    Took my family of 5 out for an excellent lunch at Guacamole, complete with fun and tasty mocktails, and queso appetizer. Each entree was beautifully presented, tasted great and portions were large enough for a few Togo containers. Great service, we will be back!

    Great food. It was hot. It was well timed. It was delicious. Short ribs and shrimp with pasta. Great selections. Food and wine. Attentive employees. Sincerely friendly. Is there anything you can do about the acoustics? Very difficult to converse without really yelling. If I owned the facility, I would seek professional help with sound dampening.
