    Whether it's worth a 1,000 words or 10, it is amazing what a photo can do. All it took was that photo of the salsa with summer tomatoes that 'G N.' posted on on Aug 21, 2021 and I knew I would have to try it for myself. Of course, I examined the menu beforehand, and decided I would order: - A side of pico (from showing the server the aforementioned photo) - Chips and queso (because Ariana L. said it's "UNREAL") - Crispy Carne Asada Tacos (because they just sounded good) As much as I wanted to becoming a raving superfan, the experience was a flop. It wasn't bad by any stretch, but at the same time very unremarkable. Pretty much just "aiight". First, the pico: it wasn't the heaven I assumed it would be from the photo (and seemed perhaps like a slightly different product). First, the salt seemed inconsistent, as if it were sprinkled by hand on top. Second, also working against it is the lack of acid (lime). I also would have liked a little more onion, but this is more a personal preference. As far as the queso goes, I am pleased to report that Ariana L did not let me (us?) down! I thought it had great flavors, spice, and an approachable heat. It was creamy, savory, and not overly gooey. While I would not describe it as "unreal" it was done very well. The chips were pretty standard. They seemed house-made, and seemed to suffer from the same salt issue as the pico - what appeared to be a too-light and inconsistent spinkling. As an FYI - these are not included and get charged extra ($1.50). The tacos were a crisp, griddled tortilla inside a soft tortilla. I will give them credit for the tacos being stuffed with ingredients, as well as the creativity of how crispness is achieved. These were filled with meat (carnitas), pico, guacamole, beans, and cheese. Alas, they didn't really do it for me either. The carne asada was fairly tender and had some light flavor, but wasn't out of this world. The pico was the same stuff I had earlier in the meal, guacamole was nothing to write home about, and the cheese was in a too-small amount for my taste. Not terrible but also not something I would necessarily want to order again. The service here was polite and speedy, and the vibe inside is simple, bright, and inviting. At this point, all of this would equal three stars, however, Where it comes to value, Locales is definitely on the expensive side for what you get. The two tacos (albeit loaded) came out to $18. I may be willing to forgive $10 for queso, but not having chips be included in that cost feels downright deceitful (it's not about the buck-fifty, it is a matter of principle). Now, as someone who's spent $30 on a single plate of sushi, it's not just the cost. An expensive meal can be worth it if the quality is top-notch. I'm sorry to say I do not believe this was the case here.

    Birria tacos...oh my yumm

    New fav..:queso with chorizo and Birria tacos...OMG. Cool atmosphere- love the music. Sat at the bar and really enjoyed. Don't forget to buy the kitchen a round!

    The vibe this place has is absolutely fantastic, whoever did the decor is talented! Smaller interior, big flavor... small servings. Left hungry :( I think for snacks and drinks this place is great but actual food ngl, not so much. Willing to try again though Came in as a family of four, not offered a high chair but we brought our own! The heartiest thing was the hot dog my son ordered. My husband said the tacos were delicious but unremarkable. & the tortilla itself for my quesadilla was lovely. I ordered a quesadilla suiza which came out looking like a baby burrito... I could've had another one and been satisfied with the price. Also somehow only one side had cheese, took one bite than the attached picture. S M A L L The apple empinadas were okay; flavor for the filling was great but was overwhelmed by the oil used to fry it. I'm not sure if they were the wrong temp to enter the oil or if they stayed in too long but it was overly oily to the point that it made me nauseous & my son said: "no thank you" after a bite. So for more than $50 I left nauseous, hungry , but not too upset so that really should drive home the vibe. Strange.

    Food is generous portions and fantastic. I had the Cadillac Margarita (my goto) and not good. But they do have Trillium on draft. Service is fantastic and well managed. Ambiance can get a bit loud but is a good time vibe. Only bummer was my margarita but did I mention they have Trillium and it's on draft!

I would agree with previous reviewers that chips ate really good but that's where my compliments end. Nachos had tons of crema but not a lot of melted cheese along with some pieces of hard and tasteless hard beans and pico in some places. I went with one of the specials - butternut squash and black beans quesadilla. I asked for the sauce on the side. When it arrived, it looked like 4 pieces of thin tortillas so I opened to see what was inside and it had very little inside. The butternut squash was drowned in oil and the beans were again hard and tasteless. There wasn't a lot of cheese or any other fillings you would expect from a quesadillas. Service was good and our server checked with us and refilled our drinks. Place has a bar area that was somewhat empty for a Friday night and they had a game playing on the big screen tv. Bathroom seemed somewhat messy.

Our waitress Jess had our drinks going in no time and as some of you know dining with kids can be challenging and sometimes getting food in front them asap is important. She had her order in and moving asap and that chicken tender meal out asap. Little yelper said they were the "best ever"... we questioned that and I tried a small piece and yep they were fresh and some of the best we can recall in recent dining experiences. There were several bowls of the clam chowder around the table and everyone was in full agreement that it was fantastic. Rich flavor and a healthy amount of clam and potatoes in the each spoonful. The fish and chips, it was a healthy portion of fish, fries and the coleslaw. Well done fish and the tartar sauce was fantastic. The chicken dinner was a heaping mound of chicken bacon and mashed potatoes with a side of corn. It tasted as great as it looked. A fish Reuben? Yep. Again another treat for the tastebuds just like the shrimp tacos. I don't do 5 often but this place definitely deserves it. Freshness, flavor and service all were spot on. Highly recommend visiting off the hook.

However, a couple days ago my fridge resembled the shelves of bread, eggs, and milk before a nor'easter. Truth be told, I'd actually tried to go to my beloved Trader Joe's, but it was closed on this fine New Year's day. Thus, this fateful day was the one I would give The Fresh Market a second chance. I liked it so much I returned four days later! The Fresh Market has some everyday staples, as well as some speciality and premium/higher end brands and products. They have an impressive bakery as well as meat/seafood department. There is a wide array of cheeses and great assortment of deli salads, sandwiches and heat & eat items. Further, a superb selection of bulk (priced per pound) coffee, nuts (including blends) and candy. All items seemed to be of top freshness and quality. After trying the bacon from their meat department, I may not go back to the prepackaged stuff again! There is also a fair selection of different wines at various price points, a limited selection of liquors, and a cooler with beer. Price-wise, it depends on what you're looking at. Some things aren't *quite* at the Market Basket level, but more-or-less in line with Stop & Shop or Shaws. Other things (I'm looking at you, bulk Jelly Beans) seem like they're a couple bucks over what I'd expect. The store itself is very clean, and all the shelves are stocked nicely. All the staff I've had the pleasure of interacting with have been professional and kind. Finally, the music playing is classical, of all things! Makes you feel fancy so you spend more money? I'm not a psychologist, but it seems to work!
