Description

Casual eatery serving Mexican food - dine in or carry out.

The bar offerings include margaritas and a selection of US and Mexican beers.

The trompe l'oeuil paintings on the wall date from the pizzeria that used to be in the same location. They are supposed to depict Italian scenery, but the countryside they show probably could be somewhere in Mexico.

The TV that's on almost all the time (with the sound off) usually is tuned to a Spanish-language broadcast.

Great happy hour deals
Stop by for happy hour, big 32oz Dos Equis for less than 2 bucks and Margaritas around the same price.    [14 Jul 2007 15:31:30]
