Catfish and Ritas. Sometimes a line re: Harvard Parents weekends. Aim for the bar, ask to sit on the Ground floor.

Absolutely every time we visit here the service/food/drinks/atmosphere is above par. I don't think we've ever had a spotty meal or service here. I also love the variety of vegetarian options and recommend you try the black bean empanadas or the veggie fajitas.
