Papier-mâché toucans add a south-of-the-border feel to the long, U-shaped bar and balcony dining area. Decor includes beer and tequila logos on neon signs, banners, flags and umbrellas. The menu includes quesadillas, tacos, flautas and enchiladas, as well as entrees such as cheese- and chili-stuffed chicken, skirt steak with salsa and chicken Oaxaca--baked in a paper bag, covered in mushrooms and bathed in spicy red sauce.

Great food!
by Porkchop107
Something must have changed.....older reviews comment on bad, spicy food. I don't like spicy food and I loved this! Had a combo platter and every thing tasted different, not all the same. Great drinks. Husband had a daquiri and was the best he ever had. Friendly waitress and all staff attentive. Fun to people watch over the balcony.
- Pros: very tasty food and lots of people having fun
- Cons: loud

Good food better Ritas!
by srmarie
I used to hate the food here. Not sure if there was a ownership change or a new chef/staff but my lunch Sat was delicious. Steak fajitas came out hot and tons of meat and veggies. Our waitress was very attentive and the bussers were constantlly clearing glasses and plates and re-filling our water...which you need for the STRONG ritas! I will go back again aand again.
- Pros: Yummy salsa/ Ritas!/ and Good People Watching
