| - I'm a bit on the fence for this one. On one hand, Cinko has a menu of not just incredibly cheap, but also interesting food AND a fantastic atmosphere of trendy music and decor. On the other hand, well, the food quality could be better. Maybe I didn't order the right thing, maybe I shouldn't expect more for something worth 5$ - but I think they can make a huge difference by just using fresher ingredients and being a tad more generous in their portions.
I went there last night with friends, and we each ordered one dish. I declined adding side dishes to my Fish and Chips tacos. The service was fast and pleasant, and soon they brought in nicely presented, colorful plates of food. Although my tacos had a good combination of fried fish and pico de gallo, they were also topped with 3-4 awkward fries (the "Chips" part), and lined with an almost non-existent layer of guacamole that was tasteless and brownish from oxidation. The tomatoes were a bit watery and too acidic, but given in great amount to fill in for the fish. The overall taste of good, but it left me neither hungry or full. So I payed my 5.75$ bill, added some tips and left.
I guess I ordered wrong. I think the best way would be to get more than one dish, and to share everything with friends. I'll try that next time!
