Default Does Anyone Know this Restaurant?

My friend visited Tucson several years ago and remembers having a great meal at a great restaurant near downtown Tucson, but can't remember the name.

What she can remember is

1. The restuarant was inside a hotel (Best Western, Ramada Inn, etc.)
2. The cuisine was Mexican
3. The restaurant served their dressings in wine bottles
4. The couple that ran the restaurant also ran a breakfast place a few blocks away.

Does anyone know what restaurant this might be?

Default One of my all-time favorite places!!

The restaurant is Cafe Poca Cosa, it used to be in the ground floor of the Clarion(?) at Broadway and Scott Ave downtown. Then have now moved to the ground floor of the parking garage on Pennington (I know that this sounds crazy but it was somehow really tastefully done.) The old location was full of lots of mexican folk art and big plants, deep colors, and a nice outdoor patio that felt like someones home. The new location is very swanky and upscale. They have a rotating menu that is written up on blackboards daily, the seafood is great, the moles are to die for and the tamale pies are incredible. Sometimes that wait to get a table can be long, but definitely worth it. You can always call ahead for reservations.

Here is their contact info:

Wonderful place!

And it ain't just for them-there wine-and-cheese aficionadoEs. You could walk in with the beer-and-chips homies and feel right at home.

Hey, even a milk-and-cookies enthusiast should be able to settle in here...
