| - Sub-medium-grade food with heaps of hipster pretentiousness. Do your Foodora driver/cyclist a favour and do not order from here. (Edit: I did not finish my food from here).
I walked through the front door by myself, the servers in the back didn't bother coming up to me. I walked to the back and asked for my Foodora pickup. They told me to go through the back door (yes, not the main door... the service entrance/garbage dump) to get my food. I've been to places that are $$$ and $$$$ on Yelp and they did not force the pickups to be through the service entrance.
I ordered three items: Carne Asada ($12.00), Barbacoa ($19.00), and Arroz a La Mexicana ($3.00).
As you will quickly see in the photos below, I got 2 tacos (which I am supposed to get) and one empty tortilla. Whoot! These were ok tacos. It's not worth it - I found much better ones at the Mucho Burrito under my building.
The Barbacoa (which is basically lamb) was not that great either - it might be my disdain for the restaurant still speaking. Actually, that's not it - the lamb isn't the most tender for the way it's cooked and barely tastes like lamb - if I was in China, I would think that this was fake lamb meat. For much less, I had better lamb at Jerk King... If you are in the area, do yourself a favour and take your money to "Under The Table" - where the wait staff are amazing and the food is great and cheap, the oxtail and I bet everything else there is way better and about 2/3rds the price of this place.
The Mexican rice (which they said would be purple rice... was not purple). It's the same on in the Barbacoa, which the rice was ok - it was a bit mushy though.
Overall, don't send your Foodora driver/cyclist there and make them feel like s**t about themselves because of the pretentiousness here. They don't even wrap the food that they put in the paper bag with a plastic bag. Now I have a weird lamb smell in my car.
