| - Came here during happy hour on a Friday and it was very dead- I thought it would be a little more crowded with customers but the staff was lively and friendly and our food came out quickly so can't complain!
We stared with the beef empanada which was tasty. Came with half the verde sauce and half the mole sauce on top, and while tasty, I wish would have been on the side because it took away from the soft crunch I was looking for in the empanada pastry.
I ordered four tacos- bistec, rajas, barbacoa, and chorizo. To my surprise, the rajas packed the most flavor but all were very well done. The tacos were double layered (I guess this is authentic Mexican style? I approve!) with corn tortillas, a scoop of rice, cilantro, and salsa.
My girlfriend got the enchiladas in the verde sauce. This came with rice and a zucchini/ squash medley. The enchiladas seemed a bit on the small side. She got one chicken, one beef and one cheese. The most disappointing thing was that the chicken and beef ones didn't have any cheese on them at all! This made for a rather dry and flavor-lacking experience. Honestly, the cheese one was the best one.
We also had the house marg for $5 which was very good as well. Complimented the dishes nicely. I could see some people claiming it was on the weaker side, but I'm not a big tequila guy so it was fine to me!
Apparently they have a Taco Tuesday deal (three tacos for $7) which I'd totally come back for. Our waitress was great and the food does seem authentic, albeit could use work in some areas. Id be interested in tasting some of their other dishes too!
