Are you looking for a break from the theme parks? Did you know you can dine all over Universal Orlando Resorts? In the two theme parks, at one of the (5) On-site Universal resort hotels and on Universal’s Citywalk. Featuring some of the best dining options, shopping, and nightlife.
Here are a few of my favorite places to dine on Universal’s Citywalk.

The classic menu is based on the cantinas, street carts, and markets around Mexico City. They use the freshest ingredients. Serving their foods marinated, roasted or grilled to perfection. Steaming fresh tortillas; fresh, colorful vegetables; and hot, succulent meats. You will feel like you are in a real Mexican cantina once you set foot into this colorful Mexican themed restaurant.
