Before long, you will be addressing a plate full of the Tex-Mex standard of your choice. Or try any of the variations on barbecued chicken-the chalupas of this variety are especially tasty. Entrees make this a fairly inexpensive spot, provided you do not get carried away on the margaritas.

Your sign about vegans was not only in poor taste, it was factually incorrect. Really, you deserve to be shut down.

The food and atmosphere are fantastic. The Thursday Ritas on the Patio were a personal favorite as I lived across the street.

Horrible service. It started when we walked in, we had never been, didn’t know we should seat ourselves. After a few minutes of walking in, standing there, I finally asked, “excuse me?, do we sit ourselves?” The 3 people behind the counter responded yes. The restaurant was empty, we were one of two families there. Slow service on drinks and food.
