Description

A massive bar with solid attempts at high-end Mexican food. The queso fundido, melted cheese mixed with chorizo, will make you forsake its Tex-Mex brother forever. More tequila options than you'll be able to handle, so drink wisely! Not into Mexican anything? Watch sports on the many big-screen TVs.
