That's a classic comida corrida restaurant. I've eaten there many times and always loved it.

I go with her, we especially like the 10 year old bartender there, makes a mean margarita!

Okay, where is this Las Brisas place! Sounds good....what with the "inexpensive" word in there!

**Anna** · 12-18-2008

Las Brisas is another favorite, for sure. I always get the fish skewer there, which is delicious and very good value for money.

Also try El Faisan y El Venado on the highway close to Juarez for some good authentic Yucatecan food.

Las Brisas is on the corner of 4th street and 10th Avenue.

I like the grilled fish dinner with the yummy garlic butter sauce.

Geesh, I'm so ready for vacation..........

Be sure to try it! Sharon (Queencityfan) and I went there for dinner after we had been at La Taberna for drinks. We ordered the mariscos (seafood) platter and it was so gooood! The highlight of the dinner was the ten-year old bartender. He makes some delicious margaritas and piña coladas. Also, he is very generous with shots of tequila. The meal and drinks were so good and inexpensive that we returned with Nerak, Equinenut, and Kathy.Web a few nights later.

Just don't order the rice and shrimp. It may have been an off-night but it wasen't that flavorful. The shrimp was very fresh, but the rice needed to be more savory.

He is the owner's son. It was incredible to see him blend drinks. We got a kick out of him because he was running around making drinks and opening beers but then he would stop and start horsing around with a young man who was helping him. But as soon as he got an order, he was all business.

His sister who is about thirteen runs the cash register.
