Waitress was very rude- she didn’t want to take my order and constantly rolled her eyes every-time I asked for something. She had a tie dye shirt on. I asked to simply place my order when I got there and she rolled her eyes and said “it will be a minute we’re busy” literally barely anyone there and the way she said it was so disgusting. I asked for one refill after an hour of being there. A glass of lemonade and she said “it will be a minute” and runs to another table and starts chatting with another table. Didn’t get one refill from
her the whole hour. I had to go to the bar myself to get the refill. Then she lied about the wait time on my friend’s order. She said the order would take 30-45 minutes so not to order it. Ended up ordering anyways and it come out in 15 minutes. I normally tip a lot but unfortunately only got $1.80 from me and .50 from my friend. Worst service I’ve ever received. No “do you need anything ? Does the food taste good? Do you need a refill?” Judging a book by its cover it seems like but she’d be surprised. I guess 4 African American Law students still can’t get a little respect at a restaurant. Saw her busting tables getting refills for the old white men though! All good, just won’t be back there

Went here before a Red's game. It wasn't crowded at all and service was terrible. It took forever to get anything to the table and we never got silverware or napkins. Would never go back.
Food was good. No pics since I didn't plan to leave a review but with service that bad I had to.

We stopped in before a red game and had a patio table. The crowd passing by was wonderful for people watching. The service to table and time to get food was delayed due to the full restaurant. Food quality was great. Portions were less then most. Server was great but spread thin. Located about two blocks from the stadium it made for a great pre game stop and considerable savings over the poor food choices at the ballpark. Perhaps add $1 to menu items and increase portions would make for a better experience. Overall a good meal, a great location, and nice night out.
Great spot located in a busy area with friendly staff, fast service, pretty cool interior and nice food! The corn 🌽 was amazing! delicious and spicy 🌶️ but just perfect 👍 Nacho’s were nice too! we took grilled veggies just to give it a try and next time will try something different! Overall a great spot!
Great location right next to a beautiful bridge. Nachos are good. Also tried the salsa, queso and guacamole, which are tasty. The street corn is great, a bit spicy just be warned. Atmosphere is very chill and the restaurant does have outside seating.
Great atmosphere and food. I didn't love the chicken and rice bowl I ordered. The trio dip sampler was good. The quesadilla was ok.
I would go again and try something different.

The atmosphere was nice, and casual.The service was really good. The Margaritas are great(Top Shelf)!! I had a Chorizio Taco and the wings. The wings were good, but the Jameson Honey Sauce is kinda weak. The dry rubs are also really good on the wings. The Churros are donut shaped and pretty big. Goes really well with the chocolate dipping sauce.
Great Tex-Mex restaurant and bar. Good selection of beers on tap (including local craft brews). Taco Tuesdays is always a good deal.
They have table service including for outdoor dining. Inside there are booths for larger groups. They usually have a DJ on weekends and also a few TVs to watch sports (or music videos).
