    This is a small grocery store with a lot of South American products to be found! There is a huge butcher in the back with a variety of meats that looked to be in good shape and priced very reasonably. This appeared to be a top notch meat market and it was very clean! The seafood selection was a little odd by having random produce and I think a can of beer in the cooler on top of the product, I don't know what that was about. The prices were mostly cheap and the selection was great with nuts, sweets and legumes to choose from, as well as peppers if your palate can handle it! You'll find your candies and Jarritos here too. The produce looked good, especially the veggies, and it was interesting to see aloe vera and cactus (nopal) sold here. We got tamarind and mangoes and were pleased with both. For a smaller selection, I was fairly impressed with how fresh it seemed. Though I didn't see a bakery per se, there are two large cabinets of baked goods and pan dulce. It appears these are made fresh daily as I saw the cabinets being filled from trays of fresh made bread and sweets in the morning. This was great to see and I keep eyeing them, but haven't tried them yet. Part of me feels like I would be cheating on Lucy's Bakery, but I must say they are tempting! There are two registers up front by the entrance that seem to stay quite busy in the afternoon. There was only one manned when we visited in the morning. All product is checked out here and if you are interested in the taqueria you actually have to place your order at the register, get a ticket and take it to the taqueria- a bit confusing! The taqueria is up front and to the left when you enter. We tried them both on Saturday morning and on Sunday afternoon, and to be honest, they seem a bit inconsistent. They also seemed overpriced. That's okay, it's just an offering of the store, as opposed to it's own destination. The tacos are $1.99 each and they don't charge differently for corn or flour, which is actually quite nice. In the morning we got a fajita and potato which seemed to have shredded asada mixed in. The potato was cooked well and tasted good. The fajita was extremely chewy and not very flavorful, I wouldn't order it again. The carnitas were greasy and a bit chewy, but there was a lot of good flavor and it was the best one I tasted. They were generously filled though, which is an important note to the price point. They came plain and there is a salsa bar with cilantro, limes, several salsas, onions, etc. to dress your tacos yourself. We got the pupusas for $2.50 and out of a total of 4, they were cooked 3 different ways. The first visit was great and different than others we have tried. They only had cheese and were fried, quite good! The second visit we got a burnt one and an undercooked one. What a disappointment and certainly overpriced for what we got. We will be sticking with Guatelinda Café for our future pupusa cravings. The grocery store was varied and had some fantastic deals. We did find some imported coffee that was expired, but that was the only product we found that was. There was a variety of Agua Fresca that was clearly made from scratch that was self service. They weren't labeled, so I'm not positive of the exact offerings. Just another thing no one else in town has! You really need to know your Spanish to shop here. Though some signs have an English translation below, don't count on it. Most items weren't even labeled or priced in the store, the coolers or the taqueria. The exception is the meat market seemed to have consistent signs with the product and price on it. Very few employees speak English so be prepared. The people were nice and were actively cleaning between customers. This place is definitly worth checking out!

This is a game changer :D There are freezers full of delicious frozen offerings, fries, jalepeno taters, fried pickles, etc, and we grabbed a few to try. Also, there is a wall of quite the selection of local honey, jams, etc. BUT the real gem, the raw meat counter was chock-full of incredible cuts and varieties of meats! We decided to try to the cordon bleu chicken and brisket poppers this trip, as well as an 18 pound brisket, YUM! The employees were ready to help with any questions and even handed us a basket when our hands started to get too full. So grateful! I will note for future review readers, there is about a 4% card charge. Apparently there are signs that I missed while I was busy bouncing my eyes from product to product, so I ended up having to call once I got home about why the receipt showed a much high price than the label on the meats. So, the price label on the products is the cash price, totally understandable! In conclusion, Wise Choice exceeded our expectations on meat selection, and they even have Diet Dr Pepper and Topo Chico (I didn't have to run to Walmart for sodas! Woohoo!). Thanks team!!

We wanted to just drive around the lake (which as it turns out isn't actually possible, we will wait until it is less hot to try the bike trail). This place is highly rated and I believe I remember something about the DLT (duck, lettuce and tomato) sandwich on DDD a loooong time ago. Today was the day, it is located in a strip mall and there is only about 4 counter seats, so we were prepared to eat in the car, but the place was empty. We ordered from the pretty grumpy/personality devoid cashier and waited for our order. He didn't greet us, he mumbled back one word answers to our questions, he didn't even really tell us when our food was up, it was placed on the counter and I had to ask if it was ours... (come on man!, you are the front of house, PLEASE make an effort!) We ordered 2 sandwich combo plates, mine was the DLT with beans and hubbs got the brisket sammy with chili-mac. Both for me were pretty underwhelming. Not much smoke flavor and just okay in terms of delicious-ness. I did enjoy the cherry sauce on the DLT, I did not enjoy the raw onions on the brisket. I would love to say I wanna go back to try other things, but I just won't - it just wasn't good enough. Note I rarely give 3 stars, so this is a low score for me. The chili-mac had about 1/4" of water on the bottom of it. I did like the beans, but the "combo" side is minuscule, only slightly larger than those containers that you get your sauce in from Raising Cane's. Also - can we just PLEASE upgrade to perforated paper towels on the counter, I bet you think you are saving money with the cheap un-perforated ones, but really - I wasted so much more of the roll trying to get them to rip off. Some reviews mentioned the delicious desserts (the cherry crumble) - but they were out of everything except the banana pudding, so we passed and went to the highly rated bakery in the same strip mall a few stores down.

My favorites are the Rooster Tails (fried onions) and the chips and queso, but the real stars of the menu are the burgers. They're always fresh, hot, and juicy. The free peanuts are a nice touch, and they offer daily specials as well. I really miss the Bloody Mary bar, which was always a lot of fun, but their Sunday special makes up for it with a generous double for just $7. There's always a game on TV, which is a welcome break when you've had enough politics to last a lifetime. The servers and bartenders are consistently friendly, welcoming, and helpful. And whatever you do, don't forget to ask about the Yahtzee Roll at the bar. If you know, you know!

There's a full bar on both floors as well. The staff was pretty attentive, but the wait for food took a long time. I was happy the cocktails came pretty quickly and were well-made. The food was all pretty good for the most part not wowed but good! I have no complaints about my plate; it came with a great portion of food and was reasonably priced for BBQ. I ordered pulled pork and a side of corn and tomato salad and coleslaw. The sides were different from what I've had before, but I did enjoy them. Their coleslaw is more vinegar than mayo-forward. The pulled pork was well-seasoned, and the side of BBQ was the perfect match. My margarita tasted as if they made the mix in-house, and I prefer this. Store-bought mixers are usually either too sweet or too sour. However, if it is store-bought, I'm impressed! This was not a sweet margarita. My partner went for the Tennessee Texas Hot Sandwich; I did try it. There was hardly any heat despite it being their spicy chicken sandwich. I'm not sure if they make their chips in house but it seemed so.
