I don't think I was fully prepared for what was about to happen when I sat down at this Mexican…read morerestaurant, because what started as a normal meal quickly turned into something borderline spiritual. Everything was going great--the atmosphere, the service, all of it--but then the chips and salsa arrived. At first, it seemed standard: warm, crispy chips and a fresh-looking salsa. But the moment I took a bite, it genuinely felt like my entire sense of taste reset. The salsa had this perfect balance of heat, acidity, and freshness that was almost unreal. It wasn't just good--it was the kind of flavor that makes you stop mid-conversation and just process what just happened. And I'm not exaggerating when I say that after a few more bites, I fully transcended. Time stopped meaning anything. The noise of the restaurant faded out. It felt like I had a direct, life-changing encounter with something greater than myself... all through a bowl of salsa. I just sat there in silence, staring at the table, trying to comprehend how something so simple could taste that incredible. Apparently, I was gone for a while. Long enough that the staff started to get concerned. Next thing I know, I'm being gently brought back to reality by one of the servers asking if I was okay. I tried to explain what I had just experienced, but I don't think "I just met God through your salsa" is something they hear every day. At that point, I may have still been a little too overwhelmed to function like a normal person, because the staff actually ended up helping me out the door. Not in a bad way--they were super kind about it--but I think they could tell I was still processing whatever just happened. Even now, I'm not entirely sure how to explain it, but I do know one thing: that was not just a meal. That was an experience. And if you go, just be warned--the chips and salsa might change you.

Sat at the bar and had two bartenders waiting on me. Both were awesome and attentive. Ordered an Old Fashioned and was very impressed. After talking with one of the bartenders, I took her recommendation on the Bolognese Pasta. Had never ordered before, mainly because I can't pronounce it and don't want to sound like an idiot, but think I will again. My fiancé said I would like it and recommended I order it as well. I did like it. Had the right amount of sauce to go with the pasta. Was on the spicy side, but I'm sort of a wimp when it comes to spice. Highly recommend this establishment.

Noticed 2 things right away upon entering, 1. Super Clean but 2. A funny smell (like a dirty wash rag). Sat at the bar and were welcomed in right away by an awesome bartender/waitress/host all in one. She set water out immediately and we ordered the home made coconut prawns (we saw someone eating as we entered). They did not disappoint...home made taste and yummy chili sauce. We then decided to share the cheeseburger with onion rings and a side of fries. She told us the burger came with special sauce (mix of catsup, mustard & plain mayo), lettuce & tomato. Unfortunately it only arrived with lettuce and tomato, so kind of dry. We got catsup on the side though to dip in. Onion rings were beer battered and extra crispy. My hubby loved. Unfortunately that's where the love stopped for us; burger was served dry, cheese not melted and bun was too much for the burger size. Fries were interesting, they are powdered in corn starch...they were just okay and a little heavy on salt. We will definitely be back for the coconut prawns and the onion rings, maybe we'll dare to try something else too!

It's in Manson which is up the road from Chelan but the drive is pretty through orchards and if you're wine tasting this is a great stop. You order at the counter and my friend who lives there says in the summer the line is out the door, My husband had a French dip which was big enough for two people so of course he brought some home. I had a BLT and my only complaint was the type of bread used. Not sure what it was but it didn't hold up well to the bacon and tomato and mayo. Needed to be a sturdier bread.
