La Pagua and El Patrillo are my personal top two favorite Mexican restaurants in town.

The Full House pizza at BJ's is #1.

Back in the day, that 40% off Monday deal was sweet.

That is often a winning hand.

Luna’s Bar and Grill ended the same way Drago’s has. Cheap initial lease then after a successful opening and sustaining a good clientele base the owners of the building tripled the lease rate. So they closed the doors.

That's not really what happened. They were on their initial lease. They signed the lease (not a good idea) knowing what they were getting in to. There was no arbitrary escalation that the lessor single handedly executed. The simple fact was that Covid along with a really heavy lease and opening their other location in LC were all too much for them to succeed.

But they let that place age out of existence. The atmosphere was down right horrible in the last years of its existence. Right before it closed, they tried making a more modern bar at the entrance, however I believe it was too late.

Also, many of the regular week day patrons moved from Downtown to more in the Kaliste Saloom, Camilia, Ambassadar Caffery areas. That also hurt them tremendously.

Well, its not a chain first of all. Second, they are pretty damned solid. And, the rest of the food is at the top of the mexican food list.

Hmmm, ok.
