I also had the lamb taco which was good, it had green olives on it. The last taco I had was the shrimp taco. It was great and had a nice grilled taste. Our table shared a trio app and the guacamole was awesome. They had a mystery beer on the menu that someone at our table tried and they received Miller High Life. Great atmosphere and great food.”
