I very nearly cried when I saw that this place closed.  If the economy picks back up I home they will come back!

    First of all, I'm weird.  This restaurant would be one of my fav's for one reason alone.  Their ice.  It's the pellet-like ice that crunches in your mouth so well and is one of my favorite things in the universe.

    But on the subject of their food...

    This is actually one of my favorite Tex-Mex places to eat.  Two dishes really stand out for me: their flautas and and their chimichangas.  Both very well done.  Chips are nothing to write home about.  But the best is their hot sauce bar, and like one of the previous reviewers, the Smack My A$$ and Call Me Sally line of sauces is incredible.  

    My only complaint is the stingy amount of sour cream unless you request more, but to be fair, that's my complaint at most Tex-Mex places.

No one has as much photography STUFF as these guys.  The owner and all of his employees' are truly passionate about photography and know their gear better than anybody.   They also carry just about everything in their store, from the basic consumer class cameras and lenses all the way up to the largest and highest grade pro gear!   They are even Pro Leica Dealers!  As an independent store, they are tough but fair about returns.  Basically as it was explained to me, there are no returns on any electronics unless they are defective within the first two weeks, in that case they will exchange it in-store.  Otherwise it will have to go to the manufacturer for repair or replacement.  This is also the premier place to go for camera bags... there are more bags in this store than in the rest of the camera stores in the area... combined.  They have a WHOLE second showroom just for bags.  They also offer classes taught by area photographic instructors (including a 4 day intense Photoshop class)  It's a giant candy store for photographers!  They also offer a wide variety of printing services, most notably they have a really big lab printer than can do Kodak Metallic paper... which has to be seen to be believed!   They have a graphic arts professional on-site Monday, Wednesday, and Friday who can do miracles on Photoshop and understands color management really well.  One of their employees is a walking Leica database, and each of their other employees have their own gifts and knowledge to share.  It's truly a unique store and a frequent stop on my way home from work.
