This is one of our favorite Mexican restaurants, and I want to emphasize the Mexico part, not the…read moreborderlands mash-up TexMex that most places serve. The rice is white with peas and carrots, like they do in the interior. The pepper is more likely to be chipotle. There are some excellent fish (usually black drum) and shrimp dishes. I had a superb camerones dish over rice with chipotle sauce and a lovely slaw on top you wouldn't think would work but it does. And IMO the portion sizes are perfect, not demanding the carry out box every single time. The bar is also good, and if you're going to treat yourself, yes, they'll use Clase Azul tequila and do it well. The interior has been redone a bit, mostly in the tables, since we were last there, and it's an improvement. They still have the garage-style roll-up doors for opening up to the patio in good weather. (Not today, thanks, too hot out.) Christian was our server and was timely and anticipatory and professional and endured my Spanish.

I recently dined at Santa Catarina Mexican Restaurant and had a mixed experience. The food was…read moredecent overall, but there were a few areas that could be improved. The mole enchiladas had good flavor, but they could have benefited from a little more mole sauce and a thinner tortilla to better complement the dish. I also ordered the Tacos Del Mar with beef, and unfortunately they seemed a bit light on the meat. On a positive note, the service was excellent. Our waitress was very attentive throughout the meal, frequently checking on us and making sure we had everything we needed. Our drinks were always refilled before we had a chance to ask, and our glasses never sat empty. The outstanding service definitely made the dining experience more enjoyable.

Plenty of menu options as well. The staff are warm, welcoming, and accommodating (we came with a group of 6 and they got us situated right away). The space is small (which I find very nice), there is indoor and covered/shaded outdoor seating available. And I love the decor! Overall, highly recommend!

My husband ordered their burrito, which came with chips and a cheese dip on the side. Their shrimp was good; nothing special. I did ask to try aleida's sauce, which many people liked on yelp, but we liked their green sauce the most! Overall, very cute and colorful restaurant; loved all the decor. The outdoor patio, where we sat, was covered and nice, until it started pouring hard outside. Not a super authentic latin restaurant. No complimentary chips and salsa. My taco wasn't worth more than $5, tbh, and we paid close to $9..given it was shrimp, but we've had much better shrimp tacos elsewhere for less. I wish I had a photo of my poor taco, but I totally forgot to take a picture :/

I ordered their taco salad with ground beef 12.99 and my husband ordered their tacos al carbon 15.99 and a margarita on the rocks $9. The margarita came out very bubbly and way too sweet. Didn't seem like there were any alcohol in there, but it did creep up on you later. Happy hour was monday to fridays from 3-7 pm. Our total came out to be $41 without tip. Overall, nothing special about this place. Our server was slow, given it was father's day, but she rarely checked up on us. We had to flag her down for the check in the end. Food was mediocre at best. We will probably not come back.

If Fogonero is a good indicator of the tastes this foreign country offers, then it will be worth the trip just to eat there. Any appetizer that offers Sweet Plantains and cheese has my attention. It was yummy! For the main courses, I went with the Pabellón Criollo which is shredded beef topped with a fried egg and wifey chose the Rustick Chicken. The shredded beef was delicious and the accompanying sides boosted the flavor even more. The Rustick Chicken sat on a layer of mashed potatoes and was a solid choice, too. For my dessert - drink , the mango milkshake was pretty amazing. Lots of different fruit flavors options also to try. The inside is small, clean and although there was a bit of a language barrier when ordering, it added a very authentic feel to the experience.

Pro tip: It's not directly on Walton Way; it's on the side of the building. Wilson, one of the owners, kindly guided me to the entrance when my GPS said I had arrived, but I still couldn't see the restaurant. Please note that there is indoor and outdoor dining along with free parking. Fogonero is best known for its empanadas, arepas, and other traditional Venezuelan specialties. While all of those sounded tempting, I was craving one food specifically...plantains. I have a real weakness for sweet fried plantains, and lately they have become my ultimate "go-to" comfort food. Fogonero's plantains hit the spot. They were perfectly sweet, moist, and enjoyable to eat. The restaurant is a whole vibe. As soon as you walk in, you're greeted by a striking mural of the Venezuelan flag painted in vibrant colors across the wall. It's eye-catching, inviting, and instantly sets the tone for the experience. Alfred welcomed me with a warm smile and immediately recognized that I was there to pick up an order. He had everything packed and ready to go, making the process quick and seamless. His friendly, personable demeanor made a great first impression. I'm looking forward to returning and exploring more of the menu once my mouth is back in eating condition.

I should've reacted to my first impulse when I walked in. Leave! Now! The booming, loud and annoying music was almost unbearable. I stayed and ordered the #3 lunch combination. The chips were good, but I much prefer a thinner white corn chip. The red salsa was very good; the creamy stuff was bland. The rice and beans were above average. The guacamole was a mess. It was bland, and the whole tostada--with guacamole, lettuce and chopped tomatoes--was slathered in something sweet and weird. I just pushed it aside. Excellent crispy taco shell, but the carne molida was dry, overcooked and disappointing. The cheese enchilada was awful. Wrong cheese. I prefer (correct) American, not cheddar. But it was good quality cheddar and not that stringy, bubble gum consistency stuff I run into occasionally. There was only a trace of what I assumed was supposed to be the chili con carne gravy (per the menu) so I requested more gravy which was thin, bland and somewhat tomato tasting, not chili con carne sauce. I ate the rice, beans, taco and a couple bites of enchilada--and left hungry. The service was outstanding.
