  • First timer. Dine-in for two. 8PM. Was actually intended to go to the burrito place (take a fat wild guess) just across the street but this place had esthetic appeal with colourful and whimsical decor with the menu conveniently largely posted outside. So we tried it out with one of us haven't eaten all day but both VERY hungry. The place got us at "Mexican Challenge"; the burrito platter as big as your head. Drool. Inside had seldom customers and music played a mix of mexican and 1980-1990 ballad songs. Very quaint with playful, classic, vibrant colourful mexican decor. Digged the framed old-timey Western wanted posters and beer-bottled salt and pepper shakers. Booths were spacious and clean. So far I'm impressed and excited for the atmosphere to manifest in food. Menu was extensive and screamed flavor and a variety of alcoholic drinks but we were set on for the head-sized burrito. Right away you're served with an adorable basket of tortilla chips and salsa. Went south immediately as the chips reminded me of those no-name-brand-chips that sat in the back of your cupboard for a year or more. Salsa looked home-made with inconsistent chunks of onion and green pepper but tasted blande so after a few munches it turnes into a sad attempt of a salsa. Then lo' and behold the "Mexican Challenge" wasn't much of a challenge at all, kinda. Looked delicious but after bites of it you find yourself dragging your taste buds to a one-dimensional mexican cliché. Very cheesy, which was great, and plenty of sauce to eat through easily. But lacked freshness in spices and texture. The side salad was squares of lettuce and shredded carrots with a vinaigrette; looked out of place but gave the crunch and freshness the platter needed. I actually poured the sad salsa unto the burrito to give depth. Or something. The challenge was starting to feel how a kid can't/doesn't want to finish leftover meatloaf for dinner towards the end of the meal. Immense hunger carried me through well enough to finish. Overall this place got me in esthetics. Friendly front of the house look and service but not sure about the back of the house. I would go back because it has potential. But I'll have to either go back by myself or another friend because like 50% of fellow Yelpers they were thoroughly disappointed and have no plans to go back.
