3 /5 FJ Fernandez: The restaurant is nicely decorated with an authentic flair and very clean. The service was good, though not extraordinary. Overall, a good experience with atmosphere and service.
In regard to the food we were brought tortilla chips and salsa to start. The tortillas chips were very good, not too thick or thin with a perfect crunch. The salsa was, to say the least, disappointing. It was watery, bland, and tasted like nothing but crushed canned tomatoes. We ordered the Queso Fundido with chorizo and at first were impressed by the presentation. It came out in a molcajete and was bubbling. However, our first impression was misleading as the cheese quickly became nothing more than a taffy-like clump of cheese. For the main course we shared the Birria Taco plate which came with 3 tacos, refried beans, Mexican rice and consomé. The tacos were very good and would rate a 4 out of 5. I’m not a fan of refried beans, however my wife is and she says they were excellent. The rice on the other hand reminded me of the rice we would get served at our HS cafeteria and definitely had that “not made here/fresh” taste. The star of the show was hands down the consomé. WOW!! It had a deep, rich, been cooked all day taste. When combined with the tacos it elevated the tacos to a 5/5 and when combined with the rice it made it bearable. Overall, we would say our experience was just average. Would we eat there again, maybe but we would not go out of our way for it.
