Cory HealyDecember 17, 2012Great beer on tap, wonderful art and good live music! The dude who said "maybe next time I'll try something more authentic?" after ordering flatbread and pizza at a Mex restaurant, WTF is you doing?
Greg BowmanAugust 21, 2012Wow!!!! The agave margarita is awesome, I taste tequila, not sweet juice. Get the flat bread, maybe the Hot Buzz or the Chupacabra.. Also try to sit over by the oven guys, it's fun to watch.
Great flavors from the southwest. Try the ceviche, mussels, and the burger is great.
Greg TumbarelloJune 19, 2012Red Newt Cellars Circle Riesling by the glass - perfect touch of sweetness and from one of the top Riesling Producers in the Finger Lakes- Eric HinmanNovember 14, 2014Mushroom quesadilla, wood fire roasted cauliflower, guacamole with salmon. All incredible!
- Megan GilbrideMay 13, 2015Tasty organic healthy food, great cocktails, love the atmosphere and decor
Emily DowdApril 14, 2013The juevos rancheros are amazing! I get them every time! Plus an agava Margarita. And a Mimosa. :)
- Marc PhillipsNovember 4, 2012To be honest, the flatbreads weren't as amazing as all of my friends led me to believe. $20 for a small pizza and a beer is also pricy. Maybe next time I'll try something more authentic?
This place is phenomenal. One of the best brunches I have ever had. The Benedictos is incredible!
The tuna tostada is delicious - highly recommend trying it!
Agava burger is yummy! The Rita is an awesome flat bread pizza. I have never had anything bad!
Great food, service and they play modest mouse? How can it be beat
Vote for Jake!! Abolish time restriction on adult beverages!! Yes to 11am Bloody Maria's!!
Junghee ParkAugust 25, 2012I can't believe that this kind of restaurants is in ithaca. IMPRESSIVE!!!
If you're not eating here you have a screw loose somewhere...
Vaidehi KJuly 11, 2015Overly hyped place with terrible service. We never got our appetizers and eventually had to cancel them. The chicken was overcooked too. But as a saving grace, the desserts were quite delicious.

"The wild mushroom ravioli is to die for! The cedar plank salmon is also amazing. Get the Mayan chocolate pudding for dessert - it's got a nice habanero kick!"
