    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 the meal you're getting has pulled pork as an option, GET IT. It's awesome and practically melts in your mouth.
