Update from Kyle, January 2023: Guy Fieri's Beer Garden no longer allows smoking as of January 15, 2023 due to a new Mexican law not allowing places that serve food allow smoking at the airport. The banner on the garden door also shows the change from "Smoking" section to "Sunny" section.

Update from Andy, December 2022: The beer garden is great! $10usd admisstion includes a 32oz beer or another drink of your choice that is $10usd or less. Upon admission your are given a writsband for re-entry at anytime. The only downside is there is no WiFi in the smoking/beer garden.
