OUTRAGE! They messed up my dinner companion's meal not once but twice! We both had a beer. Jokingly she asked the manager if he could do scrambled eggs as if who could screw up scrambled eggs? He said yes we can do that. Frustrated she said just bring me eggs. By the time they came, I was done with my meal. She ate eggs with a beer! Gross. The manager had the nerve to want to charge her for the eggs. I said seriously? You messed it up TWICE! At these inflated prices you are offering NOTHING for the horrible experience? Bold faced he said you ate it you have to pay for it! That is the most horrible answer I have ever had a restaurant manager ever answer a horrible experience. He offered nothing! I replied that I was appalled by that and would leave a bad review and never return and would suggest all my friends never go here. I hope this is worth the price of some scrambled eggs! Personally he has no business being a manager of such a restaurant.. They should fire him. Now Chad the waiter also thought it was such an outrage that he said he was so sorry and agreed to pay for it himself. Now he's a class act! Give him a raise!

I love the atmosphere. It felt very nice and cozy. The staff was warm and inviting upon arrival, even though I did not have a reservation. The food was delicious! I got the enchiladas, per my server’s recommendation. Everything was prompt and appetizing. I will definitely be returning.

Great place to go if you want to be intimidated and accused of doing something wrong when you haven't. I went there for lunch. While I was there I tried to take some photos of the inside of the establishment because I thought it looked cool, could make for nice reference in some of my artwork (I'm an illustrator) and because I didn't see any photos of that area of the restaurant on Google and thought I might contribute one. Unfortunately, the pictures didn't turn out well, the strong light coming through the windows and possibly a smudge over my phone lens, made for blurry photos with a large glare. So I deleted them right after I had taken them. After my meal, a manager asked to see the photos I had taken. He didn't ask nicely, he was coming off quite aggressive about it. Like I had done something wrong. Now, I am not good under pressure, in social situations, and especially when being unexpectedly confronted about something I didn't think was prohibited. I hadn't taken any photos of the food, and the shock of being confronted like this as I was getting ready to leave, when I hadn't felt I did anything wrong, had me confused. So I denied having taken photos. He explained that several waiters saw me taking photos and then I realized this was regards to the photos I had taken and deleted earlier. He repeatedly asked me to show him the photos. I asked if I had done anything wrong and if taking photos was prohibited, and he said no. He also asked why I was so nervous if I hadn't done anything wrong. Being confronted in an aggressive manor combined with my social anxiety, means that I get overwhelmed easily and yeah, it shows up as being nervous and unable to organize my thoughts properly. That means wasn't able to explain myself very well. Since I had deleted the photos after I took them I couldn't even show him that they were harmless pictures of the tables, decor, and style of the restaurant. He was adamant that he needed to look through the photos on my phone, and I showed him because I had nothing to hide, then he asked for my license and took a photo of it. He said I could take all the photos I wanted and left me there, stunned. If I there is no issues with taking photos there, what was any of this even about? I wish I wasn't so confused, shocked, even embarrassed/humiliated that I could've stood up for myself better. This would have been a good review, but I can't honestly recommend it to anybody after that experience. Now all I can do is write this review sharing what had happened and sit here feeling as if I had been violated in some way. F these guys!
