Excellent food and service! I was impressed that when we arrived the hostess opened the door for us and greeted us. The outside/ inside atmosphere was great! Lots of seating. We had Cracker Jack shrimp for our app. And it was delicious! It's a must try for sure! You won't regret it. Our waitress was super sweet and told us her recommendations and we took her opinion and got the shrimp and fish tacos. They were also very good! We ordered 2 of each and it was plenty for two people. They are very big tacos!
