| - With all of the great reviews, we decided to check this place out Saturday. As we approached the address, we slowed down so that we would not miss the driveway. There was a sign, so we knew we had finally found it. As we pulled in we noticed a lot of rental cars. These cars were of various makes and years, all parked around the entire lot. There were people in the back part of the lot working on even more cars. It was a bit unsettling, but we parked in front of the restaurant so that we could see our own car.
The restaurant is fairly small, but very clean. You are able to see the kitchen, and watch the food being prepared. We were given the opportunity to choose our own canned or bottled beverage that was in a cooler, and chips with green salsa were brought to our table. The chips and salsa were very good. Fresh and flavorful.
We ordered the Shrimp Taco plate that came with rice and beans, along with tacos al pastor. We could hear the food sizzling as they placed it on the grill, so that was really nice. We also ordered guacamole, which came out right after we placed our order. It was fresh, bright green and tasted wonderful. It had red onion, and a nice lime flavor. Large chucks of avocado really made this a treat.
The tacos pastor was our favorite, besides the guacamole. These were so flavorful with tender meat seasoned just right. We were super excited about the shrimp tacos, but were disappointed. The colors and presentation were really nice. Big pieces of shrimp, and a slice of avocado made these look wonderful. But the sauce was so salty I almost could not eat it. My husband likes salt on pretty much everything, but it was a bit much for him as well. The beans were really good as well, and the rice was a nice addition.
