if you’re there on a saturday, perusing their menu is an easy fix: go for their daily special, the goat barbacoa. juicy, rich, braised goat with the perfect tang of fresh salsa. pair it with a margarita if you’re feeling it (and def get one if you’re not—you’ll be feeling like you can dance all night long after their prickly pear margarita)!
