About this business

The sombreros and parrots, mixed with the Mexican music in the background, could fool diners into thinking they stepped into a fiesta. This good old-fashioned restaurant is serious about its Mexican food, served with a progressive touch. From breakfasts of huevos, rancheros or migas to dinners of grilled chicken, shrimp, fajitas and more, the food here does not fail to satisfy. The atmosphere is casual; the patio is terrific and the hot sauce is great.

This has been at least a once a week stop for me for about a year now. I voiced a complaint with a manager over the phone just now and adviced him the NEW help behind the bar needed some training. Was told Thank You and hung up on. Me no come back! No problem, can find a new place to stop on Monday evening after work now....
