Josh: On the fajitas for two, you can sub the rice or beans for some delicious queso! Their queso is delicious!!!!
Diana Pennycook: Obviously the tortillas & queso are to die for if you've read any of the tips you know this. But get the brisket quesadillas for your entree! One of their best menu items for sure!
Koehl Friesenhahn: Delicious Shrimp Fajitas. All of the fajita plates are good. Great enchiladas and queso. I highly recommend the mango margarita.

Amilee: Incredible selection, excellent service, low key...very enjoyable. Goat cheese & hummus apps are excellent.
Edward Aaron Romero: Sunday morning spinach and feta omelette with lamb sausage is ritual!
Sam W: You can't got wrong with the lamb burger (add cheese and ask for crispy potatoes), the lentil salad, or the ensalada de garbanzo (add pancetta and ask them to crisp it up on the grill for you).

Jeffrey Bryant: Queso Fondido with shredded duck is AMAZING! Wash it down with the Prickly Pear Margarita.
