La Fam is widely known for its bottomless free chips and salsa (including their unique 'sweet' salsa), but there's much more to like here -- not least of which is the joint's cozy environment. All the standards are available a la carte and as dinners. Call for availability of popular house specialties like tamales and pork burritos. Beware: these meals are not light! Planning for adequate naptime for dessert is recommended. In January 2003, the Fam began offering Mexican beer and margaritas.

The familia is good... But to say Ixtapas isnt in the running is lunacy.
In my opinion these are THE TWO mex places to eat at.
