Overall
Pretty lunch spot, Not-so-great food

The patio area is a great place for a drink after work, but the food is lacking. I've been there 3 times and everytime they are out of whatever I choose to order, whether it is food or drink. The wait staff is great and always has other recommendations, but please take it off the menu if you aren't going to keep it in stock. On one visit, the burger was way under cooked, but was quickly remedied when pointed out. The apple pie was soggy and cold and tasted like it had been in the fridge too long. On the next visit, the fish tacos were OK, the right temp, but were blackened instead of the usual "mexican" style of fried or grilled. The black beans were great, but the rice was sticky, mushy and tasteless. Like I said, nice spot for a drink, but skip the food. Really cute Bull Dog that hangs out on the patio and mooches bellyrubs though!
