The food was mediocre. The service was poor. We arrived on a Friday evening at 6pm, a busy time but there were empty tables and we didn't have to wait. We ordered drinks. My husband drinks NA beer and they were out of St. Pauli Girl so he settled for O'Doul's (a poor substitute). Is that any way to start a weekend, being out of decent beer? My Kiltlifter came with no problem. We ordered a salad, appetizer tacos to share, and sweet potato fries to share, all to be served at the same time. They brought my salad before anything else so I sat there and ate my salad while my husband waited for his food. They delivered the tacos and sweet potato fries (w/o the dipping sauce listed on the menu). The tacos were pretty good, I would order them again. No one came back to the table to see how we were doing until we were done eating so we never did get our dipping sauce for the sweet potatoes (and they were a bit bland and could have used some sauce). When the waitress did rush by the table to see how things were I had to ask her if I could have another drink. I'm just a tourist passing through so they are not losing a big customer but NO, I would not go back there, nor would I recommend it to anyone else. When you first walk up to the place you will think, omg, this place is so cute! What ambience! No, it's all show. The food is ok, the service is not ok.
