I've had three meals at Raphael's and i liked everything. A must-have is the queso flameado. It's way better than any queso i've ever had. Instead of a bowl of melted cheese, they bring you a plate of cheese and chorizo that is literally on fire. Once it melts up, they serve it to you with tortillas so that you can make your own cheese tacos. Fun and delicious. I've also had the fish tacos, the chicken desperado and the fajitas, and i must say you really can't go wrong. And last but not least, they have Dos X beer on tap.
