text: It's nothing fancy, but Cafe Cortez does serve up a great burger!  Although I had stayed in the hotel for a couple of nights, I didn't pay attention to the cafe until my co-workers and I were looking for a lunch spot one day and saw their sign on the sidewalk for $5 Burger and Beer.  The first time we went in, we were in a rush, which made us feel like the service was slow, but in reality, this is actually a great lunch spot!\n\nSo we all got the $5 Burger and Beer deal (which is offered all day every day). Note, if you want to add cheese, it's an additional $0.50.  The meal comes with a bag of Lays potato chips and if you want to substitute for fries, then it's an additional $2. You can also substitute the beer for a soda (with no extra charge).\n\nFirst of all, you can't go wrong with $5.  You can't even get a meal at McDonalds/In-n-Out/Burger King, etc. for $5!  On top of that, this was a freshly grilled burger (decent sized, I think 1/2 lb) with fresh vegetables and a beer (Bud, Bud Light or a dark, Greek beer) in a sit down restaurant.\n\nIt was good enough that we even went back the next day.  I ended up getting the Mushroom Swiss Burger the next day because I wanted fries. \n\nOh, and I forgot to mention that when you sign up for the El Cortez Player's Card, you get a $5 off coupon at the cafe. So that meant that my $5 burger and beer was FREE!
