Most Disliked
While many rave about the food, a few diners note that during peak hours, the wait times can stretch longer than expected. The ambiance, although generally friendly, can get a bit bustling when the restaurant fills up, impacting the overall dining experience. A couple of reviewers mentioned that certain menu items ran out during busy periods, which can be disappointing for patrons with specific cravings. Parking, although available, can become crowded during peak times, leading to minor inconveniences. Overall, while the experience is overwhelmingly positive, these small issues can arise during busy service times.

What a great experience at the new management, newly opened restaurant. The portions were generous and the owners and staff friendly and attentive. The tacos al pastor were some of the best I’ve had - very flavorful and tender… and their home made tortillas! wow, the best. I am looking forward to returning again to try more things - it all looked delicious!
