Best Margaritas and Steaks in town, bar none. Try the Tuscan Veal chop. It is delicious.

I should have taken a photo of the seasonal item, dungeness crab quesadilla, I ordered, but I dug right in. It was delicious ? Tortilla chips were fresh as were the housemade salsas. Full salsa bar with fixin's and crema. Friendly service and atmosphere. The house Margarita completed the meal. Highly recommend this local favorite ??

Seems to be family-run. I liked this place a lot. I sat at the bar and grabbed beer and food while waiting for my coworkers to show up. It was a Thursday night, but not too busy. Ceviche, tacos and nachos were all great. Will definitely go again.

Great family-owned and run business. They have the best quesadillas! Steaks are also great. It's a regular stop for us.

This place is great! The atmosphere is chill and clean, while also being classy. The service was great and it is a family owned business. The mom made some amazing margaritas and the dad made our food! It was all fresh and tasty. I got the Sea-bass with a side of baked potato, which itself was a great dish. Definitely worth returning for. The son Kai and daughter Keyoni were very hard working and friendly.

Most amazing margaritas in town. Food is so yummy and outstanding. Omg I am OCD and this family owned cozy place is extremely clean. I was happy to know this place and owner. I myself have a family owned business so it was wonderful seeing the teamwork and service from the mom, dad, keani, and Kai.

I come up every 3 months for work and stay a mile from here. After a long drive and work that day, I always enjoy and look forward to coming here to relax with great food, drinks and service. They always have sports on TV too. The burrito is my go to. Everything they make is fresh and the salsa is awesome!!!!! The prices are great too. The best thing about this place is the atmosphere where everyone is greeted by name as they come in. They are regulars and keep coming back. The business is ran by a family with their Wendy and her son, Kai, running the bar. Really enjoy talking to them when I come up and they even remember, even though I'm hardly a regular at 1 visit a quarter. This place is the overall best kept secret in San Carlos. Easy parking too! Highly recommend. You wont be disappointed.

Brought a large group of work colleagues here on a Tuesday night and the sole bartender rocked! He kept up with all our orders and made fantastic cocktails.

I'm in town for work and like to try local places rather than chains - This place is a gem!I enjoyed it so much I had dinner 2 nights in a row. Great service and food, and the owners are awesome!

Just leaving this place...had their 10oz filet mingeon. So amazingly great I had to immediately yelp about it. The menu is a mix of Mexican, sushi, and burgers so I thought "no way the steak could be amazing", however, my boyfriend who knows I'm a carnivore, said they are know for their steak...but I wasn't that hungry. I took one bite and couldn't stop!!! It didn't need any steak sauce, no extra salt or pepper, I didn't even want to stop to take a drink of my great MaiThai! Y'all if you love you some excellent steak, like great quality, best cooked, make you eAt it all even when you aren't remotely hungry and even embarrass yourself as a Pettit girl wanting to lick the plate...go here! Seriously!
