Located in Houston's Montrose neighborhood, the restaurant has been described as "an institution for the all-night crowd looking for a late-night/early-morning hangover cure".[2] The menu includes alambres, chilaquiles, enchiladas, huevos rancheros, mole sauce, quesadillas, Mediterranean-style salmon, tortilla-crusted snapper, tamales, and pecan cheesecake. The drink menu has approximately 60 tequilas and 20 margarita varieties.[2]
