I have a list of many different restaurants to try and Añejo was one of them. We heard that Añejo does get quite busy on the weekends and that you cannot make a reservation so we decided to show up early for dinner.
By the time we got there (5:30) it was already busy so we were glad that we showed up when we did! Once we walked in we got escorted to a comfy corner booth and were briefly explained the menu.
As I looked over the drink menu I was drawn to the margaritas (also due to the fact that the server said that they were "the best in town") so I thought I would try the Strawberry Rhubarb.
Let me just say that the margaritas are AMAZING. Small but strong, the mango and chili coconut are my fav.
We ordered the guacamole that is prepared at your table to start. It was very fresh and delicious and I did enjoy the experience and the presentation. I will even say that it was my favourite choice of the night.
For my main I ordered the three soft tacos (2 with pork and 1 with chicken - we were sharing and both wanted to try the pork) with a side of lime cilantro rice. I really enjoyed the chicken but thought the pork was just alright. The rice was nicely seasoned and went great with the tacos. The other dish we ordered was the beef tenderloin molcajete, it came sizzling to the table with 2 small tortillas. We had to ask for more tortillas a couple times. The steak did have a nice flavor but it was kind of tough and I wasn't a big fan of the cactus leaf, it was very chewy and just felt like it was added purely to make the dish more exciting and didn't have much flavor.
I loved the décor and the nice atmosphere and we will certainly come back for some tacos and margaritas.....
TIP: Happy Hour is from 3-5 and it is $5 dollar margarita's and half off tacos... SO GOOD!
