A little bit pricey for lunch. I have never been her and we were taken here by friends. Service was great, but food lacked flavor.

Found by Yelp, and being a kinda of foodie we order some of the stuff off folks reviews not even knowing what they were. Salsa is little spicy but that fine with me, it was great once food came, now the chips was a little thick for us but don't let that scare you away. The shrimp quesadilla was great big shrimp and flavor, got also cheese dip it was good has a little different kick to it then the plain Jane dip, also ordered seafood soup, now it was really good, kinda remind ya of a Mexican style gumbo . Got a combo 17 nothing great or bad about it, just basic beef items, the waitress asked if we wanted to get dessert never had a Mexican restaurant ask about it so we ordered waitress said their flan is very good so that what we ordered. It was good. Will return next time I am in town. Staff was super nice.
