| - We stopped in here for happy hour since it was right in our hotel. I saw the less than stellar reviews, but figured drinks couldn't hurt. We decided to sit at the bar and I'm so glad we did. The bartenders were super friendly and chatted with us the whole time - they're actually the only reason I gave the place an extra star.
The hh margarita (without added flavor) was just ok, the added flavors were better (the watermelon was actually squeezed watermelon, not just flavoring), but still not great. The hh beer came in mini bottles. At the end of the hh, we decided to order a couple apps because we kept seeing food go by and it smelled great. My bf got the wings which were just ok, but came with a cilantro cream sauce we both really loved despite the fact we both typically hate cilantro. I got two tacos, one chicken and one steak. The steak was pretty horrible, but I stole my bf's sauce from his wings and it made it tolerable. The chicken was actually really good and tasted authentic.
While the bartenders were super friendly to us, the service in general for the hh was a little crazy. It seemed there was one dedicated bartender and one dedicated server (until the last hour of the hh maybe), but one guy was more of a floater and didn't really seem to help where needed. I watched pretty much every table that came in sit for a long period of time and sit and talk amongst themselves, shaking their heads in disbelief that they weren't being served. I watched people sit with empty glasses for long periods of time with no refills. I watched people sitting with their checks annoyed because they wanted to leave. Many people came up to the bar to get their own refills and pay their tabs. I feel like they likely lost a lot of sales during the couple hours we were in there because people either didn't get to order often or just got sick of being overlooked and left.
