Little Water Cantina

Little Water Cantina Review We visited Little Water Cantina to meet up with family for a nice Mexican meal. The ordering process felt a bit awkward, as we were asked to place our orders through our phones rather than with a server—it felt like they were still operating under COVID-era protocols. We had a few questions while ordering, so the host ended up coming over and taking our order directly, which was helpful. The food itself was average overall, though it did have an authentic taste, which we appreciated. What really stood out, though, was the atmosphere. The restaurant is beautifully located along the water’s edge, and the setting was clean and relaxing. Unfortunately, parking was a bit of a hassle due to ongoing construction in the area, which has been an issue for a while. All in all, it’s a great spot if you’re looking for ambiance and waterfront views—just be prepared for a quirky ordering system and limited parking.

So, I’m gonna be completely honest. The food was good, but it was so not worth the money. It tasted great, but this was not a $100 meal BEFORE TIP. So let’s start with the Margarita, if I pay $16 for a margarita I expect a HUGE GLASS and this tiny thing was all I got… As for the queso, it was pretty tasty, but they were cheap on the chips. I expect enough for the queso and there just weren’t enough. For the chimichanga, that was only thing full worth the money. The chicken was delicious and flavorful. That mole was fantastic and that comes from a Mexican girl who grew up eating it from my grandma. Parking is shitty, they only have about a dozen spots in the park garage below and there’s no street parking. The view is nice, but it is very disconnected from the lake. Just go somewhere further down the hill to enjoy the water. The weirdest part was expecting at least an 18% tip on the bill and all they did was bring us our food. We sat ourselves, we ordered ourselves (no recommendations from staff), and there was no check-ins from staff. I’ve had better service at a fast food restaurant. Anyway, I definitely won’t be back and don’t recommend.

Cute cantina with amazing view. Cozy outdoor patio that’s great on a sunny day. Food was good but pricey. $1.50 for avocado 🥑 but only came with 1 slice?🫤Ordering via phone with large party WAY too complicated😔😵‍💫.

I rolled into Little Water Cantina on Eastlake expecting good views, but got great everything. The Wild Boar Burrito was crispy, smoky magic, and the Shrimp Tacos brought just the right coconut-chipotle punch. Chips and guac? Bright, fresh, inhaled - the only chips I’ll pay for but worth the $16?! That hibiscus-lime agua fresca? Summer in a glass. But the real kicker—every single person working there was genuinely warm and on it. Food came fast, smiles came faster. Even with QR ordering, the vibe felt personal and easy. Eastlake’s got plenty of spots, but this one actually makes you want to stay awhile.

This place has one of the prettiest views I’ve ever seen at a restaurant in Seattle for the price — perfect for a relaxing meal. The chips were super fresh and crispy, and the carne asada burrito was so good, even as leftovers. Service was amazing too — everyone was friendly and on it. Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to!

I celebrated my birthday on the patio at Little Water Cantina, and everything was amazing, start to finish! The fish tacos, chips and salsa, and guacamole were all fresh, flavorful, and a big hit with everyone in my group. The atmosphere on the patio was also a great spot for a celebration - you get great views of lake Union. The staff was incredibly attentive and kind, making sure we had everything we needed the whole time. One thing I really appreciated was how the QR codes allowed everyone in my party to open and pay their own tab, but it all still counted toward the group minimum. Super convenient and made the night stress-free. The drinks were great and reasonably priced, too! Everyone had a great time, and I’ll definitely be back soon. Highly recommend Little Water Cantina for any special occasion, group event, or just a night out! 🌮🎉

Meh. It was... Fine. There was nothing wrong with any of the food. Not much flavor. Like the recipes were created for white Americans who complained that salsa is spicy and Pozole too exotic, and always want their money back. The rice in my burrito seemed to be just white rice. The traditional service of chips and salsa of most Mexican restaurants is not included, and the salsa size is paltry. But the spot is gorgeous. It really feels like this spot is made to serve cocktails with a view and the food is an afterthought for drunk and hungry patrons. You order on your phone and we barely saw the staff. So. If you are an American who likes to spend a little more money to pretend to eat food of the world without actually having to taste spices, while getting drunk with a a great view of the lake, this is definitely THE spot to go

