| - I must admit, I was holding a little bit of a grudge against you, Anejo.
You don't take reservations (fine, understandably, lots of places don't), but when I was scuppered showing up at 7:00 on a Friday to put my name down for a table, to find you don't even do a wait list then told to come back in 2 hours and try again then.
No thanks.
But I really like margaritas, so I suggested attempting to try my luck here on Thursday at 5:00 pm with a smaller group of friends.
Our table was right next to the shared entrance with Towa, thankfully it is a sheltered entrance so you aren't buffeted by arctic breezes every time someone enters.
We were seated along the long bench which was extremely comfy, I wanted to take an after work siesta.
One of the ex-contestants off of the bachelor Canada walked in, I didn't know who she was. So therefore I can conclude that Anejo brings in the Canadian reality celebrities, I was anxious to see if Kalan Porter or Evan from Road Rules would walk in next.
Our server was really friendly and entertaining, he applauded my drinking, which probably isn't a good thing for me. Us ladies all dived into the margarita menu, and I had to go for the classic, I wish there was more salt on the rim, but it was really tasty. Anejo's margaritas are not blended, which makes for a quick drink. Our server then informed me they do doubles, so double classic margaritas it was for me (I spent just under $40 on 3 margaritas)!
We ordered the guacamole and fire roasted salsa for the table, which are made (you guessed it) table side! It was nice, but it didn't seem to make that much, considering how large the serving vessels are, 5 of us ate it up very quickly. Maybe we were just super hungry?
Then it was time for the mains, I tried the feature taco which was crispy pork belly, these were simply some of the most mouth watering, taco goodness I have consumed. $17 for 3 tacos, I think it's about $14 for 3 if you order off the regular taco selections, but I don't care that I paid almost $20 bucks for mini flour half wraps, cause they were SO GOOD.
For those with a gluten sensitivity they do offer corn tortillas upon request.
I then further indulged and was the only one at the table who ordered a dessert, I had to try the molten chocolate cake. This dessert does take a little longer which is fine, except the rest of my party had to leave so I was left drinking my last double margarita and cramming molten chocolate and raspberry goodness into my face with just one friend left.
So, all in all, I really enjoyed my meal and experience. My one friend who did not order tacos, got the ahi tuna, said it was pretty tough, but If I do come back and decide to venture away from tacos, I'll probably try their mac and cheese and do some tequila sipping off the menu.
You redeemed yourself Anejo!
and it's my last review of the 30 day challenge!!! YAY
