A: This is my favorite film festival. I appreciate the films that are played at this festival. Alot of the films come from the far east. Some of them are thrillers, fantasy, horror, and/or martial arts. There are english language movies here as well, but they will not be mainstream ones.

A: I used to live very close to Padres and try to get back their whenever I am in the neighborhood. Probably the best $5 margarita in town. There, I said it, let it be known. Good happy hour spot with a different take on your classic mexican dishes. The staff are all young, helpful and energetic. There is a bartender there known as "super-bartender", he is the one encouraging patrons to take shots. Which never makes for a bad time. They have a salmon enchilada dish that is lights out. I am usually there for happy hour but the rest of the entree menu looks and sounds very good.

A: Bring a fire extinguisher! Well, not really, but you do have to be a tad careful about the capsaicin level of some of the dishes here, they're pretty high on the Scoville scale. Rand H., Mike C. and I tried the buffet here today and I must say I'm a fan! (that's what 4 stars is supposed to mean, right?) The dishes are truly tasty with varying degrees of heat, from extremely mild to thermonuclear. My suggestion is, get a tiny sample of each, try them all in small bites at first, and on your next trips to the buffet trays, indulge in those dishes whose heat level you like. I found pretty much all dishes - meat, veggies and legumes - to be good. The tamarind chutney was a bit watery, and they didn't have mint-cilantro chutney, which is my preferred condiment for taming the heat of this kind of cuisine. I'm glad I managed to have room for dessert, because their rice pudding was heavenly.

Q: negative

A:
Right when I entered, the bartender greeted us and ask us to choose a table or bar. The place was pretty decent size and it was very dark inside. With the heat ugh not good. It was so hot inside there. Very uncomfortable. The bartender was very nice though. They had a happy house menu at the bar. I tried the BBQ pulled pork sliders. It was came with 2 pork sliders and taro chips. It was very good. 3.5/5 . I also tried the Carne Asada wontons 3/5. This place seem like there potential. An A/C would be a start.
