    Bree G.

    I friggen' loved this place. It's been bookmarked for awhile and we finally made it in. It's quaint and cozy inside, with just the right amount of tables and bar space. I am gluten-free and always appreciate a labeled menu for those of us who have sensitivities. Thank you for that. Our waitress and the rest of the staff were extremely attentive and kind. The food tasted homemade and clean, like there were no harmful ingredients hiding anywhere. I enjoyed the green chicken enchiladas and the chile relleno and my family liked their meals as well. My dad and daughter finished up with an order of the churros and they reported that those were very tasty! I look forward to my next visit.

    Enchiladas (gluten free), margaritas, and tacos!

    Consistently good food, staff is very nice & engaging, and the best darn margaritas around! The environment is cozy- it's in a small older building, but they manage it well. I love how they bring the chip basket out with a little pitcher of salsa. We love the poblano enchiladas- our fav dish. They accommodate to gluten free diets, which is a plus. The sizes are plentiful, I'm unable to finish a combo plate (beans & rice). Highly recommend.

    Margaritas and salsa are great

    Food is mediocre and portion sizes have gotten smaller. The carne asada burrito was just meat wrapped in a tortilla. Pretty tasteless.

    Came here for dinner last Friday before catching a movie. We arrived before 6pm when it wasn't busy…read moreyet; there're more people when we left. I liked their causal vibe and Christmas decorations. They even had an upside down Christmas tree! I had pork chop, which came with smashed potato and spinach. Unfortunately, the sauce was so salty making the spinach inedible. The pork chop was not bad after removing the sauce and so was the smashed potato as it wasn't all covered in sauce. Our server, Simone, was very nice and offered to get me another side order of spinach, which saved the day! My husband enjoyed his baked salmon entree, which was recommended by Simone. We skipped appetizers so that we could have room for dessert and the lava cake didn't disappoint. Overall, not a bad dinner experience.

    We had a nice dinner here. Our server Simone was very friendly and gave us good recommendations…read morefor food. I had the baked horseradish salmon, which was cooked very well (not overcooked at all), served very hot, and the spinach was cooked very well also, not limp and soggy like cooked spinach often is. The seasoning on the salmon was nice, with the horseradish seasoning apparent but not overpowering. The sauce was rich, but the right amount was on there to add taste but not make the dish too heavy. My wife's pork was good overall, but she found the spinach too salty for her taste, but Simone was great about offering a replacement plate of spinach which wasn't too salty and also offered other sides as well (but we just took the spinach). The lava cake came quickly, had plenty of ice cream with it, and wasn't overly sweet. The place is fairly casual, being in Santa Cruz/Capitola, and on one hand, the food was above what you'd expect at a fairly casual restaurant. But the prices were close to what you'd find at a nicer-than-casual restaurant (~$30 entrees, $40-45 for steaks), so the rating is measured against expectations for the price point rather than the ambiance. So it was good and we enjoyed it, but at the price point there are a lot of choices where you can get quite good food, so the star rating reflects that.
