Chili pepper lights border the ceiling and accent the entrance while sombreros hang on the walls. With similar lunch and dinner menus, the predictable fajitas may be relied upon for a zesty twist and cayenne flavor. Combination plates include a choice of three items. The chilies are green Californians, both sweet and flavorful, for the Relleno lovers. All dinners include refried beans and rice and the portions are generous. Wine and beer is available.
