5ļøāƒ£ de Mayo is around the corner and weā€™ll be walk-in only all eveningā€¦ with ONE EXCEPTION..

Weā€™ll have a single reservable table which YOU CAN WIN ā€” by entering our fun lilā€™ ā€œscorecard raffleā€ next Tue (4/28). Hereā€™s how it works:

1ļøāƒ£ Join us anytime for dinner Tue and youā€™ll receive a scorecard ā€˜menuā€™
2ļøāƒ£ Each menu item has a assigned # of points (denominated in horseshoes); order that item and youā€™ll receive the associated # of raffle entries
3ļøāƒ£ At the end of the meal your entries will be recorded; the more points, the better you chances of winning!
4ļøāƒ£ Weā€™ll draw a winner the next day

Weā€™ll have more details on Cinco coming up (including the return of the strawberry marg..) but wanted to get this table locked down to one lucky winner! See yā€™all Tue

Tā€™s & Cā€™s:
šŸ§‘ā€āš–ļø Reservable table is for a group of 2-4 (or technically up to 6 if youā€™re willing to get cozy in a booth!)
šŸ§‘ā€āš–ļø You can reserve at a time of your choosing on the 5th, weā€™ll be open 4-10p
šŸ§‘ā€āš–ļø 2hr time limit applies on your table (thanks in advance for yr understanding! This night is crazy busy so we try to accommodate as many hungry customers as possible on Cinco)
