El Mexicano is such a fun place to visit! I want to return and purchase about a dozen items from…read moretheir grocery store which carries a variety of fresh cheeses and a hot case full of food I'd like to try, along with a gamut of other Latin American products throughout. We ate lunch at El Mexicano recently and while I enjoyed my huarache, I had serious food envy over my companion's carnitas. They looked and tasted very good and, as I later learned, are a restaurant specialty. I'll definitely come back to El Mexicano! Not only to check items off my shopping list, but for another cheap and tasty lunch (and carnitas).

My issue isn't directly with the restaurant portion of the business, but rather with the grocery…read moreside. While there is nothing wrong with the quality of the products, the pricing practices are highly frustrating. The Issues: No Listed Prices: Almost none of the items have price tags. The only way to find out how much something costs is when you are ringing it up at the register. Inconsistent Cashier Charges: The cashier appears to make up prices on the spot without scanning or checking for accuracy. If you don't watch closely, you will easily be overcharged. Outrageously High Markup: Some of the produce prices are completely unreasonable. For example: 1 lb of frozen Spanish plums: $12.99 Small papaya (1.5 lbs): Almost $20.00 Medium chayote: $2.00 each Final Verdict: Keep a very close eye on your total if you shop here. If you question the cashier about these erratic prices, be prepared for a defensive response or a poor attitude. I hope management addresses this lack of pricing transparency soon.

I ordered the veggie fajitas and asked them to add chicken, because I wanted all the veggies (mushroom, onion, and green pepper) with my protein, and none of the fajita dishes had all of those veggies. I pointed to the item on the menu and explained what I wanted and why. I also ordered a cocktail. But... what came was a glob of red with shredded chicken and red sauce on top, which doesn't look like fajitas to me. I asked if this was the fajitas, and she said yes. I thought that maybe it was served differently here, and I figured I'd fine the veggies inside somewhere. I now realize (after looking up the menu online) that what I ate was the veggie enchilada meal, because it was potatoes wrapped in tortillas, and there were no or few veggies involved. My cocktail also didn't come, and we were half way through the meal before the wait staff, who was milling around because there were no other tables inside, made eye contact enough for us to ask for our waitress. She apologized, obviously forgot, and brought the cocktail. The potato enchiladas were tasty, but not what I wanted, so I'm disappointed. The service was clearly disappointing. But the setting and the chips and salsa were good. I'd go back for a drink and to sit outside.
