| - I know the reviews are mixed, but we had a great experience - especially the food.
Service was OK - not great at first, but finished well in that food was brought out at a reasonable pace; they checked back; and our check was brought promptly.
My girlfriend and I ordered Don Julio margaritas, but they tasted as though orange soda had been added. Made for a strange cocktail - if the margarita were good I could have given 5 stars.
The high score was due to the food. Chips were run of the mill, but the salsa was very good, tasting fresh, and had the right amount of onion and cilantro. The server was happy to get us some spicier salsa, which was very hot but very well seasoned and excellent. They also give you complimentary pickled jalapenos and carrots that were really great. Very nice touch.
Cheese dip is melted white cheese and seasoned perfectly. For entrees, my friend got a nice salad with guacamole, and the guac was very good in that it was well seasoned. My "devil shrimp," in chile arbol sauce was fantastic, and accompanied by good rice and a small salad with guacamole and sour cream.
Prices were good, and the ambiance was much better than average. All in, I look forward to going back, especially to try another margarita as I expect what we had was an anomaly. Recommend trying the place.
