So I drive by this location at least once a month while working...and always see it packed outside...so my foodie senses would tingle to find out what was the lure?
Well...I'm still puzzled by it. First I do want to reiterate...3 stars IS NOT bad...it means average.
So why 3 stars...well one you enter the place it feels a little discombobulated inside. There's like 3 different sections you can approach to order... depending on what you want to order. Imagine going into McDonald's and they tell you if you want to order hamburgers...go to counter #1...go to counter #2 for chicken based items...and counter #3 for deserts. There's no ordering focal point.
This place has 3 basic ideas it seems...BBQ/fajita items, tacos, and basic traditional Mexican plates. I decided to go with traditional enchiladas verdes....and check the pic...where are they? Hidden under a nice mound of lettuce and tomatoes. I do like my veggies...but you can always place that on the side considering the lettuce will wet the tortilla even more...making for soggy enchiladas.
You can tell the rice and beans are basic...which they were. The kicker for me was the 1980s plastic plate...and the store bought Kraft sour cream packet they gave me for my enchiladas...nice touch for the presentation. There were also a few flies buzzing near me...which I don't mind ...but definitely noted.
The place is a very open design...feels like an adult day care converted into an eatery. The place is fairly priced... not overly high prices. However I will definitely not be trusting my foodie senses as much as I used to. read more
