It was just iceberg lettuce with croutons and dressing in the side. The build your own pasta dishes were fantastic! The service was not great however, and this wasn't a unique experience as we've been here before and experienced poor service. Our waitress started out attentive but after our appetizers came, she didn't come back for about 15-20 mins to take our order. Our main dishes took about 30 minutes to come out. Once they did we never saw our waitress afterwards. We waited about 30-45 more mins and then we finally went to go find her to ask for to go boxes and the check. All in all we were there for about two hours, but not for good reason. I think this place has great potential, they just need to better train their staff to be more attentive.

I got the chicken parmigiana lunch for takeout, which is $3 more if you get it during dinner time. I also got the meatball hot sub. After a $2 service fee, my total was $30, which was great value for how much food I got. I ended up getting 3.5 meals out of these two dishes. The chicken parmigiana lunch was delicious. The pasta and chicken were both very tasty. It came with garlic bread, which I think only had garlic on half of it. The meatball sub was gigantic. The meat didn't exactly suit my taste buds, but the sub was still tasty.

Varied menu we went with the Meat pizza, they did not have Coke Zero and the only coke they had was in the Bottle with pure sugar. So a little overload. Food was great and the service was wonderful, nice atmosphere to this place. The only issue came when I went to pay the bill they could not get a manager to come to the register to okay the lunch, seems like they did not know how to handle this transaction. Made the experience not as good as it had started. The waitress said she would take care of it and for us not to wait around. They also have Gelato at the store and they have wonderful pastries which we picked up the following week for our son's birthday. Pastries were excellent and reminded me of bakeries in the Bronx.

I even grabbed a few pieces of their sweet bread to serve with strawberries and whipped cream. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and generous. The carnitas were tender and perfectly seasoned, the fajitas were juicy, and the menudo was exactly what you want, rich, comforting, and authentic. The guacamole and salsa are freshly made. Best part? All of that was under $50. The staff is always friendly and they recognize their regulars, which makes it feel like a true neighborhood spot. If you're looking for quality Mexican food without restaurant prices, this is your go to spot. Austin Yelp elite approved!

We got there around 8, and tried to order drinks, the bartender seemed like she didn't know what she was doing but might've been new. It was almost impossible to find any servers, and when we finally to order found someone, the kitchen had closed. They had this smoke machine thing going and it was so incredibly hot and smoggy in there. I love some party music and a DJ, but the music was CRAZY loud. I don't usually write reviews, but I feel like this needed to be talked about. Service was poor, by both the server and the bartender.

I ordered the Chicken Alfredo, and my friends ordered the Chicken Parmesan and the ribeye steak. They and the bread were all delicious, cheap (especially compared to austin!), and came in ample portions. This was probably one of of my favorite meals in a while, and I wasn't expecting it from a small town restaurant next to my hotel. The service was also great with an extremely friendly staff! The only real downside is that they don't serve alcohol, but they are BYOB. They do have wine glasses and a corkscrew, so make sure to grab a bottle of wine beforehand!