First time visit. We stumbled onto the Little Water Cantina as we were trying to leave Seattle, after a trip. Just got turned around a bit. Happened in at Lunch time. Almost the first customers. Menu via QR code. Table service by host. Ordering was done via our server. Sat on the covered patio, which has mostly picnic bench style seating. Service was very good. We ordered a beef barbacoa burrito and two grilled fish tacos with rice and beans, along with chips, salsa and guacamole. We didn't have to wait long for the food to arrive. The burrito was wrapped in foil and served with a lemon wedge and a bit of salsa. The tacos, rice and beans were plated well and of decent portion size. A couple things didn't quite meet our expectations. The rice and beans were barely warm and the rice was not very flavorful. Also, the chips and salsa are not complimentary. I can say I enjoyed the burrito very much. This lunch for two was $60 before tip. In spite of the shortcomings, the atmosphere (patio overlooking Lake Union and several marinas) and the restaurant's decor are favorable. And, the tacos, burrito, chips, salsa and guacamole were very good, in my opinion.

The food was fresh, though I wanted the salsas to be spicier. Loved sitting on the back deck. Great view. Especially on a sunny day. Odd menu/ordering system: You scan the qr code to see the menu and order. No one appears that you can ask questions. We ordered the chips and salsa. Enjoyed the mixed corn and flour chips, obviously house made. The salsa was nice, but very mild. Id lije ut spicier. You get a nice sized portion of chips, without enough salsa to eat them with. We flagged someone down to get more salsa, and were advised we'd need to buy more salsa. So for $7, you get chips and salsa, but if you want more salsa, you gotta pay. We tried the elote corn and appreciated the knife to cut it off the cob. It was ok, but would probably not order again. Very mayo heavy. The grilled fish tacos were tasty but very messy to eat. The green salsa it came with had little flavor and no heat at all. The rice and beans were great! Loved those flavorful beans. I'm sorry I paid online when I ordered. I would have tipped less after the meal. The service was barely there.

I just got back from Tulum and was still craving tacos - when I walked outside and saw they were serving fresh watermelon margaritas I decided to stop. I came in for a late lunch (3pm) and there were about 5 tables taken. A friendly waiter greeted me - I was able to seat myself on the patio and enjoy the view. I learned while I sat here that they have a free parking garage - I walked so I didn't require it, but that's great information to give my friends who drive down (I'll be back). The watermelon margarita was so fresh - the refreshing cocktail I was hoping for on this sunny day. The fish tacos hit the spot - great flavor and appropriately sized. Unfortunately - I found a few bones in one taco. I was fully intending to make this a 5 star review before those unfortunate few bites. Stuff happens - it didn't ruin my experience.

Great place to hang out overlooking the lake on a nice day with a few cervezas and margaritas. Came her after a UW graduation before flying out of town. Meal took an hour which was perfect. Ordering is done via toast tab. Had quesadillas, nachos burritos tacos, salads, etc and everyone was pleased.

I couldn't imagine a Mexican restaurant being worse. To start with the good, patio seating and homemade tortillas. It ends there. You order from a QR code and food is delivered. Hate this. No interaction. No human connection. We ordered tacos, grilled fish and chicken tinga. They were stingier with their meat than Chipotle...on a bad day. There was plenty of cabbage and crema. So much that you could not close the tortilla to eat the taco. The tortilla was so thin, everything fell through the bottom. This was not a taco. I ordered corn tortillas and received flour. Not a big deal but one of the little things that made this experience one I would not want to repeat or recommend. As a visitor to Seattle, this might be the best Mexican restaurant available. If so, I'm so sorry. Don't eat here. Don't waste your money. Pass on Little Water Cantina.

5 stars for ambiance and food... service and sustainability make this a 4 star review. If you're lucky enough to get an outside table in the summer, grab it. And then try a spicy margarita which is delicious and served in an actual glass. (For some reason, water comes in a single use plastic glass, despite this being the 2020s.) Tacos and elote corn are very good.. sharing food is easy but requires a lot of coordination through their ordering system (especially if you want separate bills). Maybe just have one person order everything and then use venmo.

