lots of options to mix and match, lots of veggie options too. Great selection of hot sauces for the hot palated, service is really good, food is served fast and well cooked. Great tasting food too”
“The service is great and the food is tasty. I looove the margarita-sangria mix drink. Sometimes you just want a stiff drink in a takeout cup and a straw. It’s not as obvious as a cocktail glass. Is it juice? Is it a smoothie? Is she getting sloshed? Who knows? Love this place!”
