I went to school with the owner way back when. Then years later I found out he owned it. Tried it, it was great!

I’ve seen this place a million times and always have wanted to try it out, so I did. I ordered the camarones a la diabla. Before that came out, the waitress brought out whole deep fried tortillas that was accompanied by a delicious and very spicy salsa. Let the tame tongued be warned as I’m a big fan of spice. On the table were five different hot sauces. Tapatio, Siete Mares, two habenero sauces, and another hot sauce. All will put you on your ass and that they did. I didn’t mess with the habanero sauces because they’ve done major damage to me. The shrimp came out and it was amazing. $ 10 + tip was definitely worth it. I want to come back and try the octopus and the cocktails. The review ends here, but keep reading for stupidity’s sake. For the most part, the other customers were Mexican, which is definitely a sign for being authentic. However, there was this one group of people that came in, one old white guy, one latina looking lady with a mullet, and her kid also with a mullet. When they first came in, the lady requested that the TV playing El Gordo La Flaca be turned off because it was«distracting» despite other the other customers watching the show. I went about eating my food, and they were talking rather loudly and overheard parts of their conversation. She said«NPR stands for National Petroleum Radio». Interesting. Then she asked the waitress a bazillion stupid questions about the food they were about to order. She also went off on how the Jumex juice they ordered had so-and-so many grams of sugar in it and artificial flavors and colors. The old white guy was going off about lighthouses and how there was a specific word for it, but I don’t remember what it was and I’m trying to google it right now but can’t find an answer. I’m guessing it’s a) an über obscure word and b) no one gives a shit. The little kid barely blinked and had a Children of the Corn look about him all the time. I’m guessing he was home schooled.
