We went for taco Tuesday and had the very best tacos and smoky margaritas. The shrimp and grilled cheese taco was award winning and we got to try it. Service was exceptional. We paid with a credit card which was easy. The restaurant is behind the roadrunner cafe off the hwy and they serve til 9. They are closed Wed.

What a wonderful experience for the family and I! Food, service, and atmosphere were exceptional! The clams in white wine are savory! The Tuna tostada is a party in your mouth, folks! Thirsty? ...don't forget to order a frozen Tamarind margarita - you won't be disappointed! Enjoy!

My wife and I sat at the bar. The restaurant was full. Tye bartender was pretty overwhelmed with the amount of drink orders. It wasn't fast service but it was good service. A bit of patience and everything was great. When the dining room started to empty out, the bartender had more time on his hands to pay attention to the 4 people at the bar. All was good. The food was great. I had the grilled fish over rice with veggies. Wife had the chicken cordon blue. The meals were great... O... I forgot.. we started with the grill, Octopus.
