Yesterday, my husband and I went to eat here for lunch and our food was super delicious. We had Alan as our waiter and he was very friendly and polite. He took our order and the food came out in no time, and even after the food had been served he was very attentive. We highly recommend this place.

The inside of the restaurant is beautiful, with gorgeous flooring and a nice relaxed atmosphere. The food was delicious as well The real reason for my 5-star review though was our server, Lydia. She was funny, attentive, outgoing, and made my girl and I feel right at home. Her recommendations were spot on and she made the whole experience wonderful. I hope the next time we're there we receive her again.

Allan was an excellent server .99 cent beef crunchy tacos were piping hot, flavorful, and crispy, I ate every crumb of all 5 tacos. The Mango Sunrise was refreshing and potent. Food came out fast. Highly recommend.

We ate lunch here again today. Delicious! Tyler was our server and he was a delight. He's an excellent server and a very nice young man. We'll be back! The food is always tasty, and the service is always quick and friendly. Kylie did a great job for us tonight, will definitely return and ask for her.

Great food nice portions and seemed clean for a Friday night rush. Had lots to choose from vegetarian to vegan dishes and the Philly steak burrito was amazing. Our server Alan was great from suggestions to attentive service, knew what and when we needed things. Alan made the visit evenore enjoyable. We will definitely be going back in the future.
