Great spot for casual dinner or special meal. The menu is varied without rambling and the specials are always worth a look. Really good salads and nice array of apps. They still serve bread upon request and the bar is well stocked. The waitstaff is attentive and informed but don’t loom or push. It’s just a reliable place for a good evening out.

Our server was fantastic and very attentive. The food was delicious. We got the birria empanadas, the poached pear salad, the pat lafrieda burger, the duck parts, and a dirt cake on the house for our anniversary. Everything was cooked and prepared to perfection!
