My boyfriend and I had attempted to eat here in the earlier days of the pandemic. We drove pretty far only to find out they decided to only allow take out. We talked about coming on and off and finally visited. It was extremely busy and we didn’t realize a wedding was also going on. We were told it would be an hour wait and since we drove so far we decided to stay. We were sat outside and while it was a bit loud with the wedding festivities, I enjoyed the outdoor section. Quite a while went by and no one had come to our table to ask about drinks etc. I finally followed someone who looked like a possible manager and explained that we don’t have a waiter and that we’ve been waiting a while. Obviously we felt frustrated having already waited an hour just to be seated. Finally our server shows up and tells us that she forgot she was asked to pick our table up and apologized profusely. I appreciated her honesty and was glad to be able to order. Our server then tells us that she’s going to g

Amazing food, and our server was very attentive, kind and went in my opinion, above and beyond with everything she did. The restaurant atmosphere itself was very calming. The lights are dimmed for a very laid back atmosphere. The food was amazing! Just a fair warning for those with a not so high spice tolerance the jalapeño was pretty spicy! ???? but everything else was AMAZING! I’d come here for a date, just to go out with friends or even just a family dinner! Would definitely come here again!! :)

Favorite spot to bring out of town guests. As a family it's a Favorite spot for the relaxed and peaceful ambiance. With friends it's a Favorite spot because there's a large area for the kids to play and if course everyone loves feeding the ducks... and parents love the margaritas. It's one place that I don't mind having to wait a little longer for a table because we could grab a pitcher of margaritas and sit by the pond