No reservations, so we waited about 25 minutes at the bar for a seat on the beautiful outdoor patio. The watermelon margs were as fresh as advertised and the chips and salsa were bold and spicy (skip the flour chips). It was $17 for 2 largely stuffed fried fish tacos, but they were delicious and service was kind.

This place has pretty decent Mexican food for prices that are a little high, but makes sense for the location. Definitely ask for an outdoor seat here because the view is amazing, you can even see Gas Works Park from their patio! The service was decent, you get your menu from a QR code and order on your phone so you're not personally tended to. The chips with salsa and guacamole was a great starter. They had 2 different types of chips which I liked. The salsa is very spicy though (and I like spice)!!! The tacos were good with not much meat on them but enough to satisfy me. The quesadillas were thin and plain, so probably wouldn't order those again. Overall: AMAZING location because of its clear waterfront view. The food was average for a Mexican spot, and the service was mainly through a device which didn't bother me.

Food was really good and the portions were huge! Was a bit spendy, even though it was happy hour. I would go back with a big group on a night out, but definitely not a a regular thing! Was mostly self serve (online order and online menu) with somewhat slow service (had to grab my own box from a table because no one came back). Other than that, the staff was very friendly and accommodating.

I've worked in Eastlake for almost 17 years now and I had been wanting to try this place since they opened! I happened to order takeout since I live in the area now. Saturday night, seemed slow, super sweet and kind server, food was ready in no time. I take my tacos very seriously (Mexican born here) and I really liked their asada ones; perfect combo with the toppings and delicious salsa, their rice and beans (these beans are pretty epic; puerco style) were pretty delicious. Have to come back for brunch or dinner, ambience seems pretty chill and pleasant.

Went here after 2 years. Really great food like the last time. The nachos are delicious. Huge in size. The wild mushroom burrito was also tasty. The sauce that comes with it is spicy. So be careful. The scenarie is beautiful. Must go again.

Maybe it was a magic moment, being right at opening on New Years Day, or maybe they've taken some of the feedback left here by others to heart. Regardless, my partner and I had a great time at Little Water Cantina, which was our first time, and we'll absolutely be back. Are you paying for the view on top of the food? Absolutely! But I've paid twice as much for half as decent food at other places with views around town. Honestly, I thought their barbacoa was amazing and the salsa that came with the chips was stellar. I didnt find the staff cold at all. Granted, we were the only ones there. We were provided with all the accoutrements for the table as expected and we didnt find the QR menu experience cumbersome at all. The food came fast and was very tasty. I def will be ordering extra tortillas and splitting the tacos up next time. I scoffed at the price at first for two tacos, but they were so full that they were more like 4 tacos at other places. The experience of paying without interacting with anyone was a little disconcerting, and I could see how that part of the experience could come off feeling cold to other folks. But I appreciated the simplicity and we were well-wished warmly on the way out. I suspect some of this gets lost when they fill up, which is why I'll likely continue to try going at odd hours. Oh and for those concerned about the location, theres decent parking on site if they arent busy. A whole little parking level underneath the building.

Highly recommend in the summertime when you're looking to sit outside in the sun with a beautiful view of the water and enjoy a nice casual meal with friends. Food is nothing to write home about, pretty average but decent Mexican food. Lots of different kinds of margaritas, also good but nothing super memorable. Like it said, it's all About the view, and it's worth it! I keep it on my summertime patio list.

Food, medium. View, perfect. Music, 2009 dance party. Service: none. Things didn't come, no one checked on us. Other restaurants can do QR ordering, and still own the table's experience. Not here. When I asked them to remove the item that didn't come... They didn't. I asked again. It's still on there. Let's see.

Not real Mexican food. Food was not hot, everyone at my table said food was warm. Will not return.

The margarita I ordered was decent 7/10! The food was definitely white washed Mexican food and I ordered the safest thing which was the shrimp burrito and it was ok. The view in the patio was great, the fire place in the front dining room was cozy. This is a place just to grab a couple drinks and sit up at the bar. Would come back only for alcohol if it's on my way...

