Good Mexican good. Mama Avila's Chicken Soup is among the best! Friendly service . Easy take out .
avilas tortilla soup with condiment plate fresh jalpenos cilantro and cheese . by far the best
The chicken soup is even better as leftovers. Something about letting it sit for a day makes it awesome.
Bartender Paco is a gentleman and always very accommodating ????????
The children who work here are completely apathetic and narcissistic. At least try and like your job.
Fish ceviche is extremely delicious, great service!!
They moved locations and are now located in the former Oyster 's building. Great space, atmosphere and food. I enjoy the Shrimp Baha Bowl.

Sometimes it's a little sticky and sometimes a little smelly due to age, but it's comfortable. Feels like a neighborhood theater even though it shows the most recent movies. - Henry Abrams
