In the mood for Mexican? You'll get plenty here. This family-run diner serves up heaping portions of housemade dishes. The restaurant's divided into three rooms, one of which is a favorite of couples because of its vintage booths and dim lighting. While it can get pretty busy at dinner on the weekends, there's rarely a wait for a table.
