AAA Diamond Inspector Notes

This local favorite has been serving fresh Mexican food in a fun setting since 1972. A large patio is a welcoming spot, featuring a fire pit to gather around on a cool night. Traditional fare includes Mexican pizza, sizzling fajitas, street tacos or a wide variety of burritos. Delicious desserts include deep-fried ice cream, churros or flan.