Never not tipped at a restaurant, this was the first time. The app ordering experience is awful and I can only assume it's been put in place by greedy owners who don't want to pay to keep a staff on. I go to a restaurant to interact with people, enjoy service and enjoy food. Our time there was emotionally cold and lackluster. The view is nice, the food is decent, but you're paying for the view. The staff didn't seem like they were enjoying themselves at all and I assume that it's because the job of interacting with humans has been taken away by a QR code. We ordered three items and never received one, couldn't flag anyone down to help while we were at the table but were able to speak with the bartender to have the item removed. The bartender was friendly and apologetic, but if you're trying to streamline service by getting technology involved, you need to ensure accuracy. When our food was dropped off we weren't asked if we needed anything else, any sauces, silverware, anything. No one checked in to see how things were tasting. Would be a fine place for takeout, but if you want a standard restaurant experience, this isn't the place for you. I've been here in years past and the service and ambiance was lovely when there were actually people taking orders, but I won't be going back. I hope owners make some changes because I don't see this cafeteria style dining for restaurant prices working out for them for much longer.

Great view, food and drinks were good, and service was very prompt/friendly. I really liked the online ordering experience.

Waiter never showed up, we had to use an app to order for ourselves, app didn't work because too sunny on outdoor deck, no one around to take an order and we are supposed to clear our own table after we're finished...but by all means have a good time! Guessing they expect a 20% tip?

I'm not normally one to leave Yelp reviews, but I love this place. The food is excellent, and the year-round outdoor seating is a huge plus with views of the water. The bar selection and house drinks are hard to beat, and I like the vibe at the bar. it's the perfect kind of place for a good clean meal with the family, or to sneak in for a few drinks and snacks at the bar. Highly recommended.

This place has an amazing view. The Mexican food has flavor. It is not on the heavy side spices that most Mexican restaurants have...However it is appropriate flavor for all ages and taste buds. Your not getting authentic Mexican food but it's better than most. The portion sizes are okay for the price. It is a little on the pricey side but you are paying for the view and the atmosphere is my opinion. The restaurant was clean and staffed as friendly. The margaritas are good. If you do order the $35 margarita just be aware they use the work Chalas for the size. This is not the Chalas most would think it is about the size you get from Texas Roadhouse. Give it a try you all and see how you like it and leave a review.

The reviews from others are basically accurate. Perhaps due to staff shortages, it feels like a very nice cafeteria instead of a restaurant. The staff is generally pleasant on our visit, with one exception, but it feels like nobody is in charge--it's hard to get help, there's no host or manager (or nobody who acts like one). The prices being charged are restaurant prices for the view, more or less. The food was fine. A basket of about 20 tortilla chips with admittedly excellent salsa for $7 is insane, however. As others noted, you have to use an online ordering system that's a little janky, but it worked fine, and the food came very quickly, even though the place was full. It just had the feeling of going to a Taco Time with a bar. The menu is pretty thin: it's mostly the same items in a few different forms, like tacos, burritos, chimichangas. I had ordered one kind of burrito and a different one arrived, which I didn't notice (it was also good) and had completely eaten, when one of the staff came by about 10 minutes later with another burrito...because they had given us the wrong one! So I got an extra burrito out of the experience. You have to dig up stuff you need, like water, silverware, napkins, etc. When my spouse asked the bartender for help, he was openly rude to her. Why would we go to a restaurant where an undemanding request for silverware--my wife is never anything but perfectly polite--would get an unpleasant response? On a more specific matter, we tried to find out about gluten and got a very uncertain response from the kitchen, meaning one of our party had very limited options. We were there for the weekly trivia night which, despite there being tons of room on the deck and main room, was held in the dark bar area near the front, meaning on a glorious evening near sunset we were off in the dark. The trivia was extremely well run, however, and fun. It seemed like the restaurant staff wasn't very into the trivia event happening. This place has the makings of an actual restaurant. Somebody needs to come in and overhaul it. Make it welcoming, perhaps.

