Tableside guacamole, chicken enchiladas, and the shrimp quesadillas are faves. When they have the special with the eggplant covered in shrimp and tequila cream, that's amazing! Never had anything bad.

If you drink a lot of margaritas & plan to go back, which you will cuz the margaritas are delicious, ask about the go cup option!
