| - In all fairness to the SS people, I was on the fence between a 2 and a 3 star rating. Went with the 2 because it doesn't sound like we are the only people with a bad experience.
After a super fun experience getting our NOH8 photos taken at the theatre down the street we were hungry. The Salty Senorita was close so we walked over. Got seated right away. The Hostess came back and gave us water and took our drink order and we ordered tableside Guacamole at the same time.
The tableside Guac came and it was the Hostess preparing it. I'm not sure if she only did the tableside prep or also pulled the ingredients in the kitchen, but the Guacamole was the worst I'd ever had - the amount of salt in it was enough to have killed a sidewalk of snails. The waitress came to the table and we told her and she offered to go make a fresh one. That came out and it was perfect.
I can't remember exactly when we ordered our lunch tacos, but we got there about 1:15, at 2:10'ish the manager came to apologize and said that he was going to take care of us.
Finally our tacos came out. Mine were room temperature, I swear a couple of pieces of steak were almost cold, even (but that may have been me hungry and pissed off). They were sitting on the counter waiting to be delivered for so long that the tortilla shells were sticking to the metal serving tray-we had to use a fork to pry them off.
Honestly, I really think that they would have been good had they been warm.
The waitress came back quite a few times to check on us and apologize. She was great about filling our sodas for us. The manager took care of our bill, all of it (which is why I was on the fence about putting down a 3 for my rating). The waitress also gave us two free appetizers, "in case you will come back". She didn't really phrase it the best way, but I can't blame here.
Seating - we didn't go inside, so I don't know anything about the interior. We sat outside because it was a beautiful day. The umbrellas in the tables were not secured. There were a few wind gusts that caused us to grab at our umbrellas. In looking around, everyone felt the need to grab at their umbrellas. There was one table that the umbrella completely blew up and out - quick reaction from the diners kept it from hitting any of the neighboring diners. This seems like another quirk they probably should work out.
Will we go back? I'm sure we will. The food really seemed like it was going to be good - the ingredients all looked like they were there.