Went here in 2023 very often and used to love the queso and Brussels sprouts. Fish taco was the best taco, but those other two items were special. Coming back in summer 2024, I'm disappointed to report the queso recipe has declined drastically -- we ended up eating the chips plain. The chips were good at least, but those are $16 chips. The Brussels sprouts were removed completely, sadly as well. Hopefully my little water cantina experience will not become a memory, but I'm afraid of dark times ahead.

I LOVEDDDDDDD my time here! The view from this restaurant is absolutely amazing, the service is to die for, and the vibes are impeccable. My friends and I intended to meet only for drinks but ended up eating food too. The nachos, chips & guac, and the ceviche are amazing. The chips that come with the quac is so good and I wish they served it with everything! Craig the bartender is the bomb! He made some amazing drinks throughout the night and was extremely thoughtful when we didn't know what drinks we wanted to order. I would go back to Seattle just to visit Craig and have the drinks he made again! This restaurant would not be anything without him. 10/10 would return!

Lovely view, good ambience, and slightly overpriced (for the quality) food. I'm giving it a 4 because we had a nice time overall and enjoyed the view, not for the food quality. They had Pacifico beer that I loved. But, nachos could be better than that.. Give it a try once if you are in the area, you'll enjoy the view!

Ok yes the food here is pretty good. I got the chicken quesadilla which was packed with grilled veggies and had a healthy portion of guac on the side. But the service and QR code thing to pay with is trash. It's so confusing trying to split up the tab because when you order for the same table it all goes on the same bill. Not super fun going in large groups abs trying to pay or get served. Great atmosphere and view!! But the experience to literally get service and pay kinda ruins the vibe

My barbacoa burrito came cold internally... what else to say? Service is also non existent. 3 for the view, 1 for everything else

You cannot go wrong with their food. O.M.G. I've been here twice. Once during wintertime and once this weekend when the sun was shining and their patio was blooming (with patrons). Hands down an easy vibe spot where you can go to hang out and eat good food. Their guacamole is delish! Please order some. Extra salsa (small) was $0.50 and worth it with my entree. The food really is amazing here. The burritos, tacos, chimichanga. Everything. My only grievance is that I still haven't figured out how to customize my drinks given we order from the phone. This weekend saw some folks training so I am hoping we can go back to full service soon and not have to use the phones.

We were trying to go to the U District street fair, but gave up on the horrible traffic and decided to try Little Water Cantina because my gal used to live in Eastlake and remembered it being good. I have to say it was! You order off a QR code menu, which is pretty nice, cause you can keep adding to the order. I will be back, good food and drinks with a beautiful view!

Great location with a stunning view of Lake Union. I had a question about the QR code and the staff was super friendly and answered my question right away. I was feeling a bit indecisive so the bartender created a drink for me that was absolutely delicious and made for a very custom experience. Highly recommend and we will certainly be back.

Food was excellent. Service was great. If you don't like the order by QR code from the tables. The severs are great and willing to help. Cayman was awesome.

No service. Order from an app. No one comes by to check on you. Queso was watery and no flavor. Extremely over priced. A server came by and picked up our food half way thru eating it to take it away and we had to tell him we weren't done, and he was extremely rude about it. Not worth it.

Amazing food yeah yeah yeah... blah blah blah my mom can make amazing food. What makes this place special is the service. Makes me feel like I'm at my mother's. Only my mother can do that...until I came here.

This is a great place to watch the sunset or hang out on a patio by the lake on a nice day! We had to wait for about 30min around 7:30pm on a nice weather Wednesday. The food is fine, just a bit overpriced in my opinion. The drinks were pretty good too. I'd come back for the fun ambiance and view.

I so appreciate how they have outdoor seating year round! The patio area is gorgeous and the food was incredible, probably the best fish tacos I've ever had. The servers were quick & friendly. Can't wait to go again.

