Kids will love the colorful decor, while grown-ups will go crazy for the killer margaritas.. The Scene
After a day on the slopes--or a couple of hours in the nearby outlet mall--head in for a well-deserved margarita and some surprisingly good Mexican food. Kids get crayons to pass the time until the food arrives, while Mom and Dad can enjoy a drink. Try a Margarita de Loco--costly, but well worth it--made with Herradura Anejo tequila, Cointreau and Grand Marnier.

The Food
Many head to the Loco Lizard just for the mole--two varieties are offered: a mild, dark red and a spicier yellow. Both are served in a multitude of ways--over chicken or enchiladas, etc. The carnitas (cubed pork, instead of the traditional pulled) are terrific and heartily peppered up. Fish tacos are also popular, usually made with salmon. The usual combination dinners are also quite good. Lighter choices include four different salads, along with black bean and tortilla soup. And don't forget dessert--try margarita pie or flan.
