There’s nothing wrong with a “might as well be a bullseye” tat in the small of the back – as long as the wearer isn’t in a teeny bikini at your fancy al fresco fiesta.
When it comes to summer style (and everything else, really), you’re a traditionalist. Lucky for you, everyone stays covered up on the bright patio of the new Yelapa Playa Mexicana, decked out with beach balls, fans, umbrellas and everything else you need to feel miles away. The coastal Mexican menu is spectacular, along with the presentation – start with the Actual Pico de Gallo, then move on to the guac, Caesar salad and fresh ceviches before traveling through the dessert menu. The beers come in tiny glasses with tiny price tags, and there’s a reverse happy hour.
Hit the Beach for margaritas, get wild and throw off your cardigan. The only thing hiding under your tank top is a Lilly Pulitzer tag.

Come in for a “Nooner” lunch special Mondays – Saturdays in June and mention Houston Tidbits for a complimentary Mexican Raspita snowcone in minted strawberry, spiced peach, cucumber melon, pear cumin or tequila lime.
