| - We have friends who come into town irregularly, but we always go here for lunch. Even with the pouring-down rain, the view was impressive. Their lunch menu is extensive and cost-saving.
The food is NOT the typical Mexican food; they specialize in food from other areas, rather than just the Tex-Cali-Mex dishes. Two of us had tongue with peppers and onions (Lengua a Michoacan)), a default meal for both, a third had a creamy chicken (Pollo con Rajas Y Crema) entree, and I had shrimp in a spicy sauce (Camarones Serandeados). The good was excellent, as usual. Even with the downsized lunch portions, we took some good home.
The service was mostly good, with our drinks being refilled repeatedly.
When it came time for dessert, we asked about a flaming dish we'd seen at another table; they said it was fried ice cream. We ordered one to share. At this point, the service slacked off a bit, with us having to ask for spoons and plates.
Behind the bar (which as also has the view) there are a multitude of empty bottles of tequila/mezcal, artfully arranged.
I highly recommend this restaurant if you are in the southeastern part of the valley. The views are wonderful, especially at sunset, the lunch specials are good until 5pm, and the food is deliciously unexpected.
