    It's an old locals' favorite and a great spot for Margaritas and Mexican food. Their food is authentic and good. They don't take check or card so bring cash. There is an ATM by the front door.

    If you go when the wind is blowing, you can smell the dog food factory which is right down the street.

    Bad service. My meat was still cold, and it was so dark in there I could barley read the menu. If you go, remember to take a flashlight.
