Food scene

This is a walk-up and order fast casual Mexican restaurant and boy is it delicious! We recommend grabbing a few tacos. The fried avocado is our favorite along with the chicken tortilla soup and a margarita or two!

This is our go-to date night location. The food and cocktails are great and the quaint atmosphere can’t be beat. Insider tip: Check out their community hour (AKA cocktail hour) from 4:00-6:00 Monday-Saturday where you can grab cheaper drinks and snacks. A portion of their sales goes toward local schools.
