Taco Blvd

Overall: Such a fun spot for cheesecake! Definitely worth checking out if you're a cheesecake fan…read more Parking: There's a small parking lot right by the shop, but it can fill up pretty quickly. We were able to park, but I could see it being an issue during busy times. Seating/Ambiance: The indoor area is pretty small, with just a few tables. They also have some tables outside along the side, which is nice when the weather is good. It's more of a quick dessert stop than somewhere I'd plan to hang out for a long time. Cheesecake: You can get cheesecake by the slice or in individual jars, which I thought was a cute option. They have a good variety of flavors. We tried the Turtle cheesecake and it was delicious! Rich, creamy, and definitely hit the spot. Bonus: They have a loyalty/reward where after 10 jars, you get a free jar, which is a nice incentive if you live nearby or become a regular. One suggestion: My only complaint is that I wish they had a description of what's inside each cheesecake flavor. You have to ask about the ingredients/fillings for each one, which makes it a little harder to decide when there are so many options. Everyone's very nice. You select your cheesecake & then go to the end of the counter to pay. Overall: Cute little cheesecake shop with lots of fun flavors and the option to get individual jars. Parking and seating are limited, but the cheesecake is definitely worth a visit. Would come back to try more flavors!

The meringue was such a nice texture and the berry brightness and lemon was wonderful. The raspberry was perfectly tart in contrast with the nuttiness of the black sesame. The cookies and cream were just average to me, nothing special. Service was decent and you get to keep the jars. They have one dollar off frappes M-Thrs happy hour (3-5 i think?)

We waited by the Pullman Market porch area for our tasting and they came out with mini frozen hibiscus drinks. I expected sweet, but only had tart flavors that stimulated my palette. Finally, me and my friends were taken in to a private dark room with the seats surrounding the kitchen where the magic was about to happen. The 8 course comes with 4 different flavor profiles and 1 alcoholic drink per flavor type. The most memorable profile was umami with the jerk chicken and bitter with the banana and chocolate. These two topped off as my favorites. The chocolate with my banana was the best I had ever yet. The bowl had to be picked clean. The chefs walked us through each of the dishes and explaining the story behind as well as any questions we had. We all had a blast with the tasting and would come back again.

Mix-up aside, the food was still good -- flavorful, fresh, and clearly made with some heart in that kitchen. The place was clean, lively, and had good energy, which always makes a difference. The staff was very pleasant -- you could tell Spanish was their first language, but they understood English well enough that communication wasn't a problem at all. Everyone was kind and patient, and that counts just as much as the food. Even though I'm giving it three stars this time, that's more about the order mix-up than the food or service.

If this restaurant was in Mexico, it would work. It's not trying to be something it's not with fancy decor, it's just enough. It's actually quite huge inside. Ok here we go. The service itself could have been better. It wasn't crazy busy, but the waitresses seemed overwhelmed. If you check the website it states as much. The menus are also darn good at describing and picturing the menu items as is the website. The menu is in Spanish, but there is a scan for English translation which was great! Anyway onto the food...we had the choriqueso, pambazo, a taco of chicharon in green salsa, shrimp quesadillas, costillitas en salsa verde, and chile relleno. I don't even know where to begin. They begin with bringing you chips. They were warm and fresh. Much appreciated. The sauce they brought was just ok. That's not why we came. The appetizers that came out were for the most part great. The problem with each dish, the pambazo and the choriqueso was the actual chorizo. It lacked flavor. I'm going to attribute it to a bad batch of chorizo. Also there was an insane amount of queso in the pambazo. Depending on the bite that's all you tasted. It was authentic! Let me get one more negative out of the way. The rice and beans were quite unpleasant. I know it's just a side, but for a place this great to have mediocre rice and beans...you know. Onto to the greatness...the corn tortillas are quite possibly top three if not the best I've had. That's what set them apart from any other true Mexican place. Not Tex Mex. The shrimp quesadillas were huge, and the rich corn flavor from the tortilla only helped elevate and complement the cheese and shrimp. It is the best true quesadilla the midget has ever had. The chicharron taco in the green sauce was great! I'm more of the type that likes the chicharron with a little bit of a bite. Just personal preference. The green sauce on my costillas was a thing of beauty. I can see some not liking the amount of cilantro in the dish, seeing it may have too much. I like it, but the kids did say it was a bit much. The meat was tender, and had the right amount of seasoning. The greatest part is they actually gave me a choice of green or red sauce. I personally am not a fan of chile relleno, I've had too many bad ones, but the oldest offsprings was actually not bad. It wasn't super greasy. That was a a major plus! The filling was fantastic! The red and green table salsas were spicy and delicious. It was closer to a five, just couldn't get over the rice and beans being bad. We are most definitely coming back to try the rest of the menu. Who knows I may just give it a 5!

However, the service was excellent, and for that alone I give it three stars. Many times I have experienced in restaurants mediocre at best service. Due to inadequate training of restaurant waitstaff, the waitstaffs' poor attitudes, inadequate restaurant staffing or a blend thereof service in many restaurants can be lacking in one or more ways. I have no complaints about the service I received here. The mediocre meal was no fault of the server.
