This is just for take out but they have great Tacos! Don't bother with the salsa since it's likely Pace from a jar. Be ready to look up Spanish words for meats on your phone since the menu is only in Spanish. This is walking distance from my house

Usually they have pretty strong Margaritas. Good food but not as good as Fogatas. Much closer though.

Great food! Entire menu is in Spanish so if that will freak you out better try somewhere else. I like the Tortas and Gorditas but everything is good. FYI if you order a coke they will give you a bottle of coke not a free unlimited refill drink also they have no liquor license so beer only.

This place is a must see! Lots of authentic food choices, some shopping, entertainers preform every day. There is also a fun arcade if you have kids! My favorite place that you would probably never hear of without a local telling you! I like to go when Beyond Wings circus is preforming so check the calendar online for what is going on. Usually a free salsa lesson and dancing Thursday nights.

Love this place. If you have a car drive over to check it out on Thurs-Saturday Call ahead if you want to be sure to get a good seat for the live music then get ready for singing and table slapping Irish tunes! Better make sure to get the scotch eggs too. I love the fish and chips but everything is good!
