Mexican food

Try Arcelia's in Lafayette Square. Being a native Tucsonan, growing up 45 minutes from the Mexican border, I know authentic Mexican food. This reataurant, by far has the best, most authentic Mexican food I;ve found in St. Louis. I highly recommend it. Plates are about $8 on the average. They also have the best chips and salsa!

Enjoy!
