Excellent customer service. Our server was fantastic. We sat outside on the patio closest to the TV near the center of a courtyard on the end seating where you could walk up to go Parking. I hope you share this with our server. He was fantastic. The food and drinks were great also.

Met some friends here for a Sunday lunch/brunch. Place was empty, probably because it was during a Nats day game. The food and service were outstanding. A couple of us had the Huevos Rancheros, which was very tasty and delicious. Someone else was very happy with her steak and eggs. Those who ordered taco platters were also very pleased. I would definitely go here again if down by the Navy Yard. They have nice outdoor seating but it was a very hot and muggy day so we ate inside.

Unique flare on their dishes, and the food was pretty darn great, rather than a failure like much of today's so called different twists on the food scene. Our waiter was great, knowledgeable. prompt, coherent, and delivered as well as any wait staff should, for the joint they work at. An all around pleasant and enjoyable establishment. Not being greeted with begging to subsidize employee pay, was also a breath of fresh air. Seems all too many establishments, in the DC area, wanted to test the water with begging, to subsidize pay, because of their local out of control taxes. Thankfully, a good product stands on it's own, and this was a good product, all around.

Great experience, great food, great service. It would be better if they open the rooftop, but it was a nice experience though.
