I love visiting Hacienda because it feels like you are on vacation! The beautiful patio with a bar, decorative lights and fake palm trees are enough to transport me temporarily to Margaritaville. (The margaritas, by the way, are excellent.)
Go inside and find an extremely colorful group of disjointed rooms that look like the result of many small additions. Regardless of where you sit, the food is great and the service is also very good.
Come hungry - the free chips and salsa before the meal usually fill up my table before the meal even arrives. My favorite meal is the spinach Enchilada, a cheesy concoction rich with cheese and served with beans and rice.
This is a great place to go with a group of friends - but be weary that it gets crowded on the weekends. Enjoy!
