| - Adoro el lugar!
The first time I tried to go to this place, was one Friday night. i didn't have reservation and the waiting time was two hours...
This time, we made reservation a couple of hours before, and went there on a Thursday. What we didn't know, is that they have two locations really close of each other. So, we ended up walking back to Playa Cabana.
I liked the decoration and the patio. They have a trendy, modern, mexican-cantina vibe. Which was reflected in that delicious "paloma" I drank. It hasn't been common for me to find this drink abroad. Never thought I would find it in the perfect proportion of authentic ingredients. This paloma, was the best cocktail appetizer I had this year.
We ordered:
GUACA FRESCA
HOMEMADE CHIPS AND FRESH SALSA
TACOS DE PULPO
TACOS DE POLLO AL CARBON
TACOS AL PASTOR
TACOS DE LANGOSTA
Palomas, tequila, and beer!!!
It was really cool that they serve the salsa and the guacamole on the "molcajetes". The guacamole had too much lime for my taste, but the salsa was perfect.
My favorite item was: tacos de pulpo. A shame they treat them like appetizers, because they would be awesome like main course. The flavor hypnotized me, but they were only two, too small and with just one tortilla. I wanted to order more, but I was afraid it was going to be too much.
The tacos de langosta where the ones I didn't like much. Too greasy, messy and blah. The hardshell tastes like a bunuelo (fried bread), not like tortilla. You can't hold them, cut them or bite them in peace. They had enough lobster, but they lacked flavor.
The quality and flavor of my other options was great. I recommend them.
