Everything was just wonderful, as usual. We were shorted five dollars in change while paying, but that's never happened in the 18 years that we've been going there so that's fine. We'll be back soon, great place to eat, see friends, great atmosphere!!!

Gentleman who served us was amazing, and was even friendly about our baby, who's 8 months and learning how to eat. He brought us crackers so she didn't have to struggle to eat the chips, and even talked to her. She loved the crackers and chicken tenders and tortillas! Our food was great and the restaurant was overall very peaceful.

Stopped for lunch with golf friends. We all had a margarita, they were great! Then a combination of different lunches. I think the way they season the ground beef is the best in the area. Everyone was happy with their food, service and price.
