I was impressed with the decor and size of the restaurant, there were only a few people there so we had a choice of many tables. The waitress seated us, took our drink orders and when she brought the drinks then took our meal orders. That was it for the service. We couldn't attract any attention to get another drink so my wife ending up going to the bar and asking. In the mean time our entree had arrived - potato wedges with sour cream and guacamole which was quite nice but at $20 was a bit expensive. We shared this between us. The mains arrived and luckily I had ordered jalapeños mixed into my enchilada as we all found the meals very basic and a bit bland. None of us finished our meals - we all gave them about a 5 out of 10. Meanwhile, we never got our second drinks so we got fed up with waiting and left. This place could be so much better than it is. With the large choice of local restaurants in Traralgon, this is one I won't be going back to anytime soon.

My fajitas fillings came out on a sizzling hot plate and they were flavoursome and the vegetables within were nice and crisp. Food and drinks were served promptly. Yes the staff all looked quite young and maybe not very experienced but youve got to learn somewhere! Probably a bit more expensive than its worth but in saying that I would still go again :)

The new people are Chinese I believe so it's not hard to understand why it went backwards quickly.

It's a shame because we have been coming here on Friday nights at least once a month for a while now just for the margaritas. The new owner has taken away this great promotion and until (if) it returns, we won't be coming back.
