Always start of with their trio dips that consists of queso , chori-queso dip and the guacamole. Complimentary chips and salsa is served minutes right after you are seated. Though, I must warn you that the service can be very slow and servers tend to be forgetful about parts of your order. Our last visit here they got our order wrong twice and this time they forgot our water and tortilla. I would definitely come back for their food, but might just opt for a takeout instead.

We planned a weekend in Erie to visit some of our favorite places, and Enrique's has always been…read morehigh on that list. When we heard they reopened after the fire and were temporarily operating out of the Flagship Food Hall, we made sure to stop by with friends. Unfortunately, when we arrived during the posted business hours (both on Google and at the location), the booth was closed. We weren't the only ones -- at least seven other patrons were waiting and left disappointed as well. It was frustrating to see so many people looking forward to enjoying Enrique's, only to find it closed without notice. This kind of inconsistency feels like poor business practice, and it left us very let down. We truly hope Enrique's can improve communication with customers, because the food has always been worth the trip -- but experiences like this make it hard to recommend right now.

Mad Mex in Erie, Pa, is located at the Millcreek Mall! Don't expect fine dining or upscale food…read morehere. You know why you're here. Maybe you came here to escape the Mall crowds (on the few days of the year there are any) or maybe you came to the Mall for some abject reason or more likely, Its some version of terrible weather outside and rather than going back to that, you'd instead like to escape to some semblance of a place with a vide that seemingly has warmer weather and all you could find in this mall was Mad Mex. Now, keep in mind, ANY Mad Mex in Pittsburgh is way better than this outpost of a place in the Erie Mall. It's more likely a tax write-off for the owner than a burgeoning business at this point. Let's move on! Most people come here for the margaritas and rightfully so. They have a diverse selection of margaritas, including a few seasonal options. This place is a bar that happens to serve food and usually has decent service. The food is designed to be adequate, so basically, you don't just have a boozy margarita and leave. I enjoy the guac and even their queso. Pro Tip: Just get the trio of dips. Go for the quesadillas, the wings, or even the fajitas! While you're at it, don't forget another margarita! Enjoy!

We waited so long to be asked for our order. Besides asking for our order and bringing us the food and check, the waitress didn't come back. No refills or anything. She could hardly speak English, which I truly don't blame her for, but it doesn't excuse not serving us. The price was terrible. Entirely too expensive for food that lacks quality. The chips and salsa were not good. The only reason I'm giving it 2 stars and not 1 is because the food was good enough. It was not quality but I had no major problems with it. We will not be back.

Check their page on FB if you want to see about new special menu items from time to time. I also saw on there that they were open a few times on Saturdays last summer, in addition to Sunday. Plenty of outdoor seating, tables were clean and well maintained. The food was very good!! We tried several different menu items, but it would take at least 3 or 4 visits to try everything available. My favorite item is their tamales (if you haven't tried these, they are well worth it, in my opinion). They had two kinds of tamales: green salsa with corn/cheese or brown mole sauce with pork. Personally, I would order at least two tamales. Also, we had steak tacos that came with red sauce on top. The red or green salsas (sauce toppings) were the only spicy components. Everything else was very flavorful, but not off-putting at all -- for those people who aren't sure about trying spicy food. I'm sure you could just ask them to leave off the salsa on top of the tacos, if you prefer not to risk it, although if you like spice then it's great! The tacos are also served with grilled onions on the side, fresh lime wedge and sliced radishes to decorate the plates. They come with fresh cilantro in the tacos, as well, which I really liked. If you aren't familiar with the Mexican-style roasted green jalapeño peppers on your plate, just skip them --or-- for the adventurous, be aware that all of the heat is in the seeds. Personally, I love them but I don't eat too many of the seeds. As an appetizer item, I ordered a tostada. If you're not familiar with tostadas, think open-faced cracker with lots of toppings. It's actually a corn tortilla that's been deep fried so it's very crispy and thin -- that's the part I think of as a cracker. Then on top, you have fresh pico de gallo (chopped tomato, probably onion, probably cilantro) and the meat topping of your choice (chicken, beef, etc.) I had chicken on mine. It's a little messy to eat, but entirely delicious. They give you plenty of napkins and don't be afraid to use your hands (or ask for a plastic fork which they have available). If you get thirsty, there's a list of cold drinks (authentic Mexican soft drinks called Jarritos and American soda pop, plus bottled water for sale). I've heard sometimes La Chona Movil makes soup (Menudo or Pozole). I'd love to try either one of these, next time the cooks in the kitchen have the inspiration. Overall, the atmosphere was comfortable although you are eating next to the side of the house in a quiet, residential neighborhood. There is a large park nearby, so you could take food over there to eat or just get everything to-go and eat at home. The food was worth the price, especially since a lot of restaurants are super expensive these days. I ordered extra pork tamales and ate them again for breakfast the next day with my coffee. We will definitely return again soon. We drove in all the way from Edinboro, but while we were in town we also went to the Peninsula -- so that's another idea for a Sunday afternoon... Chona Movil and Presque Isle beach sunset, all in one afternoon!! Erie at it's best!
