Description:
- In Short
Follow the dusty road past the saloon, schoolhouse and candy store in the Old Town San Dieg Historic State Park to find this adobe-style restaurant. Couples and families gather around low wood tables for plates of burritos, enchiladas or shrimp specials. Also popular are the savory crepes filled with chicken and mushrooms - a dish not so readily available in neighboring Mexican spots. On weekend nights there's live entertainment by local Mexican musicians.
