    Where is the best Mexican food

    That is right, the original Liberty Bar was on Josephine. Too bad it closed, I guess that building finally fell over! Next time I am in SA I will check out the new location. THX for the heads-up.

    Where is the best Mexican food

    NEVER been to El Mirador on South St. Mary's, will try that one next time I am in SA. I LOVE the local places, thanks for the tip. Speaking of which, but not Mexican food, is the infamous Liberty Bar still there? Or did the building finally lean over so far that it fell? Have been to the...

But no town over 5,000 and...

    Where is the best Mexican food

    MATT - Juan in a Million is where the Mexican Mafia hang out on the East Side. But luckily they do not shoot Gringos on Sunday morning. Been good, been busy. There are lots better places for Weekend MX Brunch than that questionable Dive. Try Polvos on South First next time; shorter wait...

    Where is the best Mexican food

    THIS is great information folks, in the next month or so I would like to summarize everyone's choices, maybe it could be a guide for those traveling to games starting this fall.
