What's better than one Guadalupe's Mexican Grill on Dupont street? Finding a SECOND location entirely by accident!
A couple weeks ago we were in Fort Wayne for the weekend and finally visited the Guadalupe's Mexican Grill on Fort Leo Rd. I'd planned to go back on this visit, but Christmas with the Family was going to take up a lot of time. A last-minute visit to Kroger landed us in the parking lot. My empty stomach started talking to we decided to drive around the parking lot to see if there was somewhere we could grab a quick dinner and *BLAMMO*, there's another Guadalupe's!
Honestly, Guadalupe's stands out from the "assemble as you go down the line" Mexican eateries. They have an impressive amount of food options. Chicken, steak, barbacoa, carnitas, tofu, veggies, chorizo, ground beef, and chicken barbacoa are the protein options! It's impressive. you can chose a burrito, a bowl, tacos, a salad, or nachos. All with add-ins like veggies, cheese(s) and sauce(s). The Hot White Queso is Top Notch!
For sides you can always add Chips & Salsa/Queso/Guac (for a slight upcharge, natch), as well as beans and/or rice.
On both of our visits to both locations there was someone actively preparing fresh veggies. Even at 7:30 in the evening, he was cutting and slicing and dicing.
I went with my favorite (Chicken burrito with a whole lot of stuff in it) and a fountain drink. They also have a number of Jarritos® as well was beers...in fact, they have their own Mexican Lager!
They also have their own bottled hot sauce. I'm glad to say that their hot sauce is GOOD!
The prices are quite reasonable and the staff is friendly. My wife and I both noticed how clean the restaurant was, and how quickly they cleared tables that had emptied.
Like the other location we visited, this sign is on the wall and I thinks speaks to the essence of Guadalupe Mexican Grill.
