Description
The name says it all. Located just off I-25 in a well-hidden spot, this tiny bar offers a perfect view of the city right outside its door. The quiet neighborhood hangout is full of homemade signs forbidding credit cards, drugs and other troublemakers, but Lino Ortiz (the friendly face you'll find behind the bar seven nights a week) just wants you to stay for a drink. No fancy stuff here -- Budweiser is the one and only draft, and basic cocktails are mixed with bottled soda -- but regulars say Ortiz's margaritas and conversation are reasons to stop by. With no food, no games and no modern distractions, Zitro Cityview Tavern's handful of bar stools and tables are for thinking and drinking.
