Featured entrees are seafood enchilada, orange roughy à la Mexicana, steak ranchero, steak picado, camarones westenos (shrimp wrapped in bacon with ranchero sauce and cheese) and steak Filipelli, a broiled New York steak topped with jalapenos and white cheese. Other entrees include red or green burrito, fajitas, chicken chimichanga, shredded beef and refried bean burrito and pollo al mojo de ajo, two chicken breasts in garlic sauce, white wine and orange juice. Several desserts are Wild Willy's Chocolate Tacos and Jose's Sopapilla, the Mexican-style donut with chocolate and caramel sauces.
