If you're in the mood for Mexican, stop in this cozy restaurant where the food is always hot (in the temperature sense–you can decide your spice level) and hearty. The classic Mexican decor and friendly service fit the homey, laidback vibe. You'll find everyone from families to construction workers and casual dates stopping in for a sure-bet bite to eat and raved-about cocktails. Next door, the bar, a.k.a. Arlington Gardens, offers the same Mexican fare plus a grill menu featuring the typical burgers, hot dogs and chili; the bar side seats up to 75 people in a more contemporary setting.
