This is the best salsa in the world. It is the freshest tasting there is. You will love it. The trio del fuego is my favorite.

Just another chain resturant, food, decour, and service leads you to be in any one of their sites anywhere. But they have the best salsa by far over any other resturaunt.

More chain-like than la Fuente, but still good. The servings are filling and the atmosphere is a little cheezy, but ignorable. The bar is usually busy at night. Their margaritas are advertized as being wonderfull, I think they are moderate.

I am fairly impressed with the service and food here. Nothing too exciting, but definately better than a family restaurant like Perkins. Good atmosphere to sit and chat with friends while munching on tortilla chips and salsa!

This is a Mexican restaurant, and it is over by Hollywood Video so you're sure to see it. Nothing exciting there, average, and people like to go there to celebrate events.
