The food was great. Gluten-free options were excellent. Service was slow it was not that busey. The waitress kept forgetting to bring drinks, etc...

We came in without a reservation on a Sunday, the place had plenty of empty seats. So I was surprised that the host said we could only sit at the bar if we could be done by 7:15 (which was just over an hour from when we arrived). We took the table, all was good. The menu is small but mighty. And as a celiac, boy oh boy did I rejoice when they told me the chips were gluten free. Actually gluten free. No gluten goes into the fryer! The nachos were truly exceptional. My tacos were great, I think the steak taco was my favorite but maybe the pork. My fiance loved his bowl, but it was spicier than expected (not a problem, except that we needed more water at the table 😂). Overall, we had a great time. I have every expectation that we'll be back. I'm excited to get a cocktail next time!
