I was in the mood for a taco salad when the 11.00 am pre-lunch "munchies" hit. I found this place... where else? YELP! It was right down the street from my job and had decent reviews.
First impressions: This restaurant is located in the old Arby's across from SeaFood City. The building still looks like an Arby's but the interior has been nicely redecorated. The booths are super comfy.
Menu: very affordable selection of traditional Mexican and Mexican-American cuisine.
Service: Great! Friendly cashiers and food was out in a jiffy.
Food: the taco salad was ok. Allow me to explain. I know taco salads to come with ground beef. When I ordered, I was asked what type of protein I wanted in my salad. The question threw me off a bit. I was given a laundry list of meat selections and none were ground beef so I chose the carne asada. This was no longer a taco salad but a carne asada salad. I was in the mood for a taco salad so the dish didn't hit the spot for me. Otherwise, the dish was decent.
Overall: I'll return to give them a few more tries. I work nearby and it's nice to see a new local eatery nearby.
