| - They are still new and can tell working out some 'issues' nothing earth shattering. There was a confusion with our reservation - but they acknowledged it, fixed it and gave us a free appetizer. It really was not a big deal, and their approach made it a bonus.
Okay - what did we order (we went twice during our stay in AZ so I'll cover both trips).
- Green Chili Mac and Cheese - Super tasty, great flavor and love the
combo.
- Smoked Steak Chili - Tender steak, flavorful with just a little kick.
- Green Chili Stacked Enchilada - Wasn't a favorite, good flavor, just not
great presentation.
- 7 Layer Salad - wonderful mix of flavors and textures
- Chips and Trio of Salsa - Love the pico de gallo salsa, the green salsa
a bit runny and lacking flavor, smoky tomato salsa is excellent.
- Steak Torta Sandwich - Fries were crisp and hot, Sandwich was
flavorful and a bit of kick. Extremely filling.
- Fresh tortillas with Agave Honey Butter - Butter rocks! Tortilla was a bit
too overcooked on the edges and dry, nice flavor.
- Kids Nachos with steak. A good deal for a child - not enough meat in
my sons words "Where is the meat?!?"
- Kids Burrito. Huge - and you can pick what you want on the inside.
- Taco Trio - Lobster, Chicken and Steak (1 of each). Tons of meat and
really good flavor. A very filling meal. You can mix and match on those
too.
- Chocolate Molten Cake - very rich and dense with a generous scoop
of vanilla bean ice cream. Delicious
- Homemade Churro Donut Holes - Served in a bag (included with a
kids meal) and available for adults too. Hot, steamy and oh so
delicious. Two sauces to dip in - strawberry and chocolate. Yum!!
As I said, there are some issues to work through. The turn around on entrees is pretty slow - but worth the wait. I'll easily wait for food that is fresh, hot and delicious as opposed to reheated elements of Sysco. Just know going in that this is not a fast quick meal, if you are in a rush you'll just be frustrated and no matter how good it is you still won't like it.
Prices - I felt they were appropriate. The food was worthy of the price and I didn't feel like my cost to quality ratio was off. As I said, we went back again while visiting and when we return we will go back. Good food, good prices and I have a feeling the turnaround time will improve.
Oh, on more thing - I am so impressed that they have hired young people to bus the tables. We had a 15 yr old young man that was polite, attentive and personable. What a great opportunity to learn the ropes and how to be respectful and responsible. Rare opportunity and one to be applauded by the owners!! Kudos to you all around!!
