Most of it was good. They left out the whole fajita set for my wife's meal, so no tortillas, no cheese, no sour cream, no guac, no tomatoes. The steak meat in her fajita was pretty low quality, too. So her experience was horrible. And personally I would put lettuce & tomato on the side on any kids meal, especially a taco. Kids don't like that stuff, so to get them to eat it, I have to pick it off.

We were at the bar waiting to be served. After about 10 minutes of waiting we had to flag down the bartender. The service is not good. I also had a take out salad which was supposed to be Romain but it was iceburg. The avocado was not fresh. I guess when you take out you cannot send it back.

This was our first, but certainly not the last time we will visit. The food was great and the service was even better. Lauren and Sienna were terrific. I also enjoyed meeting my new friend Sonny from Armenia. Can't wait to see you again.

It’s strange it’s connected to a grocery store. Too bad there aren’t two different entrances. It’d be interesting to know how many people come in and leave because of that. The food was excellent. The service was excellent. Everything was fresh and seemed clean. It should be it’s own place, but I do recognize the genius of the owner in how he/she did it. Again—excellent fresh food with nice portions. I do recommend this restaurant and will go back.
