Join us for our annual Dia de los Muertos celebration all weekend long beginning Thursday Oct 31st and ending 3 days later on Saturday Nov 2nd!!! From festive decor and painted faces, we'll also have drink specials along with a special Chicken Mole dish to celebrate.
Dia de los Muertos is a celebration of life, not death. It is a happy occasion to remember the good things about departed family members and to celebrate their lives and the positive influence that they had over their descendants. It is a time to celebrate our time alive with each other and to give thanks to those that have gone before us who made our lives possible. On this day, families visit the cemetery where their loved ones are buried. They decorate gravesites with flowers and candles and bring gifts for the departed. Families and communities also build altars dedicated to their dead
