Short version:

Definitely a do-over. Very nice!

Long version:

We had lunch there yesterday, very nice! We were seated immediately, and had a nice view of the lake across the street. The waitress was very helpful and attentive, A/C was tuned nicely, and the service was very quick. They also did a very nice job of remodeling the place. It's not fancy, but they get the point across and end up with a very nice atmosphere.

The chips and salsa were top notch. I could enjoy myself with just a few servings of the chips and salsa.

I had the burrito, and I think my wife had the enchiladas. The food was very tasty, but it was fairly spicy, so beware. It'd be nice if they had one or two gringo selections too.

The next table over was getting the tableside guacamole, and that definitely looked like fun. Maybe next time.

We did get drink refills, but I didn't scrutinize the bill closely enough to see if we got charged for it. If they do charge, that would be kind of a sneaky trick though, particularly since soda typically has a huge markup in the first place, and the glasses were relatively small.

Great:
Waitstaff, service speed, food, chips+salsa

Good:
Atmosphere

So-So:
Soda glasses were small (need to check on drink refills too)

Bad:
Nothing I can think of
