I liked the place itself, however, we did have problems with the communication part so that was a bit of a bummer. I normally communicate with paper/pen if the server does not know sign language, but my friend is able to communicate a bit via lip reading and hearing aids. The patio was right next to highway 99 which can get extremely loud so she was struggling to understand the server and the factors like sun, server talking rapidly about different things, walking away while still talking, etc. I could sense that she was a bit frustrated with trying to understand the server.

However, I'll still come back again to this place and give it another try to see if another server is more Deaf-friendly and  
less of a communication barrier when I use paper/pen 100% of the time during my next visit.
