Awesome!!!!

Came to eat here for the 1st time tonight and it was Awesome!!!! I will most definitely make the drive again...soon. Yes, it was that good to me. Reese (our waiter) was pretty cool. I liked that he came by, but just poked his head to make sure we had what we needed when we needed it. He has my vote!! -- Isabel Chavez-Sanchez
