I have never eaten at this restaurant, but did have good experience in the one on Voss and Woodway. This restaurant the table guacamole was flat. No taste. I couldn’t taste any alcohol in My house margarita ! The skinny enchiladas were terrible! I could barely see any filling. But the rice was very good. Never going back there.

Out of 4 orders, 2 were wrong - missing items. And we asked for more chips and salsa - never got. The two orders with chicken tacos were awful. The chicken sauce was so salty we couldn't eat it. We have never had this experience with service or food before.

The food was not very good. The meat was very tough and I am not quite sure it was actually beef. The drinks were very expensive.

The food was delicious, and I had a great time celebrating my 21st birthday here. The atmosphere was beautiful, especially being seated by the waterway. Our server, Matthew, was friendly and helpful, which made the experience even better. I would definitely come back!
