I love the dive bar atmosphere but do not go for the food. I got the beef tacos and they were so soggy it was so messy and I feel just gross after eating that. Again love the atmosphere for just drinks, it’s fun and vibrant.

            Was raised in Westport Connecticut, and we would get off the train either. we go to Mario's place or viva Zapata, and I can honestly say it's the best Mexican food this side of the border
