First off, the ladies who work there (shout out to Lily and Alicia!!) were so friendly and so helpful when they took the time to go over the menu with us. The food here..... omg. Coming from Chicago we have high expectations for food, and this place EXCEEDED them. Caviar on the menu in a small town dive bar? Yes please! Everything we had was just so good... that we had to come back for a second time before we left. I tried to order the bread/cheese/jam plate for a second time, but seemed like everyone else loved it too as they were out! The burgers, the oysters, the steak, even the french toast...were also outstanding. From the outside it looks like you're going to walk into a real simple, small town dive bar. But inside has SO much more to be explored. Highly recommend anyone that's in the area to stop in here, you will not regret it.

Leap into the Yelp-scape for something close but not a chain. Boom CortiLeno's pops up. 10" Pie for $12? We are all in. Walked in about 6pm Monday night quiet. Great bartender took order of one extra pepperoni sans cheese and one traditional pepperoni and cheese. "I'll be back in 20. Should I pay before I leave? No thats fine." Back 20 mins later a bit more crowded and pizzas ready to go. Ambience of space is not my vibe because I dislike the electronic gaming. Thats a me thing On way out chef/owner/dude.."I killed that one pizza with pepperoni." He did indeed. Happiness all around. Great sauce, amazing crust (soft so if you want crispy give them an alert) perfect amount of cheese and toppings. Great job!

I was pleasantly surprised when it came out on a sizzling platter like a fajita. The steak was nice sized and grilled although it looked like a slightly different cut and not as pounded as some carne asadas. There was a nice selection of grilled veg, some rice and beans, some guacamole and lettuce and tortillas. The place was nice, service was efficient and food was good.

The waitress had to ask for my order 3 times. When the food came, I found my lunch combo of a taco and enchilada disappointing. It was rather plain and I think the beef used was subpar. For me, my rice and the free chips and salsa. My wife's nachos looked rather sad, with just some queso and ground beef slathered over a plate of chips. I saw what looked like a rather impressive looking burrito delivered to another table, so maybe we ordered wrong, but on both items we ordered, they needed to try harder. I'd give them a chance again, but I wasn't impressed.
