    Great great food, but the place is extremely, extremely understaffed for a Friday nights. One waiters for the full place. Child's chicken nuggets arrived much after our food, and extra tart. never

    Started by the Murguia family decades ago, this restaurant catered Lazar and Rossetti’s wedding. Among its specialties: chile gueritos (shrimp-stuffed chiles) and octopus ceviche.

    Try the fish tacos! Deep fried or grilled! Either way, they're amazing!

    Yellow peppers stuffed with shrimp are a speciality and may just be the best thing you ever eat
