    Really well seasoned tacos meat. Even the chips had flavor to it. Will stop every time on the way to the park.

    Best Taco Truck in the Valley. We come here weekly. Carne asada is the best I've had.

Starting with the server her name is Brooke she was on par and one of the best servers that I have encountered for a long time. Hospitable and polite got the order right. We celebrated our dogs 3rd birthday here and we will be back again. Beautiful view of the river and food was amazing got the cod n fries and grilled chicken with bacon sandwich. The food was flavorful and tasty. Excellent service provided. Rockin Raffi gives this 2 thumbs up Brook thank you for making this a memorable experience for us and Shugar

Not sure if it was a one time thing or a season thing but I do NOT recommend outside sitting after sundown. My wife and I got SWARMED by these little green bugs ( obviously from the River ) the server didn't care too much about how bothering it was to have 10+ bugs on our food. Eventually we had to be asked to be moved in and thankfully we were. Funny part is that shortly after us, about 7-8 other tables from outside also moved in because of the bugs hahaha. Not a bad enough experience to hate the place IMO but should be taken better care of. Maybe a net around the dinning area could solve the issue idk

With the reviews on Yelp and the recommendation of our Air bnb host, this was a "must" during our visit. Nice decor and ambiance upon entering. Had a musician playing clarinet, which was beautiful. Unfortunately, we did not even eat here. As I stated, we had been at an outdoor convention- we were in nice jeans and ballcaps. This restaurant was not "suit" fancy, but we may have appeared underdressed with our ballcaps. Honestly we don't make a habit of dressing down and are usually overdressed lol. We felt judged the moment we walked in. They asked if we had a reservation. We did not but we were still sat. There was a wine tasting going on and we were asked if we would like to participate. We politely declined. The vineyard owner came over and talked to us. I politely declined again. The waitress never returned for over 10min. We hadn't even been asked about any other drinks, appetizers, specials of the house, nothing. The menu had some amazing dishes and appetizers that I am sad I wasn't able to try, but if you're going to make me feel less because I didn't have an opportunity to brush out my ponytail and change my shoes, then you're not deserving of the money we were planning on spending in your establishment. These Texas ranchers were very unimpressed

It's been 1 year and 3 months since I last ate here. I thought I'd give them a second chance but nope, same scam. Now I have to dig through my trash to find the receipt so I can go pay them a visit. Last time this happened, I think it was March 2024. The manager or owner whoever it was told me there's a password on the card terminal that only he can access to re-process sales and that he "accidentally hit a button" that caused it. I call BS. My gut says: never come back here. Once I find the receipt, I'll post a photo showing no tip. If the owner tries to show a receipt with a tip added, then they forged it and I'll demand to see the CCTV footage of me signing that receipt. How does this keep happening to me? And how does no one else ever check their bank notifications? Found the receipt here's the photo. Update: 6/24/2025, 1:00 PM I went to speak with the manager or owner. The lady at the register said they haven't seen the owner in weeks. She told me I could take cash on the spot or wait for him. I was like, "Weeks? Yeah, no. I'm not waiting weeks for my $2.18 back." So I took the cash. I didn't need to play the long game with the bank which can take months or sue for $2 (which, ironically, could later cost the owner hundreds of thousands in court and recovery fees... plus the $2). And yes, I'm that petty. If you know your card terminal is doing this, and you didn't even argue when I mentioned being overcharged then why haven't you changed your terminal or processor in the 1 year and 3 months since it last happened? It's as if you're the one doing it. Trying to quietly score an extra couple bucks per customer. Some might say, "It's just $2, let it go." But if they're doing this to every customer, all day, every day? That adds up. It's like those movies where a bank teller notices one cent going to waste, writes some code to collect the spare change, and ends up making millions. her hands were visibly shaking when handing me the $2 back. she knew. didnt even argue nor deny it. lost my business forever can't keep allowing this to happen, "Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me." yelp wont let me post the receipt but you can see my review on google. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/geougc-cs/AB3l90D63s_eonILt4wyWUPs59rT2WsdgXs8Bpv9KHj9yBplyY44I5YT2ZzPGAEfgx1Qo108qOO0wKlBozVt2_g4SgXh1CcDOyQ_U7bYIwB_O1mXmG0fZOgVLB811yRzGrnYX5CRwO3CxgTdTYXv=s3360-w3360-h1798-rw
