| - Was in nearby Sibbald Point and I remembered the Food Network show featuring this restaurant so we decided to check it out. Decor wise, lots of funny signs and a festive style. Our waitress was lovely but the food took a while to get to us. Thing is, it was the same for the other two tables next to us, it looked like a lot of people waiting for food. I also ordered a blue Margarita, which was good but way too sweet. By the time our food got to us, we were super hungry but even with a big appetite, I felt let down by the food. We ordered tacos (mix &match), with pork carnitas, roasted beef with chorizo, chorizo with onions, marinated pork....all were dry and salty. It needed something fresh and crunchy. ..like some pico de gallo! How can a simple taco go so wrong? On a positive note I really enjoyed the homemade corn tortilla, crispy and tasted like it was just made. I had the enchiladas with 4 different sauces, including red, salsa Verde, salsa Poblana and mole. I enjoyed the mole sauce and salsa verde but the inside chicken seemed like the worst shredded quality of meat I've ever eaten at a restaurant. We tried different sides, including the Lime and Cilantro rice, Mexican rice, refried beans, and bean soup. All just ok. Mostly too salty. Overall, I liked the service and the atmosphere but the food left a lot to be desired.
