    Our waiter was great fast,polite. The food was OK, two of us had the chicken Caesar salad wrap one of us liked it a lot, but wish there was more dressing on it and one of us thought it was OK and wish there was more dressing on it. One of us got the nacho tots they were pretty good, but the amount was really big definitely assuring item. We all got Cajun tots, which were pretty good. Some of them had an excess amount of seasoning, but no big deal. Seems like a good enough place to stop in and grab a bite.

    Who knew nachos were sweet? Service here was excellent. The beer very good. But we ordered the BBQ pork nachos and the pork was drenched in overly sweet barbecue sauce. Very off putting. In my experience nachos are a savory and spicy dish. I never even thought that they could be ruined like this. Really just one of the worst things I’ve ever had. We tried to work around the pork but it had imbued the sweetness throughout.
