First time at this restaurant. Went for Thanksgiving and the food was delicious. The cornbread starter was very good. We got the quinoa chili, green chile enchiladas and short rib quesadillas, and all were very satisfying in both taste and portion. Drinks were good, too! And Maleek provided excellent service!

The food is surprisingly good, the flavor is always there even if the sauces are sometimes a little loose. Everything that everyone I know has ordered has been delicious! Definitely some of the best in town! Can’t wait to try the margaritas here!
