    No one came to our table in the first 30 mins of being sat down. So we left and ate at a better restaurant.

    Will not go back. If you order drinks they want to take a copy of your Id. It wasn’t just a check for age, my wife and I are in our 50’s and clearly not under age. Food was good but the appetizer we ordered came after our meal so we sent it back and had it removed from our bill. It wasn’t busy so would have expected better service.

    Our ID policy for ordering alcoholic beverages is stated on our menu and website. We do not take a copy of ID's but they are scanned for validity.

    Went before a concert at the TD Garden. Everything was mediocre at best. Service was very kind, but overwhelmed and forgot a number of things. I don’t blame them, as it was chaotic. Food was fine. Overall, served its purpose but nothing to write home about

    The food and drinks were excellent. We specifically enjoyed the mango margarita and nachos. We easily switched from a shorter table that seemed more suited for lounging, to a taller dining table with the help of the very accommodating staff. A very reasonable gratuity was included in our bill, making for an easy checkout with the waitstaff. The lighting was pretty dim inside, so be prepared with a phone flashlight and/or reading glasses to read the menus.

    The food was good except for the street corn too much sauce. Definitely did not drink the tap water they tried to serve. The seat were dirty and the table was sticky. They had a good crowd idk if I’ll go back though
