   The brunch can be hit or miss, with some things being outstanding and others ready for the trash after one bite. It's still a very well thought out and nuanced brunch and a pretty good value on Sundays. Beware that holidays can be chaotic - extra tables added in places they normally wouldn't be, stressed staff, added temporary staff with no training, and a loud noise level. All that said, I still recommend it!

   I just love coming here. Luis, my server knows exactly how I like my drinks! He keeps me topped off. So glad I decided to pop in last minute for a bite. Their items are very tasty and the drinks are better

   The food was tasty but overpriced. Our servers were mostly attentive. The place seemed pretty empty and so no reason for the service to be slow. Used to be an old standby but this place does need a make over. Seems dingy and in need of a good steam cleaning. They had started the setup for the brunch in the morning and that looks like it’s probably a good value. It’s huge and we would come back for that in the future. The shrimp and steak fajitas were very tasty, but the serving size was a bit skimpy. They did replenish the chips and salsa and we did think the salsa was delicious. The manager did come around and check in and our servers were good. The place just needs to be freshened up.
