Dare I leave another tip on the Sangria Swirl! The Happy Hour Appetizers are good too. Get there early, it draws a crowd. For Everyone's safety, Please Don't Drink and Drive.

My favorite thing to order here is their enchiladas. All of them are a great choice. Their papas are also their best side.

I wish this place was closer to where I live- it's terrific! Great food, great servers, pleasant atmosphere. If I get back to that area, I will definitely go again.

So I'll say some rather unknown things about the menu. A hidden menu if you will. You can replace any item of your order with any item. Their French fries are excellent, suprisingly.

Good deals on Happy Hour menu from 3:00-7:00 daily. All the other meals were very good.

The chicken w zucchini is delicious. Very flavorful sauce and just spicy enough. I always get rice and broccoli as my sides.

Try the taco/enchilada combo w/papas con chile. Shredded beef taco with avocado enchilada w/cream sauce is best IMHO. Yum!
