From Citysearch

In Short
Located in Ball Square, El Guapo provides area couples and students with a casual spot for fiery Mexican fare. The large bar area can get quite noisy with crowds of margarita drinkers, and with over 100 seats, the dining area rarely has a wait. Familiar Tex-Mex fare (sizzling fajitas, huge burritos) dominates the menu, and there are lengthy beer and tequila lists as well.
