The food is usually great but I ordered for my kids for the first time and never will again the kids meal was only two tiny chicken tenders that were the size of nuggets

Delicious food and delicious drinks! A fun atmosphere. Love the Ahi tuna and Chimichurri salads. Great price!
We got a burger and a salad to share between the two of us. You can ask the staff to divide the food portion in halves. Burger was disappointing - a bit dry, small, and lack any taste. Salad was probably the wiser choice - fresh and good portion.
