In Short – Crisp, modern Mexican-style décor goes perfectly with a menu that exceeds the local Tex-Mex standard at this upscale casual spot owned by Cyclone Anaya's son. The usual suspects are present on the oversize menu alongside original items like chicken Lajitas with creamy spinach artichoke, Mexican pizza, old-fashioned burger baskets, wraps and comforting Gulf Coast specialties like chicken fried fajita steak, catfish and shrimp. The full bar churns out expert margaritas while the outdoor patio is a lively and festive. –

Tuesday Fajita Special
by ladygold
I had a "gift certificate" from in hand when we went last Tuesday, but we've saved it until we go back - which we more assuredly will - because the fajitas were on sale. Good margaritas, nice and tasty wine with generous pours, yummy tortillas and very nicely done fajitas. Service was prompt and pleasant.
- Pros: Half price fajitas
- Cons: none

Food is Excellent, Service Not So Much
by lucysmom129
The food here is amazing.
The service is a different story. The majority of the waitstaff is very rude. There is one red headed waiter who I've had several times at both lunch and dinner who is the worst waiter I've ever had ANYWHERE. He has a major attitude problem, rolls his eyes, and asks put off that you expect him to do his job and take your order!
The chip/bus boys are more helpful and friendly in refilling your drinks and chips/salsa than the actual waiters! Too bad they don't get the tips!
