Its located in that old "train car" building close to belvoir.
The I was impressed when they brought three types of "dip" with my chips. A big bottle of "normal" then "kinda hot" then "habanero" [grin]
even gave me spoons to mix my own which I've had a hard time asking for in other places.
Ordered Chili Pablano and it was excellent.
No beer...
Basic mexican restaurant ambiance with mexican cartoons and kids running everywhere was not enjoyable but they had to put me in the "party" room since my wheelchair wouldn't fit anywhere else.
given the chance, I will go back.
I rank them under dos amigos on amnicola.

I'm going to give it a try.
A friend of mine who's about to retire from public life started her working days there back in the day serving ice cream when it was the "Double Dip Depot".
I believe the site recently was the vegetarian outlet called "Country Life" that had been in the old Osborne center in East Ridge for decades.
Hope this enterprise has better luck.

I went late last night after work;
suitably coarse "gravy" you could taste the texture of, had a plate full of enchiladas with huevos rancheras. Place was full of paisanos so I felt right at home.
Bob, did you notice the only other animal in the front windows besides the eagles and 'cocks'?
I was very flattered. "Pollo Rey" goes on the rotation, cervesa or no cervesa.

because of the step up and narrow door I ate at the children's table (or so it seemed)

It was a great big Kenyan LION, yeeaahhhh...!
They need to keep the Christmas decorations up all year to preserve the ambiance I think

Keep in mind, folks, Tsavo is/was a village/town in Kenya/British E. Africa that was infamous for it's man-eating lions.
Buon appetito!
"...the lion sleeps tonight...."
Mind you, not American born lions.
