    Fresh Ceviche

    Great food. Great service. Tasty salsa bar. Relaxing patio. Attention to detail is a step above.

If I could, would give this 3.5 stars. Know before you go, you have to order at the bar. I didn't know, so I had to ask, but when I asked the bartender I got the sense he had to make that clear frequently which I get can be annoying, but he wasn't the friendliest when answering my question or taking my order. Meanwhile another bartender on the other end of the bar was audibly nicer. Maybe it was my bartender's demeanor or maybe the price tag, but I ordered and closed out my tab. Made my way over to my table with a cocktail and water (also self serve, don't ask) to await my food. The Paloma was strong but not particularly tasty. Luckily the food came out shortly after. The stars of the show were the curried cauliflower tacos that were much tastier and filling than expected and made me wish they were always on the menu. Runner up was the queso fundido even though it was a bit hard on the edges and required some scraping. Can't remember if the chips came with the queso or the ceviche but as someone that would order chips and salsa as one of my last bites on earth... these chips were very disappointing. Not because they tasted, bad but because they were the hardest chips I've ever had in my life. While this was bad, the ceviche was worse. Again not because of flavor but because of texture. The shrimp was overdone and I had literally just had better seafood minutes before as I was basically restaurant hoping fueling up on appetizers to sample a bit of everything. I'd come back for the ambiance, maybe a drink. Would order other bites but not come here hungry as it seems hit or miss.

The service is great, and the guys on board this food truck will get you hooked up for some very reasonable prices. Be aware: cash only! While the tacos are great and loaded with protein and classic toppings, the Mexican hot dog is one of their specialties and very tasty! It's also a fantastic value. The ambiance isn't much as it's a food truck in a grocery store parking lot, though they do have a few picnic tables available. This is a great spot to grab and go and eat at home. I saw another review about the food not holding up if you take it away, but I completely disagree with that! Great stop if you're visiting or passing through the area!

I'm so glad we did. I ordered the classic - Beans, Rice, and Cheese or BRC for short along with a Mexican Coke. I also tried the green hot sauce which was just the right amount of spice. Service was friendly and fast and we popped up around lunch time and as we were waiting for our food, we noticed it became busier. So perfect timing for us! Nothing too romantic surrounding the truck, I mean, you are in a parking lot but there was a nice picnic bench with some shade from a large tree. I would def. stop by again without hesitation.

    We had a really nice dinner here with fresh produce and delicious proteins…read more We walked in at about 5pm and got a table easily on a summer Wednesday evening, but by the time we left there was a crowd on the sidewalk waiting for a table. We started with the beet salad and burrata salad. I don't eat cheese so we got the cheese on the side for the beet salad - and it was delicious with the pea sprouts and light dressing. My son and husband also really enjoyed the burrata salad. For my entree I had the burger and fries. The fries were a bit soft for my liking, but the burger was good. My son really liked the halibut on a bed of corn hash? We forgot what the menu described the corn as, but my son loved the corn kernels with the corn "hash" under it. He probably would have licked the bowl clean if we were at home. Overall a solid meal, and we may return tomorrow if we can get in early enough to not need to wait.

Boon eat + drink is a modern farm to table restaurant nestled in downtown. They have a rotating seasonal menu using extremely fresh ingredients. They don't take reservations and there was a crowd forming at 5:30, the service was impeccable. Katie and I shared the grilled asparagus tahini as an app. Soooo good, the roasted chickpeas added a perfect crunch. The steak was perfectly cooked and seasoned, and I loved the chimichurri.

I've been meaning to stop by and…read moregive this place a try since a friend mentioned that this is where his favorite super burritos are made. The restaurant is spacious and clean. One wall is filled with refrigerated drinks but the space is a restaurant, not a market. We met Rosa, the owner, and she's the kind of person who makes you feel like you've known her your entire life. She is very friendly, outgoing and has deep roots in the community. We knew many of the same families growing up here. She has owned the restaurant for 20 years. Their menu is quite extensive but since the burrito was so highly recommended, we had to give it a try. We ordered two super burritos, one with grilled chicken along with a wet chicken chile verde burrito. A basket of thick tortilla chips and two salsas were included with our order. Everything tasted fresh and homemade. The chicken chile verde had wonderful flavor and my husband especially loved the green sauce on top, not overly tangy like some. He would definitely order it again. My grilled chicken burrito was outstanding. The chicken was moist and I loved the whole beans and rice inside (I requested whole beans and no sour cream). It was definitely one of the better super burritos I've had. We love supporting local businesses so we are looking forward to trying other items on their menu but it will be hard to stray away from their super burritos. Easy parking on the street or in the lot.

The owner sat us and…read moresuggested some sugar free drinks for me as I told him I really wanted a cocktail but couldn't have any sugar. I went with a seltzer citrus infused gin. It was delish but I forgot to take a photo. We started with pork belly tacos and fried ravioli. Both were outstanding but those ravs and dipping marinara are making my mouth water even now! My husband had the chop, my youngest the salmon and my other son and I had the chicken. Wow, wow wow! That pounded out chicken was juicy on the inside while the crust was crispy and not at all greasy. The mash was handmade and that Texas gravy? Your Memaw would be speechless! It was hands down the best white gravy I've ever had. My husband gave me a bite of his chop and it was sinfully delish! My son with the salmon barely spoke during the meal as he thoroughly enjoyed his dish. To top off this wonderful dining experience, the owner gave my husband and I a nice bottle of local wine and bought my son's drinks when we informed him that our youngest son was leaving for the Army that Sunday. He spoke to my other son in great length about culinary arts and truly made us feel at home. Please, if you are in the area do yourself a favor and stop into this gem of a restaurant. The staff and owner were awesome, food is off the hook good and the patio is just beautiful. They are hoping to open the restaurant floor this fall.

The rules were clear, even if the dog barked just once, it would be removed. My dog was next to my husband's backpack happily eating her chewy under the table when she was provoked with a pointing finger and my husband was asked what was in his backpack. What? At this point my sweet dog would be defending my husband and her treat. Thank goodness my tasty wine arrived about then. When we arrived, the woman had angrily mentioned staff had been bitten and "no dogs" signs were posted. I'm guessing she was the staff bitten. At any rate, dogs are barely tolerated.
