Wide variety of food and and a great happy hour and sunday brunch menu. This restaurant has a prime location downtown and stays open late.

Las Casuelas Terraza

A beautiful mexican restaurant with authentic and great tasting food and a HUGE menu of margaritas. TIP: request a table on the patio if it's not too hot out, the mango and strawberry margaritas are on point and the tostada suprema is a perfect plate to split for two.
