Came here for dinner with girlfriends! I really wanted to love this place, but there are definitely pros and cons from my experience. I loved the ambiance - located right off Water Street, they have a beautiful interior which opens up to a full patio that is close to overlooking the Riverwalk. As another review indicated, they don't take reservations and we had to hope that they had an open table available when we arrived. We got there at 7 PM on a Tuesday evening after Memorial Day, and most tables were filled! Just to let y'all know that they are definitely busy - especially during the summertime!
I asked the server what their guacamole special was for the day. She told me the fruit of the day was cantelope. I went ahead and ordered the regular guacamole. Have to say - the 3 stars in this review are from this guacamole alone!! It was creamy, tangy, fresh and wonderfully seasoned. I would definitely come back just for the guacamole alone, and highly recommend! The chips were pretty average, but they ended up pairing well with the guacamole and were lightly salted as well.
I was disappointed with my vegetarian taco, however, and definitely wouldn't recommend this place for those with dietary restrictions. Most of the menu catered to those who ate meat, and I didn't feel that my taco really justified the price point. I had two tacos only, and although it was beautifully presented, I just didn't feel like the taste represented what I was expecting. I had to do a double take because I felt like I wasn't eating something vegetarian - they fried the avocado bits, but I didn't taste anything else. I think the experience would have helped if the taco was paired with a sauce to give the taco more flavor.
Loved the ambiance and guacamole, but that was about all that was impressive about my experience. I would definitely come here again but it would be to try their drinks!
