| - Last time, we went here was during Taco Tuesday and waited for an hour or so to get seated. My first time there was less than impressive as everything seemed like an afterthought. But then I realized, it was busy that day. My server was probably swamped with a few tables and other obligations. So we decided to try it once again. This time with a reservation.
The seating was a lot faster than we expected with a choice of booth, table, or bar. We decided for a more intimate setting so booth was the selection for the night.
Upon seating, the chips and salsa were immediately placed to our table and our glasses were filled to the rim. Then, cues our waitress who was kind enough to give us a few minutes to brush over the menu and tended to our table as much as she could. A few times, she stopped by our table just to make sure we were okay and whether we needed anything else.
We ordered an appetizer sampler which was sheer genius. This came with two empanadas, two taquitos, two tostadas, and four quesadillas. I can't even begin to talk about this contraption. This honestly was the highlight of my dining experience and this alone, would fill you up given if you didn't share with anyone else. A real steal of the night when you're trying to look for variety. The empanadas had a flaky crust with a delicious beef stuffing in it. The taquitos were flavorful upon every bite while the tostadas became my favorite of all. They're super small in size-- almost like a circular nacho with beef toppings over it. The marinade on that meat was absolutely divine. When it comes to meat, this is the absolute example of how I want them all to taste like: hint of heat, sweet and salty, along with a juicy, tender texture. I couldn't get enough of it. The quesadillas were also very good as they used quality cheese to heighten the appetizer.
As a main entree, I decided to get the chicken burrito. Normally, this would come drenched in sauce but I'm happy my server was kind enough to suggest to put it on the side. Unlike any other burritos you get from a restaurant, this was something a tad bit special. All ingredients worked together to complete the entree in a way that made me wish I could stomach more.
My girlfriend got the grilled salmon on a bed of sautéed vegetables. She loved it as it was crispy on the bottom with the right seasoning to balance the plate. Pair this entree with rice, and you're golden. There was no way you could go wrong with that dish. A must try.
After our meal, we had a choice of dessert and decided to try their tres leche cake. I don't even know what to tell you... wow. There's a popular bakery around town who's well known for their tres leche... but I have to tell you that this cake absolutely dominated that dessert. It stood tall surrounding a sweetened milk topped with whipped cream. Soak the cake on the bath of that milk and you'll never want to leave. My god; it was good.
The service was exceptionally welcoming as their director of operations stopped by to chat with us. Complimenting and relating to my favorite football team, the Eagles. At the same time, my server went above and beyond to make sure we were okay. It was a different atmosphere from when we first visited and I'm very happy for the absolute change of hospitable gestures.
Now the question is, would I come back? Absolutely. I'll be grabbing more of those flavorful dishes with friends and family sometime in the near future.
