    This restaurant was built on the spot of the burned ruins of José Manuel Machado family's three mansions, which burned to the ground in 1858. He was one of the first settlers of Old Town in 1781.

    Awesome chips and salsa. Woman's bathroom was dirty. If You log onto yelp you will get one free glass of House wine. Overall the food was good.

    This is a sorry replacement for Casa de Pico when the management of Old Town State Park changed. Decidedly gringo-ized food and drink.

    Service was a little slow even though they weren't too packed. The food (enchiladas rancheras, rice, beans) was bland and over-priced. The chicken tortilla soup was decent and the portion was big.

    Not impressed at all! Slow service, high prices for food that was served 30 minutes after being ordered. Plus the portions were very skimpy! I do not recommend this place.
