The chips were quite heavy but the queso was tasty. My wife and I split the brisket plate with sidesof beans and potato salad. The brisket was incredibly tender, but I wish they had not added cracked pepper. The beans wereso-so, but the potato salad was delicious. Sadly, and we’re wondering if it’s just a downtown thing or not, but our serverseemed dismissive of us. Even our attempts to make eye contact and engage her in conversation failed to slow her down. All inall, it was good food, but too pricey for what was delivered uncaringly.
