El Moose is a gem of a Mexican restaurant that truly captures the essence of authentic cuisine! 🌮✨ I recently visited for dinner, and although we faced a brief wait, it was well worth it. The vibrant atmosphere, complete with quirky artwork, sets the perfect backdrop for a fun night out.

I recommend trying the shrimp entree - eight large shrimp served with rice, beans, and tortillas! The portions are generous, and the spicy salsa perfectly complements the meal. Their aqua de jamaica was a refreshing bonus! Can't wait to return for their mole. Great service and friendly vibes all around! 😊
