Service here is great! Food- not so much. Prices are a lot for what you get. Had the rice bowl with shrimp for $32 which had 4 shrimp and a few little side but basically it was a bowl of rice. It sure how they can charge that for a rice bowl! My friend had a salad and added a piece of salmon- it was $50. Will not be going back

We always love coming back to Chef Luis. Our favorites on their regular menu are always fresh and delicious and the specials are too. We were surprised and delighted to see the newly decorated interior. Love all the blue trim and new artwork. Service was attentive and friendly.

Everything was so fresh. And there were so many choices if you wanted to eat lightly. I could have had an entree or a single taco. I particularly like the salads here. Interesting and crispy.
