Here are a few of the most recent reviews from Trip Advisor users:
My husband and I were staying at a nearby hotel and gave this place a try! Wow!! The owner/waitstaff/ manager were amazing, friendly and accommodating. The food was so fresh! Tasted like I just made it in my own kitchen! We will definitely come back when in the area
Banana split was to die for!
This place was amazing! Our entire party could barely finish our food, there was so much (but we made sure to leave room for dessert!). We weren’t sure how busy it was going to be since it was a Friday night but we were seated quickly and the service was above and beyond. Our 11 month old started to get a little fussy, of course as soon as the food came out like it always seems to happen, but they were so great at interacting with him making funny faces with him as they walked by or even bringing out a light up pumpkin to distract him!
This restaurant has become an absolute must for any future visits!,
We popped in for dinner on a weekday in September and saw it was busy so we thought it would be good and it was. We enjoyed our meal but were disappointed we didn't leave room for dessert. Next table had ice cream sundays that looked increadable. Next time i'll leave room.
This is the hidden gem of the crest! Their food is the best mexican I have ever had! Don’t skip the street tacos!
Absolutely scrumptious food (Grilled Fish & Grilled Shrimp tacos were out of this world😋) and amazing service! Our server, Sierra, was terrific! We will definitely be back.
