This time, the food made me so sick that I was up most of the night with severe stomach pains and have had diarrhea all day. I suspect the egg rolls because while they tasted good, they were extremely greasy. Don't think I'll be coming back. The stomach pains were so severe that I was sweating and felt like I might pass out. And my wife also had a bad reaction to the food up in the middle of the night in the bathroom. Fortunately, she did not have to endure the stomach pain.

Do not give this place your business! They denied service to a friend of mine who is a combat vet with a licensed service dog. For the record, it is a violation of the ADA to deny service to a person with a service dog, just like it is illegal to deny someone in a wheelchair, or with a cane, or with a prosthetic limb, or any other disability. THIS IS NOT OK! People, especially in the service industry, need to know the law and follow it! read more

The pulled pork was so flavorful it made me question my plain-chicken era. The brisket? Fork-optional tender. And the mac and cheese was so creamy it deserves its own zip code. But the real villain?

I know you're wondering why we got fish, but I wanted something light! It didn't taste fishy and was yummy for a random joint in Cortez. The jala bites were a personal favorite, as they seemed homemade. It wasn't a classic jalapeno-cream cheese situation, but instead involved chopped jalapenos, nacho cheese, and it was all fried with a crispy outer shell. I'd come back for those alone! I'd definitely come back and try more. The price was fantastic too.
