Fun Place with Good Beer and Food This brewery/restaurant is a fun place to go. As the name implies, it has some decor related to Mexican Luchador wrestlers, but don't expect the staff to be wearing those outfits or live wrestling on the restaurant floor. They have two locations and brew different beers at each. When you enter, you see the tap wall and beer info. Many to choose from with good descriptions and prices. No problem getting samples. I had to start with a Mocha en la Cabeza ($7.00), a nitro stout with great flavor and smooth as silk. My wife had a soda. The bartender scans in your credit card to run a tab and you pay when you leave. After getting our beverages, we walk over to this totally unique indoor food truck. The menu is quite extensive at very reasonable prices. My wife ordered one each of the Taco Al Pastor and Taco de Picadillo ($2.75 each). I ordered the Carne Asada Fries ($9.25). The food truck counter person takes your name and adds your order on your tab. We were given a buzzer that went off when our food was ready and we picked up our food at the food truck. At this point, I've finished my stout and returned with a Toasted & Roasted ($7.00) brown ale. Nice malt and caramel flavors and accompanied the food well. Both tacos were excellent with way more meat than you typically get in a taco. The Carne Asada Fries is a large order with nice flavors. The meat has a flavor that we find to be unique to the southwest and is much more flavorful that what we usually get in the midwest. The pico, crema, queso, cilantro topping was great, but I wished there was more meat to match the amount of crispy, tasty fries. Diners clear their own tables with a tray return and waste bin on the poster wall. A self serve water station is also there. Never rushed to leave, stay as long as you like, watch some tv, enjoy some more brew or food and when ready to leave, go to the counter and they finalize your tab. They do have online ordering for To-Go's. I wish we had one of these near our home so we could...

Read moreWe had dinner at this restaurant because it was across the parking lot from our hotel. We were so glad we did! The staff were all super friendly and helpful. Really good selection of beer. The food was excellent. We had the gordita pollo asado taco. At first, we thought it didn’t look very big, but the shell was not your usual taco shell. It was masa that, while shaped like a taco shell, was thicker and more substantial. The shell was stuffed with the pollo asado mix, cheese, lettuce, etc. It was plenty big enough. One of us is a vegetarian, so had the nachos with veggie beans as well as the guac with chips. We added a side of frijoles for me (the beans had meat), and they were some of the best beans I have ever had. We would have liked a better selection of salsa but what they had was tasty. Oh yes, the beer was really delicious! The interior is open concept seating, but people seemed to pay attention to safe spacing. There was also a large outdoor seating area with misters. Lots of people out there even though it was a 100+ day. If you like Lucha Libre there were three TVs showing videos of that. This is an excellent choice for lunch, dinner, beer; a really fun and tasty time out. We wish we had more reasons to go to this area as we would...
