This is definitely a staple and one of the best restaurants to really uphold the influence and standards for the community. This is coming from a local… going on 32 and lived here since I was 5. They are one of a kind. I absolutely love the art and atmosphere. This bar is a an atmosphere like no other. Seth and Cat were absolutely amazing and offered wonderful customer service! If you get the chance I would recommend asking for them because they were also so knowledgeable about every drink and all of the food.

It was a hidden gem of Mexican Fusion on a side street!
Walking into El Weirdo feels like stepping into a vibrant celebration of creativity and flavor. This Mexican fusion restaurant has managed to create something truly special that appeals to both locals and visitors alike.
The moment you enter, you're enveloped by the restaurant's unique aesthetic. Local artists have transformed the space into an eclectic wonderland that feels both whimsical and welcoming. Every corner offers something new to discover, creating an atmosphere that's as nourishing to the soul as the food is to the body.
Speaking of food, El Weirdo's approach to Mexican fusion is nothing short of inspired. Their menu presents fresh interpretations of classic dishes, reimagined with innovative flavor combinations that somehow manage to honor tradition while blazing new culinary trails. Each bite was an absolute delight – bold, balanced, and beautifully presented.
The service deserves special mention as well. Our host and server were attentive, knowledgeable, and moved with an efficiency that meant we did not waited long, despite the restaurant being quite busy.
Perhaps the most unexpected highlight of our visit was stumbling upon their Wednesday night Bingo event. The bingo caller's enthusiastic performance added an extra layer of entertainment to our evening, turning a simple dinner into a memorable experience filled with laughter and fun.
El Weirdo has mastered that rare combination of exceptional food, vibrant atmosphere, and attentive service that makes a restaurant truly outstanding. Whether you're a local looking for your new favorite spot or a visitor seeking an authentic yet innovative dining experience, El Weirdo delivers unforgettable food and memories. We'll certainly be back next time we're in town!

Simply marvelous! A feast for the eyes and the belly. I had the veggie tacos. Super delicious. I got two, hoping to save one for later... but later ended up being a few minutes. I will definitely be back when I'm in the area!!
