| - I like Mexican food. And, espesh, Baja-style tacos. Oh, and guac. Also, tequila gets me into trouble.
So, yea, Mexican food is a good time for all parties involved. Or, at very least: me.
I go to Milagro with some regularity, and it's definitely good in a pinch. The half-order of guacamole is generous for a two-person starter. The food doesn't shy away from heat when you want it. The chips are greasy-good. The drink options include tequila cocktails, sangrias and margaritas (more on those in the note, below).
My go-tos are the shrimp or the snapper tacos. I especially like the latter and so, apparently, does the general clientele: last night the server happily informed me that I was ordering "the most popular menu item!". The snapper is lightly beer-battered, topped with a crunchy slaw, and wrapped in a flour tortilla. Dos to an order, unless you want the entree portion which also comes with beans and rice.
It kinda bugs that when you ask for hot sauce you get a tiny thimble of stuff that you're charged $1.25 for but, well...it's dynamite-hot so I guess it _does_ pack an efficient punch. That said, Milagro isn't super cheap eats.
Cute decor that borders on the type of kitsch I love: hammered tin Mexican ornaments, bright colours, melted down candles.
Yelp note: they've recently started sweetening their margaritas with agave instead of sugar, and my taste buds register an improvement!
