    "When passion meets inspiration, an obsession is born."…read more Join me; let's go get lost in a dance infused trance! The live music could be heard outside, that's the reason for checking out the inside! Those Latin vibes !! Warmth and happiness can be heard as the bartender welcomes you in the door! My recent visit to Nogales, not much here to do after work! The long hard day has set in as a drink is welcoming. Come play with me! Across the border from the hotel center my journey led me astray. Let's get obsessed with an adult libation. The days are long when you travel across the road. Moving from town to town. Stop in and do the work, then go. I found some happy and a special obsession here. Who's been to a bar in Mexico? This is not that typical bar in the states. The bartender is so inviting he's ready to make an obsession just for me. The music is playing real loud. As I sit it's a Crown on the Rocks with Lime for starters. The music plays in the back ground, you cannot help yourself from wanting to shake your groove thing to the rhythm. What's on tap? Mexico's finest beers! Whatever you need the bartender can pour you! All you need is to ask! My Spanish is "muy pequenos." But I'm fluent enough to order a drink or two. Not many individuals in the bar. It's quaint and a decent place to drink. Rules rules. This is not the United States; it's a bar in Mexico. The mask rule is not enforced "as much." It's truly an experience. One must come for themselves. Nogales is the other side of the border, so do yourself a favor and walk through the fence to this side of Mexico. The lines getting through the gates are long. Make sure you have your papers, so you can get back. No driving while drinking. Now that we have a way back home after drinking let's go for a few rounds of margaritas. The tequila in Mexico is "authentic." The bartender makes a mean margarita. At my request he added fresh jalapeños to the top. What's not to love? Strong and delicious margaritas made with the authentic alcohol of choice here in Mexico. Tequila and more tequila. The bar is clean. The service is excellent. Get out there and dance your fever away or just kick back and drink soaking up the local culture. Either way it's a win win! Time to bring this journey to a close. My obsession is quenched for now. Let's ponder the mysteries of the universe. Count those blessings as we wave bye bye to the bartender. Thank you again for all the cheers that we have done. Now the road leads me home. To the next obsession I'll raise this last toast too!

    Disappointing at best. For most of their dances they are covered in a full one piece swimsuit, no…read moreclothes come off unless your throwing money their way. I know their in it for the money, but it's a hard sell. We requested a song and not a single girl was on the stage! My husband bought me a lap dance-the girl was nice, cute, and had a body type I can get into...but she seemed too shy, and I didn't like being taken in back into a dingy little closet for the dance. All in all I found this place to be a disappointment. My husband was offered a "private room" too get "more" for $20....we obviously declined, but felt they were selling more than a dance....very different experience, and not one I would return for. PS, another girl attempting to make a big tip took my boob out and sucked it...when no money came her way-she walked away!!!

    The staff is so friendly. When we walked in the front entrance the employee put down his mop and…read moresaid let me take you to the restaurant. Everyone is so friendly and patient with our English. We were greeted and sat immediately. The building is very nice. By anyone's standards. But compared to surrounding buildings, it is high end. The guacamole is so fresh and plated beautifully. Quite possibly, the best I've ever had. Don't be fooled. This isn't our first visit to Mexico. We've been to Cancun, PVR and others recently. But this is good eats.

    We ate at the restaurant in the Hotel Fray San Marco in the middle of the day on a Monday. We were…read moreseated and waited on immediately. The salsa was hot, very tasty but wow, so salty. The tortilla chips and flavor of the salsa kept us munching. The chips were über thin and extra crunchy. For lunch we had Camarones Bacanora en estilo Veracruz where the shrimp are cooked in the Bacanora liquor and smothered in sliced red, yellow and green peppers; sliced onions and the Veracruz light tomato sauce and with refríes beans and white rice with a few diced vegetables cooked in. Pescado al Horno was enclosed in aluminum foil accompanied by broccoli, carrots, onions, zucchini, green olives and sliced red, yellow & green peppers. They were served hot and steaming after being freshly prepared. Both were colorful presentations and tasty! We would buy these dishes again. We recommend and would visit Fray San Marco again.

    Bar Fray San Marco - Now this is a margarita!   What a difference when they make it with fresh ingredients instead of premixed.

    Came here with my dog and girlfriends and sat on the patio - super clean space inside and out,…read morewhich I always notice. Big bonus: they're dog-friendly and even brought her water. Our waiter, Jesus, was awesome - friendly, attentive, and really helpful with the menu. We ordered the quesabirrias and... wow. They do them a little differently - kind of like a layered quesadilla folded taco-style - and the flavor was seriously on point. Paired it with their micheladas, which were just as good. They've got a huge menu with plenty of options, but honestly, I'd go back just for that combo again. Only regret is I ate it too fast to get a picture . Definitely worth a stop if you're in the area.

    This place was just so-so. It is a combination of a Tex-Mex restaurant and sports bar. There were 7…read morehuge TVs playing basketball sports loud. There is a Cantina bar area too. Most of the menu items are Tex-Mex but there are also burgers, ribs and wings. There were only two vegetarian options: a veggie burrito and fried cauliflower "wings". I was curious about the cauliflower "wings" so I ordered that. I was expecting the cauliflower to be fried or look like wings. However, the cauliflower was just baked and barely cooked. It was served with dipping options, celery and carrots. I ate the cauliflower but I was disappointed in the dish. I could easily have made this at home. The agua fresca jamaica drink made from hibiscus flowers was good.
