| - In the heart of Saint Henri, on Notre-Dame street, bunch of restaurants on the same block, and side by side. Here is Lupita, a simple and adorable Mexican "diner", Run by mother and two daughters. Few chairs by the window, and four big picnic tables. It was mildly colorful compared to any other Mexican restaurants, where multi colors are flaunting in your face.
Enthusiastic service by our server. Simple menus, Tortas, and some extra dishes too. My sister got Tortas Al Pastor (grilled chicken, grilled pineapples...and more). She loved her sandwich to the T. It was enormous that she had difficulty to finish it completely. I ordered the drink, perro salado (tequila based) and vegetarian flautas. My drink was mind blowing. My flautas was good, but it could have been better; slight zing was missing. Then we asked for churros on the menu, but they only serve churros on the weekend. That was saddening.
Initially, it wasn't busy, later on more customers came in, so the music became louder. It killed the vibe. Second server who took over, was little abrasive, so it was disappointing.
