Last night was our 2nd trip to Momocho and we had delightful visits here both times. We were seated in the bar area last night and it was Happy Hour! The house margarita was incredibly delish & it was $4! The taquitos were also 1/2 off. We smiled a whole lot last night!!!
We started with one of their incredible guacamoles. We had sampled several on our last visit and decided to go with the jicama, pineapple, habanero & mint this time. Spicy & loaded with flavor. I laughed when my husband said he found it too sweet - honey, there is fresh pineapple in there - if it wasn't a little sweet, I'd be worried! It had enough heat to keep him happy & I noticed he cleaned the bowl. Their fresh made chips are stellar!
We ended up ordering 3 varieties of the taquitos - carnitas (red chili adobo braised pork), machaca (coffee & chili ancho braised beef brisket) and chancho (adobo braised wild boar). All were served with mini corn tortillas and 2 different sauces for you to assemble at the table. The best of those sauces was the honey-chili chipotle mojo that came with the carnitas. We both couldn't get enough of this delightful sauce & literally used it on everything - nothing short of SPECTACULAR!!! Our server told us if we call 2 days in advance we could get a bottle of it!
Great service, delicious margaritas, inventive guacamole & a plethora of delicious, expertly prepared taquitos - recipe for a very happy evening!!!!
