This retro Oak Cliff spot, looking on the outside like the set from a cheap Western and decked out inside with every bit of Mexican kitsch you could think of--Christmas lights, dangling sombreros, vaquero saddles, etc.--serves seriously good food. The menu features lots of atypical choices, including one of the house specialties, cabrito (goat). Everything we tried was superb, including pollo al horno, a super-moist grilled half-chicken coated with herbs and sautéed in a brandy sauce; carne adobada, strips of pork loin marinated and coated with dry chilies and herbs, then grilled; and cabrito en salsa, chunks of tender goat meat in a tomato sauce. Great value, too. Another asset is the outstanding, thin, house-made tortillas--corn and flour--crafted by hand in a corner of the dining room. Strolling mariachis every evening and a good tequila list with even better prices. Worth a trip across the river any day of the week.
