    Not really happy with the food. Wanted steak and shrimp fajita instead of chicken and shrimp and they would not accommodate.

    Service began on a positive note. Waitress came by quickly for drink order. When she returned we were not ready to order. So she disappeared into the kitchen for 15 + minutes. I had to ask another member of the waitstaff to please ask her to take our order. The table next to us was looking for her too!! Further, several times when she passed our table we tried to get her attention, but she clearly had other things on her mind. This made the dining experience annoying. Food was fine, not outstanding. Polo relleno was good. Red salsa served with chips was ketchupy. And it was expensive. It was the 20% off coupon that enticed me to go. Also, parking was a real pain.
