Sometimes the best things in life aren’t so pretty on the outside. El Tropico can attest to that adage since you probably wouldn’t even notice it driving by the strip mall it’s hidden away in. The doors don’t swing open until 4 p.m. but once you’re in you can get your fill of Mexican entrees without burning up extra cash. They serve up large portions and most prices are well under 10 bucks. You’ll be sure to have money left over for extra margaritas.
