The food is okay, but not great. I ordered the Papa Rio which has a picture of steak and shrimp next to it with with a price of $10.99. Check the picture, I took. When the check arrived there was something for $19.99 listed. When I checked menu there wasn’t one thing listed at 19.99. So I asked the waitress (who was very nice – braces and a big smile) what the charge was for she made a face of embarrassment and said, “the steak and shrimp, it’s a different price now.” I said well you never mentioned the change. She said do you want to speak to the manager and I said yes. I asked the male manager how he could charge me $19.99 when the Papa Rio is $10.99. He said what I got was the steak and shrimp on another page. When I told him I point at the picture next to the Papa Rio he said that the pictures are at random and are not always associated with what is next to them. I asked him to show me what I was given. He points to Steak and Shrimp on another page, with a price tag of $17.99. I said okay well you still charged me more that that. At no point did he say apologize or attempt to give me the $2 price difference. Instead he said “was the food good? Bc that is what matters,” when I asked again about the difference in price he said things are expensive. I would not recommend this place to a soul. If you check out my profile I have hundreds of reviews around the world. Over 25 million views on my food images. He was single handedly the worst manager I have ever experienced on my foodie journey around this world. What he did is illegal. I suggest you verify prices before ordering their salty food or better yet don’t bother visiting his establishment.

We had a really nice little dinner date here! For someone reason they had most choice playlist blasting, we had to use shazam a couple times lol. The food was great and reasonably priced. The service was good too. The waitress was not weirded out by me roasting my partner for ordering a burger. Nor by him asking for extra salsa. Theres a really pretty cliff that goes alongside the road here and this restaurant is nestled right in there. Definitely worth stopping by if you’re in the area.

Very kind wait staff even though we arrived a half hour before closing. No rush and very attentive. Worth a visit.

Menu prices still 30% higher months later than whats on the menu. Worst experience from combative owners when I mentioned they need to update their menu prices after receiving the bill. Most customers won’t say anything, they just won’t return. Was trying to make them understand that it shows incompetence and they don’t care. Again, both owners took it extremely personal when I was just trying to make them understand but to no avail. I’ll go elsewhere from now on and I advise others to do the same as there is MUCH better chips, salsa, and food elsewhere too.

Food was amazing. Staff not so much. Seemed like we were bothering our server by being there. But I’d go back again. The pork burritos were great

Always nice quality time with family when I come here. Seems that they’re cutting some corners lately. Napkins are thin and cheap like. The fajitas come with only 2 tortillas now instead of 3 and not even warm and in foil like used to. The service is still good though.
