| - I was really torn on this review. It was either going to be a 4 or a 2. Splitting the difference I ended up with 3.
Edit: upon rethinking I had to go with 2. If this was a three, nothing could ever be a two again.
Note: If I was just rating their salsas I would give them a 5/5. I will return to buy their sauces. They are fantastic.
But that's the thing with this place - they seem like they're experiencing growing pains that they just haven't worked out yet. The staff are quick and efficient, but that means after three seconds with the menu they want to know what you're going to order. The item names are authentically written in Mexican. It took her coming back three times before I even figured out where to look for what I might want. Finally, so as not to distress her, I just pointed at two pictures and went with it.
I ended up with three tacos and the Revolution sandwich.
The Revolution sandwich was fantastic - but at $12.00 more than a little over priced. For $12.00 you get a sandwich. The end. No salad, no chips, no nothing. In a day and age where that's enough for a full meal, a sandwich shouldn't be priced like that. But it was delicious. 5/5 for flavour.
And those chips - that's the problem. They bring out their three salsas at the beginning but then give you nothing to put them on. With these prices, you'd think free chips would be a given. But no, they want you to pay extra for that. The salsa is just to look at for the 15 to 20 minutes it takes to make your tacos.
The tacos ranged from great, to not so great. The chicken was dry and without flavour (but the salsas were AMAZING and made up for that.) The veggie taco was superb! Very flavourful. The pork one, I was just ready to leave by the time I was eating it.
Tacos are three for $10. And they're small. Once again, price is an issue.
Free chips, and 20% off would make this a 5 star joint.