If you're looking for a place to sit on a patio with a view of the water on a sunny evening, this is an absolutely exceptional spot. The view is criminally good. This is your classic Mexican place for reliable margaritas, chips and salsa (VERY good!), burritos, and tacos. Nothing crazy to say - we got two burritos (chicken tinga and carnitas) and both were solid. The perfect spot for anyone who's looking for a casual sit down experience with great outdoor seating, yummy food, and an amazing view. Will be a new staple for us on sunny evenings!

Stopped by Little Water Cantina in Eastlake for lunch on a slow Thursday afternoon. We ordered the beef chimichangas, shrimp tacos and veggie tacos. The food was nothing amazing but it was not bad at all. We wanted to have their verde margaritas but that was out of stock so we stuck to modelo. Food was out relatively fast and we had the whole restaurant to ourselves. They do have ample street parking if not they do have parking in their building premises as well. We had the best seat in the house by the water and the entire outdoor patio was covered and heated making it comfortable for us to sit and enjoy our lunch. While the food was okay (nothing bad but nothing amazing either) I would give this place an extra star only for their gorgeous views. Would be amazing to stop by on a sunny Seattle evening and enjoy some margaritas.

I am not usually one to leave reviews but I cannot stop raving about the 5 star service I received from Amanda at Little Water. From the time I walked in, she went above and beyond to make sure all our needs were tended to and the ambience was exceptional. It started when I ordered a margarita and the bartender made it spicy. I said I don't like spicy, so Amanda drank it and gargled it in her own mouth to make sure it wasn't too hot, and then baby birded it to me. It was like suckling from a bottle all over again and I haven't felt so comforted in a long time. Then Amanda came over and hand fed chips and guac into my mouth, getting the exact right ratio of chip to guac with each bite. This is a woman who knows how to anticipate her guests every needs. I will tell everyone I know to come here for exceptional food and exceptional service. Thank you Amanda!

Food is always excellent, service outstanding and atmosphere is warm, fresh and inviting. Have incredible bar selections and suburb wine selection.

Good food! Wait time is kind of long. Their Flour Tortilla Chips are amazing! The bathroom is surprisingly nice.

We live nearby Little Water Cantina, about a 5 minute walk. So naturally we've been there more than a few times. Pros are the view, the food, and the vibe. Cons are the price (a little expensive for what you get), and the service is iffy. I like that you can order your food via QR code but there really isn't anyone around to ask questions. Get the nachos!

This is a great spot for drinks on the patio. Despite the reviews, I thought service was fine and had no issues with ordering through the app. The vibe is good, seating was relatively organized and quick, the food was sub par. We ordered the fish tacos which were so-so, but nothing to brag about. Rice and beans were terrible. We will definitely be back but just for drinks and views.

Food: 2/5 The food was bland and not very authentic we tried several items off the menu but it was all just "ok". It was way over priced ($15 for two street tacos, $11 for chips and a little cup of guacamole that was also just bland no salt or lime taste to it) Service: 1/5 There is none and that is the main reason for such a low rating. Any restaurant that outsources it's service to a lifeless app, that takes forever to order with, that has people looking at their phones trying to figure out how to pay and input every credit card related piece of information, instead of enjoying the company of the people they are with, is gonna tank their rating. Ambiance: 4/5 This is the only thing this place has going for it. The lighting and decor are very pleasant and the outdoor seating in the back is very nice.

TLDR: great ambiance (patio on the water), delicious crispy and fresh food, great cocktails to explore. Beware the mobile ordering system . Came to little water cantina for a post-work get together. Nothing beats the views: you are right in the water with sailboats passing by. Tables are first come first serve. I didn't get pictures of everything (after a 12 hour shift we were starving!) but I will review what we did get: Margherita fresca : honestly not much strawberry flavor I tried some of my friends margherita verde which I liked much more. It had a more herby flavor and that was well balanced. Fried tortilla with guacamole: an absolute delicious appetizer everyone should get. It finishes quick. It's a nice fried bubbly tortilla with a great light crisp crunchy texture and guacamole that's well balanced. It hits the spot very well! Nachos and salsa: always a classic if this is something you're craving. The salsa is not spicy, nacho chips are crisp and not overly salted. Carne Asada burrito: just a typical burrito with carne Asada that hits the spot. You won't be mad when you get it. The beans are well seasoned, I wish the carne Asada had a marinade to add more flavor to make it impressive, but it was good for accommodating any hot sauce. It doesn't come with guacamole inside. Be careful with their mobile ordering system, they may send out multiple orders of the same thing and try to charge you for it. Make sure to get it corrected. Overall, I think this a great summer place to go for a drink or a bite to eat with a view.

