| - 2 for $20 deal going on here! Not that i ordered it because it was lunch and i had a coupon only good for $8 but this is a pretty awesome deal anywhere you go, just make sure you order water to keep the cost down. So on to the review...
This place is popping with color and decorations of authentic mexican life and culture. So many reds, oranges, blues, yellows you name it, they had it! Our booth was decorated so festively with one back rest being a mask with what looked like feathers and the other was a man working on a farm during the day. The designs were so outstanding you almost forget your at a restaurant. It was practically a hispanic art gallery aside from few sculptures.
So, we were greeted instantly upon entrance. Seated at the table of our choice and given menu. After we ordered our waters a young man brought up a basket of chips and salsa for munching. They have great salsa too, not too spicy not too mild but perfect for my taste buds. The chips were crispy and fresh witha slight buttery taste from the oil they are fried in. After a few minutes we ordered from the lunch menu.
They have lunch specials i might add for $5-$7 which is a great price but unfortunately we couldn't use the coupon on any of the specials. No big deal though. The lunch menu has plenty of items under $8 so it wasn't hard to choose. I ordered the taco salad and and chicken corn taco. My friend ordered a enchilada with extra onions and beans. Once the food came it was perfectly hot and nicely organized. The Taco salad was way bigger than I thought and i was a little upset that I ordered the extra taco. I thought it would be smaller, like the size of a burrito but this shell was about 8 inches long and 3 inches wide and 5 inches high..It was full of plenty of shredded chicken, lettuce, tomatoes and sour cream. It comes with melted cheese but i decided to save on the calories.
Her dish looked good as well. It need a little extra sauce but it was just as hot and fresh as mine was. The taco shell was so light and crispy. I would break pieces off and top it with the salad mixture as if it were a dip and boy was that great. I ate my taco first which was a bad idea because I didn't have enough room to finish my taco salad :( Anywho, i managed to finish most of it but was sad that I had to throw some of it away. I was eating rather slow so the bottom of the shell got a little soggy by the time i got to the end of it.
The service was well too. Our waiter always brought us whatever we needed in a timely manner and never showed a hostile face. We made him run back so many times for water, napkins, extra sauce, extra chips you name it. But all in all he made us very comfy. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a fast, cheap meal with lots of flavor!!
