Food was great service was good and a good overall place to take the family

First all, the place design is super . From the color to the WINE GLASS-PALETS CHANDELIERS. I love how when we enter, you automatically see the cooler with the type of beer. (More of a variety like MODELO & TECATE) we were greeted at the door, by Luis (New Guy & Our waiter) really nice guys. To be new he really broke down the food. We got the #2Plater. Wow! The ribs & wings were delicious. Really enjoyed it. I will come back with all my family.

Great food. Lots of leftovers for later. Next time, I’ll get baked potato instead of fries for the Sampler #1. Definitely will go back

Best onion rings I ever had in my life, presentation is flawless, tasty and the service is top tier. 100% coming back again.

Great service, friendly and food delicious. I recommend a sampler plate and take it from there based on how hungry you are.

Great place for eating out with friends and family. They've got a great selection of beer and food. The music is not loud so you can have a nice conversation and the atmosphere in general is very family friendly in case you're thinking about bringing children. The waiters may be a bit overwhelmed at times, making it hard for you to ask for whatever you need to ask. It took me a solid 5 minutes to get a writer's attention to ask for more beer. They made a few too many mistakes when we got the bill, which made me a bit uncomfortable and suspicious. Other than that, this place is grear. Also, restrooms are very clean.

At first, I was like, Ok, coming from USA ???????? to eat BBQ Ribs in Tijuana? But I got convinced to went in and order the half Beef Ribs with Jack Daniels’s sauce and half of the Pork half slab.. The portions were Big and I was so impressed with the flavor, tenderness.. They can definitely compete with our best options in the USA and Texas!! Love it
