“ I stopped in here for lunch and it was a tasty surprise for this cool little town. The waitress promptly served me unsweet tea. I ordered the carne asada with a salad and a bowl of tortilla soup. The salad was fresh and the ranch was very yummy. The tortilla soup was also yummy, hearty and very flavorful. The carne asada was also tender and had the right amount of char from the grill. The mashed potatoes were spot on. All in all this was a good lunch and I will be back. ”
“ We enjoyed lunch on the patio with our dog, they brought her a bowl of water, and our service was wonderful. We ordered the chips with salsa and queso and it was delicious. I had the roasted pear with steak and goat cheese (instead of feta) and it was really good. My husband enjoyed the steak tacos and said they were very good with the exception of a few pieces of steak being inedible (hence 4 stars instead of 5). All in it was a wonderful lunch spot. The patio is a very cute space with trees, bamboo along the fence line, twinkle lights, etc. I walked into the woman's bathroom and said WOW, it was so pretty! Odd thing to point out, but it's noteworthy :) ”
“ Nice choices on the lunch menu. The chicken salad wrap is huge and delicious. Green posole - spicy and very good. The roasted grape salad - unusual and just the best. A top spot for Carlsbad ”
