I really don't know what to say about this place. Do I rate the outside patio scene? Do I rate my dinner? Do I rate Buffy & Taffy getting completely wasted at the corner table?
I met up with some friends here some Fridays ago and the outside patio was loud and insane. My friends wanted to survery the scene so outside we sat, straining to hear each other. A couple of top shelf margaritas later, we were still waiting for dinner. I shouldn't put my expectations too high - I ordered fajitas and they were just ok. Nothing special. But I had to order dinner because taquitos wasn't going to cut it.
I will give them this, though. They have one salsa which is H-O-T. My generous friends let me have at the whole bowl. Serrano-less pico de gallo only goes so far for me.
So, well, am I going to go out of my way to drive through hell-ass traffic on the 202 on Friday after work just so I can sit at the Macayao Depot patio? Probably not. Although drunk Buffy and Taffy were pretty amusing.
But this place is what it is, and I shouldn't have expected much. And it doesn't make much of a case for me to try the Macayo's on Central but you know, stranger things have happened...
