I visited here with two friends, the restaurant was busy but we were seated promptly by a friendly host. Chips and salsa arrived immediately. As did our waiter to take drink orders. They have a selection of tequilas to make your margarita with...and that is where the good stuff stops. We ordered 3 margaritas with different tequilas. Why oh why in Pittsburgh do they continue to use bottled sours mix??? The stuff is just nasty and there isn't a real lemon or lime in it! If you are a Mexican restaurant you are going to sell a ton of margaritas, I guess I just don't understand. I ordered a beer as I couldn't/didn't want to drink that nasty margarita!
We ordered chicken nachos and a chile rellano appetizer. Along with a side of pico de gallo and jalapenos ala carte. When the appetizers came the chile rellano was drenched in sauce. This is something else I see in Pittsburgh all the time. They make many dishes (wet) I don't know why you would put a ton of sauce on a deep fried item as it just makes it really mushy. The jalapenos were jarred and I asked for fresh and the waiter quickly brought them out. Why when you are paying for them would they give you jarred? The chicken nachos were very good and everyone agreed that they were the best thing about this meal. Moist shredded chicken with chihuahua cheese.
I had the Enchiladas de Suiza which are grilled chicken with a green sauce, topped with white cheese. I thought the sauce was flavorless. I ate one of them, and boxed to take home. I was going to feed them to my friends dog when I got back home but ended up throwing them away. I don't know how that happens with a salsa verde there was no hot sauce on the table to fix it either. My two friends had the same dish which was the Enchiladas Supremo, this consisted of one of each cheese, chicken, beef and bean enchiladas with red sauce rice and beans. My one friend said it looked like dog food! Ha
So I know it is Pittsburgh, but this place is not authentic. I cook better Mexican at my house. My friends and I will probably never return. There are just better places to eat out there. Oh and another thing when approaching the front door there is a hand written sign on how to open the door. Seriously fix your door handle (Wexford is an upscale area).
