Food: Memorable, albeit expensive
The Carne Asada is undeniably top tier, melting tenderly in your mouth with a seasoning that has no earthly right to be this good. Don't sleep on their Ribeye either, with cuts so well-marbled you could mistake them for fine art. However, the Ground Chicken also wins praise for the perfection in trimming. Though the experience is not always positive with the taste of the ground beef being infamously bad and while the freshness and local sourcing are widely lauded, the price versus quality spectrum has had some customers questioning the value.
Great Quality
High-quality, fresh meats and seafood, local sourcing mentioned positively.
Okay Taste
Consistently top notch meats, service; mixed feelings about Groupon use.
Bad Value
Some find it quite expensive relative to perceived quality offered.
