    Service was so slow, food was fine. Flavorful. Got the queso, and it was just melted cheese, odd. Better than you expect for casino but mediocre for restaurant.

    Entree specials were tapas sized rather than full entrees. "Jumbo" shrimp were quite small. The scallops dish only came with 3 scallops. Pork chop was their best dish. The live music was great and the ambiance and decor are fitting.

    Service was quite speedy. Language barrier with server. Made ordering a little bit difficult. Fajitas were tasty but portion small. Guacamole was good. Salsa Verde was excellent. The creative cuisine is interesting and presents well. The margaritas were good, but they did not know how to make a white Russian. Several things just fell short of my expectations and I don’t think I will return.

    This was amazing! We had a fantastic dinner that we haven't stopped telling our friends about. We are regular diners at Chop House, but this tremendous gem is just down the hallway. The tapas, tacos, and the amazing Pescado Frito are there. I highly recommend this place. You have to try it if you enjoy a higher level of dining without breaking the bank.
