One of my new favorite restaurants in town. Great Tapas and made from scratch margaritas. They have a great two for one special on Margaritas Tuesday-Thursday. The coconut shrimp and Pizzas are amazing. People love the Sangria as well. Definitely worth a stop for dinner.

Getting Around

Instead of using Uber try downloading the InDriver app. It uses the same type of platform but drivers bid for your ride making it about 50% less than Uber sometimes. The only negative is you have to pay cash and no credit. The cars are similar to Uber and same customer service.

Alternative to Uber is InDrive app. Cash only

Instead of Uber try InDrive. Download the app and it works similar to Uber except drivers bid on giving you a ride. Sometimes can be 50% less than Uber and much quicker. Still good quality cars and good customer service the only difference is you have to pay cash.
