    Since checking out several more, I'd put Don Jose's and Sevi's on there. I know Casa Manana has a great reputation, but I don't care for it (my personal opinion). I cannot get on board with El Mexicano. I've tried it three times and been disappointed with the food and service every time. Will have to try El Gordo's soon.
