We went to lunch at Rita’s and enjoyed it! The chips and both salsas were enjoyable and flavorful. I ordered the chicken burrito chimichanga style. It was delicious and huge! The two of us could have split it. My guy ordered a beef tostada. It looked good but he said it was pedestrian. The once is cute! We would come back again.
