"Hands down the best food in Eureka Springs. The cast iron tacos are really something special (we had beef and potato with Chipotle, pork with avocado). The street corn is also delicious and has a nice little kick to it. Additionally, the staff is incredibly friendly and very helpful.
10/10 would recommend. We will return when in the area!"

"Best food in Eureka Springs!! I cannot stress enough how wonderful of an experiment we had! We were greeted by the chef and owner herself and gave us amazing taco recommendations. Atmosphere was amazing with a beautiful and relaxing waterfall next to the outdoor seating. Food was so good we took a quesadilla to go!"
