This place is pretty good for breakfast, but beware of the long wait for brunch. It's on the "hippie" end of the spectrum, but great service and some good gluten-free options.

Great margaritas. Good food. Do not expect authentic Mexican food, but it's not "text mex" either. Great atmosphere. Busy almost always, so expect a wait unless you go really early.

Solid BBQ. Best thing about this place is that you order you meat and then it's buffet for all the sides. You can go back as many times as you want!

Great in the warmer months because it's all outdoor seating. It's also BYOB. Everything I've had here has been great. The fries and the onion rings are out of this world. Huge though, so plan to share

I typically avoid this place on the weekend because it's overrun, but if you go early it's a great place to get a really well made cocktail. And it's in an actual tunnel!
