Sugar Skull Cafe quietly opened in Trinity Groves last weekend, and will celebrate its grand opening this Monday.

“[Sugar Skull] is a place where people can have great food and cocktails, and not spend a ton of money,” owner Jonn Baudoin (Casa Rubia and Driftwood) explained. The menu at Baudoin’s fast-casual taco restaurant and coffee bar offers breakfast tacos and plates, signature tacos, street-style tacos, and appetizers such as queso fundido and elotes. “Chef Ricardo Ledezma keeps [the food] traditional, but incorporates flare,” Baudoin continued.

The restaurant also doubles as a coffee shop. “Coffee has always been a passion of mine,” Baudoin said, “we get our beans from Ascension, they made a special roast for us… it’s called ‘The Sugar Skull.'” They also carry Ascension’s espresso beans.

To keep things fast (and casual), the bar offers a variety of beer, and frozen margaritas. No craft cocktails here.

Margaritas come in lime and prickly pear flavors.
