| - I'd been meaning to try this place for a long time now, especially since the reviews were so good, ESPECIALLY re: the fish tacos, which is a minor obsession of mine.
This restaurant is run by the nicest people and staff, which is why I'm sad to say that I didn't love my food. The fish was pre-fried! It was soggy and not crispy at all. It made me very sad and did not satisfy the big void in my heart that was craving crispy, fresh fish tacos. I'm a firm believer that any fried foods should be made to order.
I will say the prices are quite fair, even though the portions were not as big as I expected from reading the reviews here. But take that with a grain of salt, because I do have a healthy appetite and I can out-eat most men! *flexes stomach* After polishing off my fish taco meal - the salsa, the guac, the rice, both tacos, as well as my Jumex mango drink - I was just comfortably full.
They use very good tortillas here - they were fresh and they also double-tortilla their tacos (not sure why places do that but I don't mind at all!). The salsa and salad in my order were fresh and tasty. I could definitely have used more guac, though, and the rice was alright.
I ordered a Jumex mango drink because I love all things mango and it was very, very sweet. My delight in seeing that a can was only 150 calories quickly faded when I saw how much sugar was in it - it was like 50g or something crazy.
So all in all...super nice people here, but I really need freshly fried fish in my fried fish tacos!
