Another Mexican Restaurant

 La Bamba used to have a line and they'd take orders how you wanted your tacos.

They've become more upscale, but very reasonable lunch prices still! Waitresses were very helpful and the food just right. We sat as far away from the speakers as possible. Which meant we were right by the front door and the hostess station. So when I mentioned to my friend that another Mexican restaurant had a salsa bar, the waitress came right over with 2 more kind of salsa for us. We were being listened to!

Unfortunately the menu included my dish to have a taco, but it wasn't brought. The waitress came back and tried the trick of holding her finger over the part where it said I got a taco with this dish. Then she said, oh, they haven't changed the menu yet. But within a few minutes I got a taco!

And they still have La Tienda...the grocery store!




There's a small bar, and the waitresses wanted us to come back and try their new special, "Margabeerita." Since it has beer in with some other things (it's red looking) I declined. I'll take regular Margaritas.

The spices were tempting, but we couldn't read the date to sell by.




This  is definitely the go-to place for Pinatas!
