| - I seriously believe that we ordered the wrong things. Let's start with the good things about our experience here. Restaurant looks clean, we requested to sit out at the patio since the weather was nice. Scott our server greeted us, put down the complimentary chips and salsa (which was alright - not bad not good). Service was okay. Scott checked us frequently and made sure our drinks were filled. We didn't really talk much, no how are you today/is this your first time here etc. But he wasn't rude. He was alright. Anyway we ordered the Chile Verde Shrimp Enchilada, Spicy hot wings, Jalapeño Burger and a pumpkin flan for dessert. We had the green tamales to go as well. For drinks my bf had dos equis and I had a raspberry hibiscus lemonade.
The pumpkin flan and the tamales were outstanding. The rest however, wasn't memorable.
Bad parts:
Ordered hot wings and it seemed we got buffalo flavored wings that was sprinkled by dried chili peppers. (See the picture) Nope, not even hot at all. It was a tad bit overcooked too so it was dry and wasnt juicy/succulent. My shrimp enchilada had the tiny shrimps inside, I know that shrimps are up this season since I work at a restaurant as well so I didn't really mind but the flavor was just lacking. The Mexican rice tasted like it was mixed with 3 cups of butter. I wasn't happy at all. Didn't finish it. My bf had their jalapeño burger and as Ive said in the description of my photo, it tasted like burger king with just salsa on top. The fries though were pretty decent. He didn't finish either. And we were starving when the food arrived.
All in all, sitting on the patio was a major plus but watch out what you order. If it's your first time, better ask what's popular first and probably stick with that. Would come back maybe weeks or a month from now but not so soon. My hope for chain restaurants are seriously dying.
