Lunch at Boxcar Cantina is always fun and delicious. Party with Moms loves it there, and the experience never gets old. We walk in to warm greetings from James, Jeff, Romana and Carlos. Our favorite starter? The Teepee Nachos, of course. Served for either 2 or 4 people, it is the greatest dish to share.
