I read the reviews prior to my visit to this restaurant. And the reviews were ALL very accurate from the time you walk in beginning with the atmosphere, the friendliness of the staff I came in contact with, our server Melanie was VERY welcoming, personable and her suggestions were perfect!! Now let’s talk about the Margarita’s!! I LOVE better than Good Margarita and because of my acid reflux I can’t tolerate the common sweet/sour mix well at all. I mentioned this to Melanie and she suggested that I try the Skinny with my choice of Tequila because it is made to order, it was better than GOOD I loved it!!! The salsa as well as the food were greattt, hubby ordered hamburger and fries which also came with 2 tacos Everything was Wonderful!!! Will definitely be returning, try it!!!!

Stopped in because it was one of the only open restaurants in Mt Adams on a Monday night and it didn't disappoint. The margarita was great, the fries nice and crispy, and the burgers cooked perfectly. Service was good and overall was a great experience.