The good: the patio is nice, with a view of the lake. The staff were all really nice. The bad: the food. We ordered fish tacos and carnitas, plus the ceviche. All were soggy and completely bland. (And expensive). We couldn't even eat them.

Large outdoor space. 8 picnic tables spread out inside under a large tent and probably about 8 more in uncovered area on either side of the tent. Awesome views of lake union and we were able to see the sunset. Service was really friendly and covid precautions were in place. You order at counter and get a number. We picked our picnic table and then my husband went up to order. Got chips and salsa appetizer, a chicken quesadilla and taco salad add spicy shrimp. After about 20 min we still didn't get any food despite the server/manager coming out several times with chips and guac/salsa for other tables that arrived well after us. I was pretty hungry so was looking forward to starting with some chips. We finally got our food but no chips and salsa. Server did bring out right away but not with the chips my husband requested when ordering (all corn tortilla). You order chips and salsa as a starter and hope it comes out first. It ended up being an "ender" since we wanted to eat entrees warm. If I would have known, I would have not ordered chips! And couldn't even get this comped since we already paid at counter lol. Taco salad with spicy shrimp: mixed green salad was great with cucumber, pico, corn and beans. There was a light and creamy avocado lime dressing. The spicy shrimp, however, was small (especially for extra $7) and not spicy at all! It had a nice smoky flavor since it was sautéed with smoked onions, but not one bit spicy. I doused it in cholula hot sauce! Quesadilla with chicken: not enough flavor or enough stuffing. Especially when chicken was extra as well. Filling to tortilla ratio was off. Way too small for total of $17 and something you could make at home. The guac was good! Chips and salsa: we got two different types of chips due to the order / service mishap lol but both types were great! Fried corn and fluffy fried flour! I prefer the corn so do wish we got an entire plate of that but the fried tortilla was unique. Definitely was the most indulgent chips and salsa I've had with all of the fried chips. Salsa was decent... wish it had more of a kick. Overall decent food and affordable price especially for view. However the added cost for proteins are not a good value. Would come back for margs + chips and salsa on a sunny day. Also another huge bummer for us was no dogs allowed outside even though it's a huge outdoor patio.

Food was good the first time I ate here. Unfortunately when I went back the second time the service was brutal. We did not receive service for 10 minutes, no waters or even a look our we. We decided to leave as the servers were clearly overwhelmed which led to poor service.

Ordering: I would say this isn't the most user friendly because you need a phone to order to view a menu and also to place an order. You can easily say doesn't everyone have a phone ? I would say yes and no. Not everyone would be able to use their phone to place an order. I do understand the concept but I do still think ordering with a actual menu in front of them would be extremely beneficial for those who aren't able to order with a smart phone. Ambiance: There is a balcony with open seating which is good only for clear days. The day I went it actually started to rain. The restaurant is clean which is a plus. Also there is a bar located inside. Service: :) lol there isn't much "service" to comment on. However, everyone greeted people who came in and also left so that is nice. They do bring you your order once it's placed and it did came pretty quick.

Absolutely love the outdoor patio here, as well as the ability to order on your phone. Great spot to come with a big group as there is lots of room and easy to have separate checks. The food is fantastic, and I love that they split the chips and salsa appetizer (half flour, half corn). Wonderful experience! I'll be back.

I've been coming here a long time. I'm sad to say today might be the last time. The food is still good...if you actually get the correct order...and if it actually shows up! Three out of five of our party got the wrong order. Took forever for drinks to show up. Since Covid they've switched to a fully automated ordering system which clearly doesn't work the way it should, especially after being in place for at least a couple years. The patio and the view are the only things keeping this place alive. What a bummer!!
