This is a truly a little gem. Tucked away in the neighborhood of Greenwood (about 10 min drive north), El Chupacabra is an eclectic and most delicious Mexican restaurant with a style all their own. They are allergy-friendly and can do gluten-free and dairy-free options for most of their food (vegan-cheese for the win!) Highly recommended.
