Chimichanga has a fun, laid-back feel -- complete with delicious food and prices that are easy on the pocketbook. While sitting back in your wooden booth with its slick red table top, you'll notice stained-glass windows, Aztec-framed art and rows of colorful Mexican hats hanging on the walls. The beach-scene murals only add to this festive atmosphere. Chimichanga's extensive menu offers hearty portions, including a wide variety of especialidades, including carne asada and ribeye steak. They also serve special entrees, such as chicken chulupas, fajitas and Chimichangas, and plenty of combination platters -- including several veggie-based options. As you wait for dinner to arrive, order one of their Mexican beers -- perhaps a Dos Equis or a Corona -- to accompany your complimentary chips and salsa, and enjoy the Mexican music playing in the background. During warm weather, be sure to take advantage of the patio out front. It's the perfect place to sip margaritas after a long week at work. -- Emily Spreng Lowery
