"The outside vendors are definitely a hit," she said.
From May 3 to 5, the restaurant offered its Cinco de Mayo Block Party.
The evening of May 5, which was the day of Cinco de Mayo, featured a smaller event without street closures.
However, the event still included offerings such as an elevated VIP deck, drinks by the Patrón Spirits Company, costume entertainment, and live music by Bri Rivera and her band.
