| - I have to start off by saying, I really do miss Mi Pueblo's. Mi Casita is not Mi Pueblo by any stretch of the imagination. I would actually probably only give 3.5 stars but that's not an option, so we'll throw I a bonus half star in hopes that they don't let me down!
My boyfriend took his mom and I here for a birthday margarita, hoping they hadn't changed the recipe of those delicious Mi Pueblo margaritas...the margaritas were good, but lacked some of the kick from our good friend MP. His mom really liked the lime pepper salt that lined the glasses. The food was good, and the manager did tell us that they can make anything that was on the old menu. Apparently, the restaurant is managed by the same family as Mi Pueblo. My vegetable fajitas were made with fresh vegetables, not frozen, and I got a decent amount.
My boyfriend and his mom both ordered vegetable enchiladas, one did mole, one did rojo sauce. They both enjoyed their meals, especially mom.
A real highlight was the guacamole chipotle. It had a nice heat to it and was a hit with everyone at the table.
Service was very good. Attentive, friendly.
It's hard not to compare them to Mi Pueblo, since Mi Pueblo did set the bar very high. I compare them to other Mexican restaurants and they are a solid 3.5, and hopefully they will improve on the next visit to a 4.
