Our servers were great. The food was excellent. We drove from Reno for a show at the Tavern and had a great night. Be sure to check out the ribs and the noodles. Also the chocolate store across the street!! Oh, and the house music was great too. Cuban and salsa ala Buean Vista Social Club. Way to go.
