Editorial Review

Better than sex ... Tex-Mex. The slogan sums it up. How many other places serve exotic flowers atop their margs? The interior comes to life with large-scale paintings of Frida Kahlo popping off the blood-red and sun-yellow walls. Outside is a courtyard entangled with greenery to create the ambiance of a tropical getaway. Health-consciousness is a priority on the menu. It's reverse psychology to get the body-conscious regulars to eat more.
