| - What a difference a week makes. After the bad experience trying to eat here last week I wasn't planning on coming back. Fortunately the folks running the show at Borracha reached out to me regarding my experience and wanted to make things right. My wife and I went back tonight at their request and they took great care of us.
The service was very good, especially considering they just recently opened. The hosts were very polite, friendly, and accommodating, even asking our seating preference of a booth or table. They sat us right away and our server Skyy made it over to our table to take our drink without delay. She was very helpful in explaining the menu and offering suggestions on apps, sides, and entrees. Through the whole meal Skyy took great care of us and was very friendly. The manager made sure to check in on us as well to ensure we were being well taken care of.
The chips and salsa were good. I especially liked that the chip basket and salsa bowl was large enough so you didn't have to ask for refills. We ordered guacamole to go along with the chips which was a good addition. The guacamole wasn't overly doctored with ingredients so the avocado was the star, just how we like it.
After seeing, hearing, and more importantly smelling the fajitas go by the table I couldn't resist. I went with the chicken and added the Mexican street corn that our server recommended. My wife went with the beef enchiladas with rice and beans.
I really enjoyed the fajitas. They came out hot and sizzling with very juicy chicken and carmelised peppers and onions. The presentation was very clean with an everything's included wood plank that neatly held the skillet, tortillas, and all the trimmings (Pico, sour cream, and cheese). The street corn was full of traditional flavor but comes off the cob which makes it easy to eat.
My wife liked her meal so I'll have to try the enchiladas at our next visit.
We ended the meal with the tres leches cake which we shared. After all the chips, guac, and salsa the cake came out the perfect size for sharing between two people. We both enjoyed it and would definitely order it again.
We even got some of the street tacos to go at the last minute which they turned around very quickly. They had great to go packaging which kept everything fresh and hot.
Overall we really enjoyed the experience and are thankful we gave it another shot.
