served with all-you-can-eat salad and breadsticks and all meals

Chi-Chi's- 5800 Peach St. Phone number 868-5351
Chi-Chi's is a Mexican fiesta waiting to happen. From the
time you enter into the brightly painted rooms with low light-

food is some of the best in Erie, and even the hungriest of
people enjoy the chips and salsa that are served when you are
seated. We recommend the Enchilada Conquistador, Tres'
Amigos, chili con queso, and fried ice cream.

sonable prices, statewide Eat'N Parks are popular hangouts for
many students and adults alike. The menu includes sandwiches,
