| - I went there for dinner tonight. I left around 9:30 and I am still stuffed - it is about 2 hours later! My sister selected the restaurant as it catered to nearly every in attendance's eating habits & was chosen to commemorate her birthday. I had the Asado Vegetariano - A grilled Vegeterian Oatmeal Flank Steak, stuffed vegetable mole enchilada and cheese quesadilla, served with black beans, rice and guacamole.
Boy, was it delicious. I really enjoyed the vegetarian 'flank steak". It was a vegetarian option dined out, perfected. Especially at a Mexican place to boot. The mole enchilada was something different. Trying this restaurant for the first time, it is something I am certainly glad I tried because when I return, I'll know to opt out of that and replace it with more of those tasty cheese quesadillas. The mole was good, not to my liking though. Everything else was simply Divine... I loved the classic beans and rice, as well as the guacamole, which was also ordered as an appetizer dish (x2) for the table... there were 6 of us.
My stomach was too full for dessert, however I did manage to sample some of the cake my sister ordered.. tres leches was it's name. I'm not a fan of cakey desserts, my pleasentry is always ALWAYS chocolate, ALWAYS! SO I, lucky enough had the opportunity to try some of the churros con chocolate. The churros I know are known to be fabulously fattening as well as tender, soft, and flavourful. These ones, I have to say were alright, they were too crunchy and hard on the outside, I think they needed to be removed from the deep-fryer earlier than what they had been... Personally I think it's best if it's shared, as 4 mini churros, deep-fried batter and all is a bit much for one person. It tends to be very acidic.
All in all, I had a wonderful experience here and I will most definitely be back.
Mauricio Cabrera is extremely personable, charming and friendly. Not to mention easy on the eyes.
Next time I'm trying the ChocoFlan, the dessert I was so looking forward to, yet they ran out of.
