   The food was excellent. Service was pretty back but I’m guessing it’s because the girl was new and has never been a waitress. Hopefully she improves. I’ll be going back because of the delicious food.

   This was our first time at this new restaurant in Ontario. The ambiance and decor was pretty cool. The food was really good so kudos to the Chef. Our waiter was personable and friendly. The negatives; upon entering the hostess table, the host was leaning on the rostrum on her phone. Not a good look. She was friendly and accommodating once I engaged with her. Then there was a 3.5% charge to our bill. I was just curious so asked the waiter what the charge is. He stated it was a menu charge. Huh? Upon digging they add this charge because the menu prices just went up so instead of changing their menu, they add this charge. Didn’t you guys just open your doors? So, a price increase after 6 weeks? Okay. This sounds not only sketchy but borderline illegal. Then the bar manager with a very dirty shirt overheard me questioning the waiter so he got involved but his explanation made no sense either. Yup a menu charge lol okaaay. Note: if you visit tables to chat with patrons do ensure your shirt is clean. Yeah, this place is on the do not go list for now, however this place has much potential to be an excellent restaurant. Thank you chef!

   First of all, the service is phenomenal. We went for Easter Sunday Brunch. It wasn't busy when we go there, but it quickly filled up. The Buffet was disappointing to say the least. $55 The Pozole was cold, still had great flavor, but cold pozole? nope. There weren't as many options as we had hoped for. The buffet ran out of food several times and the servers were very apologetic. The buffet did not offer a single vegetable. No salad, no side veggies......so it was basically meat, cinnamon rolls and cold pozole (even the toppings for the pozole ran out). We also ordered a side of mac and cheese and Bone marrow fries. The mac and cheese is delish and should have been part of the buffet. The marrow fries were sweet??? Why???? In my opinion, they should offer salad, at least 1 veggie, mac and cheese, toast, rolls or bisquits (not sweet) at the buffet to make it worth the amount of money charged.

   Waitress was very nice but it took awhile to get service and it would’ve been nice if she checked on us more often

   Enjoyed our food. Food is served family style, it would be helpful to have a bigger service plate. It’s hard to cut up some of the larger items in either the small bread plate or the trays that they serve the food in. The bar menu I think is left over from the Applebees that used to inhabit the building. I think they could do a lot better to match the vibes and the food. My cocktail was overly sweet and I think they only showed the bottle of bourbon to glass and forgot to put any into the drink. Felt the value was commensurate to what we received. Our waitress was very attentive. Overall, we enjoyed the experience, and will visit again.

   I think I would have left a much better review if the service was better. It took a very long time for a server to take our order. When she came to the table she told us that it turns out our server is on break so she will take care of us until then. We ordered 2 sodas, but she only brought one. She rarely checked on us and there was a long span of time in between visits. I was really disappointed overall

   I know you are still working out the kinks. There don't seem to be enough servers, the waiters don't have time to tend to the guests with timely food and drinks and are very apologetic about it. Way too noisy, people have to talk loudly to each other to be heard above them music. We had ribs, brisket, try-tip and the fundido. Ribs were by far the best!! Will probably try it out again once they have more time under their belt. Great ideas with the food though, just need more polish!

   This place was absolutely amazing. The food was so flavorful and delicious. The meat was super tender. Literally no complaints on food. The only downside was the booth seat was pretty far from the table but nonetheless everything was so good and the staff was super nice and attentive.

    Enjoyed the vintage inspired ambiance and moody decor. Service was excellent, and food was delicious. Highly recommended the loaded baked potatoes! Fried Brussels Sprouts were delicious and I really liked the brisket birria tacos. We each ordered a different mocktail and they were great. Looking forward to going back and trying some other items! I have some food allergies, which the server was not familiar with. He took the time to check in with the kitchen to ensure I was safe to eat certain items. I really appreciate that care and follow through!
