On 4/25/2026 Dawn H. had this to say:
5/5 If I could give this place 1000 stars I would. By far worth the drive from Cedar Rapids to get here and our server was so much fun and very informative on any questions we had and made sure to make us comfortable and informed on our decisions. The food was beyond our expectations and very flavorful with great portions. We sat outside on the patio and it was very lively and had a bunch of things to do. We will be coming back!

On 4/24/2026 Dom Mascardo had this to say:
Wonderful service staff - ask them for their recommendations & you won't be disappointed. Fish tacos & barria quesadilla were excellent. Plenty of tequila in our jumbo margaritas during happy hour (should have opted for the small). Will hopefully be our après bike ride destination during the warmer months for appetizer & drinks.
