    The margaritas here were a bit strong for me but everyone else I was with really loved them. The burger selection was also great and mine was delicious! Overall I recommend.

    You might not realize you want a Tex-Mex hamburger until you go here. Try any of their Angus beef burgers and follow it up with a shake made from Blue Bell ice cream. Read more

    This place is family-friendly, but *not* kid-friendly. There's no kids menu and so myself + 2 kids under five totaled a $50 dinner after tip. An $8 hot dog? $5 for milk? Be warned if you bring kids.

    The pitchers of mixed drinks are a total rip-off. A pitcher is served with smaller glasses which pour 6 glasses or 4 regular glasses. 4 regular margaritas = $8/each or $36. A Pitcher costs $39.

    The burger was pretty good. Get the onion rings. If you like lighter, flaky onion rings, you'll love these.

    Lamburguesa (lamb burger) was great! Try their avocado lime dressing even if you don't order a side salad.

    The best tip I can give anyone is to add tostada to your burger, you won't regret it!

    The Chori-Pica burger is yummy, but the chorizo oil soaks the bottom bun :/
