In a phrase: tequila and Tex-Mex. That sums up the appeal of this establishment. Cactus plants abound at this bright, turquoise-and-yellow-hued establishment and the menu includes standard Mexican fare. Tequila is the beverage of choice with several possbilities, including shots of tequila followed with a 'Sangria' chaser made of hot sauce, tomato, orange and lime juices and tequila martinis, complete with olives stuffed with jalapeno peppers.
