El Cid Cantina

Want some Mexican food after hiking Yosemite National Park? Well, this is the place to come! This cantina provides excellent service, homemade salsa and the widest variety of Mexican food I have ever experienced in my life. Chimichangas, Chile Verde and Lengua (tongue) stew are only a few of the popular dishes there. TVs surround the dining area with your favorite soccer, baseball and basketball teams. Now you can eat well and not miss the big game!
