Jamie I met the owner at Safeway earlier this year and she suggested we try her restaurant. We have been 4 or 5 times since then. Every time we visit we are greeted with a smile from everyone and there is never a problem if you ask for something extra. We brought our daughter and our grandsons yesterday. ( Teens) The oldest is beyond picky. He ordered the fajitas, both my daughter were shocked, he ate every bit of it. They loved Diegos and want to come back next time they visit. You have the right combination. Friendly Staff, great food and the Atmosphere is delightful.

M H Best sit down Mexican food I’ve had in awhile. Love how festive it was for Christmas and the service is very good. It is more American style with lots of cheese and unseasoned chicken in the enchiladas but tasty for sure. Love that they actually make their sauces would eat the poblano chicken enchiladas again.

Tammy Cameron We found our new go too for a quaint, unique dinning. I love the outdoor space and appreciated the entertainment and the fact that you could still have a conversation without yelling over the top of the music. The food and menu were right on par. I LOVE Italian food but appreciated that they also had steak and some other options. The entire place smelled amazing with garlic and cheese, every plate that I saw come out was beautiful and portions were not lacking. The waitress was polite and attentive as well as the other staff we encountered. I love that they allow dogs on the patio and that they also have a full bar. The only disappointment was that I made a reservation the Thursday before for 6:30pm on the patio for Saturday and when we arrived, it was a good thing I had an email confirmation because whomever took the call apparently never wrote it in the book, so my only suggestion is to make sure you get your email confirmation before you go. We will be going back FOR SURE and can’t wait.

Leal Wendy Nice and casual cabin style interior restaurant that we frequently visit when coming back from camping. The portions are generous and the food is good! The staff is always friendly as well.
