Mexican grocery store with a prepared (deli-style) food section and another extensive (Taqueria-style) cafeteria. The prepared stuff is really good, especially considering the low prices.

Traveler advice

Getting around

This is a car town

I highly recommend renting a car at the airport if you are not driving here in your own.
