| - I feel really terrible to say, that we were very disappointed in this restaurant. The decor was very cute, and looks pretty much identical to Julio G's, the previous establishment. It was also very clean, and the server, hostess, etc. were very nice.
I was really impressed when I first looked at the menu because it looked really interesting and creative, offering some interesting choices for side dishes. The chips and salsa were very good. The chips were fresh and crispy, and the salsa was fresh and tasty. Our waiter offered us queso dip, before we looked at the menu. It was very good. I asked if there was meat in it, and he said no. However, after looking at the menu, it had chorizo in it. I rarely eat pork and never beef, so It was weird that I figured this out after eating quite a bit of it. I will say it was good though.
Then our entrees came. I had to search for my fish in my tacos. The fish was little tiny bits of end pieces of fish, and it was very greasy, and completely flavorless. Even the corn tortilla seemed flavorless. The chicken taco was ok. Way better than the fish, but nothing to write home about either. Bland. The black beans, were not hot, and they were very pasty and flavorless. I was excited to get the green chile rice for my side because I love green chile and used to live in New Mexico. However, I think it was Lipton or Rice-a-Roni rice from a bag. Very bland, flavorless, and tasted like it came from a package. Nothing special at all. Again very bland. Other people at our table had enchiladas, which were also very bland and in an ancho chile enchilada sauce, that just tasted chalky and had no flavor. They felt the same about the sides too. One person had the refried beans and said they had no flavor and another had spanish rice that had no flavor and tasted like it came from a package too.
If you are just into having chips, salsa, and a beer in a cool setting at happy hour, then this is your place, but don't order any food. Or if you are into really bland and boring Mexican food, and are not very adventurous, this is your place. As a resident of South Scottsdale, I was really disappointed that this place was not better. It is convenient for me and my husband, and I was really hoping this would be a cool new place for us. However, I don't think I will be back. If you want a good taco, Cien Agave is your place. It is only a mile down the street.
