    Mas Mañanitas is different than other Mexican restaurants. The food is delicious and prices are reasonable for what you get. The drinks are amazing! Try the margarita flight! I love the “Sorullo” which is made with Mezcal and tamarindo. If I didn’t have to drive, I would drink them all night. Only bit of a drawback is the noise level, but hey, people were having a good time. And when you combine alcohol, friends/family, great food, and fun music, it’s bound to get a bit noisy! Enjoy!!!

    The reservations were down but they welcomed us in. It wasn’t busy plenty of space. Our waitress was awesome and the other servers as well. As they came by to serve very helpful with our questions. We will be back. I was really hoping that Danny Trejo would have been there. But it’s okay we’ll be back awesome food awesome service thanks again.
