    Never have we had a bad experience here. Food is awesome. Service is exceptional. Environment is welcoming. The house chips are EXCELLENT. The new salad bar is amazing. It has fresh ingredients to make the tastiest salads, right down to the REAL bacon pieces. Trust me, you won't go wrong here. Oh, I forgot to mention, they have "Beer colder than my ex."

    Best burger I have had. The bartender actually told me about how he switched meats from the guy down the street to the guy down the street with better seasoning. Awesome

    Deelicious!!! Great food, excellent service, nice atmosphere, and daily specials. Our bread stick appetizers were piping hot with a big bowl of marina. We ordered the enchilada Wednesday daily special for $10 and it was a huge plate with 4 beef enchiladas covered in cheese and salad. Picture below is of one enchilada, didn’t think to take photo until almost finished because we were starving and it hit the spot! The $4 margarita special was a steal, big glass, so tasty! We were driving through, never visited this restaurant before. It was a real treat.
