We have been dying to try out the famous Bongo Room. All the times we’ve stopped by the line is out the door so it’s safe to say our expectations were high. We ordered the Caramel Pancakes and Chorize Burrito to split. Although the prices are a bit high it’s definitely someplace we would come back! Delicious food , Great ambience and our server Medi made the experience all the better! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
