She comes around here, just about midnight. She makes me feel so good, she makes me feel alright. G-L-O-R-I-A....Gloria! She did make me feel good, alright and very happy. She is a restaurant featuring Salvadorian and Mexican food located at the south end of the Domain. They are open 7 days a week from 11 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. with the bar remaining open until 2 p.m. On Saturday they feature live Salsa music and dancing. When we first walked in to this very attractive restaurant I thought the piped in music was too loud but as we settled into our dining, it was perfect. The floor is tile and the other hard surfaces such as stone call for something to muffle conversations at surrounding tables. All diners are presented with warm, salty chips, pureed black bean dip and fresh salsa upon arrival. The simple and savory black bean dip is a signature item for this Texas restaurant chain. The steak nachos are very good and enough for two to share. I asked about the tender, flavorful meat and was told that in Salvador, they marinate their meat for 24 hours with pineapple, paprika and other spices. Sides of sour cream, guacamole and jalapenos were served as an accompaniment. The hubby had an interesting and tasty version of black bean soup. Pureed black beans were blended with chunks of celery, green chilies and onions and topped off with queso fresca. For dessert we split a heavenly slice of chocolate flan. Butterscotch and chocolate sauce were drizzled around the plate and the slice was finished off with whipped cream and a cherry. I had the overwhelming urge to pick up the plate and lick it. Service was above expectations with our server, Tatiana, who was perky, always had a smile and eagerly answered questions about the food.

Dear sweet little baby Jesus, Thank you, wonderful infant savior, for bringing me to Loca Luna's bathroom on St Patty's Day. Amen After too many Guinness, Irish Car Bombs, Jaeger bombs and Jaeger shots at a nearby tavern, we headed to Loca Luna. I grabbed a Cape Cod---Always enjoy one more before you break the seal---and pee-pee danced to the ladies room. I marveled at the sheer amount of liquid I had been holding and surmised that I may be part camel (only when drinking). Afterwards I hit the floor and awed the Latino ladies with my patented white girl moves. The music was good...I think....wait, is that dos campanas clanking or the sides of my brain alternately pumping against my skull due to catastrophic dehydration? WHY are you "Shhh"-ing me??---He does TOO look like Ricky Martin! No I do NOT keep bumping my ass into the guy behind me!! Are you saying my ass is big?? And then a voice from afar said "Vortex tater tots....naked women video game." Shortly thereafter I had a mouth full of tots and an eye full of boobies
