It is along the canal. We sat on the patio, and were able to watch and hear the drivers of the gondolas sing. Our party all ordered the Mexico City Chicken Enchiladas (Three corn enchiladas rolled with grilled chicken, topped with queso fresco and one of the chefs special sauce). I had the mild. It was served with cilantro rice and black beans ($14). It was very good. The service was good.

This place has the best margaritas hands down! Their menu even says they have won awards, etc. I think the key is that they use fresh-squeezed lime juice. Anyway, the food was truly wonderful. I always like to try chile rellenos at any new Mexican place I go to, and this had one of the best chile rellenos I have ever had. The chile was fresh, lightly breaded and sautéed, and stuffed with some kind of yummy cheese that had been mixed with just a little bit of nuts and dried fruit. WOW! Taste-bud delight! Also, I recommend that you ask for a table on the Grand Canal, as you can hear/see the gondoliers sing as they pass.
