| - For Pittsburgh, this is not too bad if a place. Now, if you're from the south or southwest, forget trying to find authentic Mexican or texmex on pittsurgh or in the surrounding area because it just doesn't exist, no matter what any Pittsburgh yelper says.
On the plus side: food was served fairly quickly, were made with the correct ingredients and had jalapenos (unlike most of the so-called "mexican" restaurants around here. Service was nice, average, polite...always nice qualities to have in service.
On the down-side, like I said, this doesn't even come close to the rich flavors of true Mexican food as I'm pretty sure they'd go under if they did flavor it up because Pittsburgh palets tend to be quite sensitive to bold flavors. Flan was ok but missed the mark with the sauce..could have been bolder with the sweetness. Lastly, they close at 10:30pm on a Friday. Sadly, pittburgh's demographics (average age, 55) means almost nothing stays open past 9 or 10.
I would love to see this place stay open till 2 or 3. Would be a great place to grab a late bite or hang after the clubs shut down, but, then again..average age of 55 also means bedtime by 9. Oh well, what are you gonna do...it's Pittsburgh. I'd still recommend this place as one of the best that you can find in the greater Pittsburgh area.
