**** (4 stars)
It sounds like the evening tasting menu here would be really interesting. We stopped for lunch on our way through town, and the offerings were somewhat limited. The most interesting item was the plate of two tacos, one pibil, and one chicken, which were both excellent. Their take on a Margarita is interesting.
Access is off the parking lot. You order at the counter. Plenty of outdoor seating, but only a couple of tables inside.
