Mexican heart and soul

by george l at Citysearch

i am close to this place but can tell you that the elote staff love taking care of their peeps. they have turned this place around from mere "just another hang out place" to a destination place on union ave!!

the back yard is delightful and worth the trip.

margaritas are strong and wont break your bank account. i strongly suggest checking it out!
