Not going to complain. Stopped here for happy hour and an appetizer it was excellent. I had the mojito x 2 along with the grilled octopus. It was perfect Update February 4, 2024 I returned the following day, mostly because it was Sunday, many restaurants were closed and didn’t find any with happy hour. I ordered the mixed ceviche which was outstanding. The kitchen is open and very clean and professional. It also boasts a skilled very pretty chef

Stopped here for a late night drink and dessert. We had the pecan pie and met Juan the very friendly bartender who made us his famous Mont Blanc drink- double espresso, heavy cream, rum, and orange (or lime). If you are in need of a yummy drink, would definitely stop by and ask Juan for his Mont Blanc!

We had burgers and they were great. Clean nice atmosphere with a very friendly and courteous bartender. I felt like tge ladies in the kitchen dragged their feet s bit but burger was great.

I was a bit skeptical ordering from here (although the menu lists gluten free) due to the lack of reviews regarding gluten free. I get very sick from cross contamination but the server ensured they used separate and clean kitchen equipment, I ordered the salmon and shrimp entree that came with mashed potatoes and veggies and it was delicious! Very fresh and I did not get sick. Highly recommend!
