I've been wanting to try this place for ages - I was hoping I might be finding "my new fave local". Sadly no.  Service was impeccable and the food was pretty good but a couple of things let down the overall experience. Firstly, the Fajitas consisted of one small chicken breast and the usual toppings on the side. FOR $34!!! Seriously?!? It came with 5 or more wraps but there was barely enough chicken for two! Secondly, we were celebrating a birthday - table of 20 people (so not a meagre bill by any stretch!) and we were going to be charged $2.50 PER SLICE them to cut and serve the birthday cake we brought with us. No thanks!! The cake was a Woollies cheapy picked up on the way (just something to sing Happy Birthday with) and was going to be feeding the kids only. So, after I learned of the ridiculous "cake-age" we sang Happy Birthday and took the cake home with us (kinda ridiculous but I'm not paying $25 - we had 10 kids total at the table - to feed the kids some Woollies cake that cost $2.50 on clearance! They've all got it in their lunch boxes today instead!) The food was ok, Fish Taco was quite tasty, I tried some of the Deluxe nachos and, whilst tasty, the beef was a bit chewy but nice flavour. Overall I'd rate the quality of the food as pretty good, the service as fantastic (our waitress didn't miss a beat and I believe the manager/owner was there also who was also very attentive), the atmosphere was nice, but I sadly wouldn't eat there again just for the exorbitant prices/charges alone.
