I was in here today for lunch with my sister. I wasn't too thrilled with the place. I had been in here once before a couple of years ago and remember I didn't like it back then either, but thought maybe it would be better. I walked in and the place was busy and my sister was already there. The decor of this place is definitely not Mexican which would be ok if the food was Mexican. Sure they have mexican items on the menu, but both times I have eaten here I have thought I could make my own at home better. I had the vegetarian burrito that came with a side salad. The burrito had lots of nice fresh vegetables - but amazing there was nothing remotely mexican - no salsa - no guac- no sour cream- no beans - it was just vegetables and some jalapeno peppers. The salad was a mix of baby greens and some kind of creamy dressing - it had the taste of something more french than mexican.
The decor is dark, and in my opinion completely underwhelming. Our server was nice . One of my pet peeves happened here a beverage; ( in my case a diet coke ) with a glass that is three quarters filled with ice. Drives me nuts. Considering the low food cost of fountain pop - cut back on the ice a bit. I ordered my next one with no ice.
This place must do ok though, the real estate down at Deerfoot Meadows must not be cheap and they have been there for a couple of years. If i want good Mexican I will go to Salt and Pepper.
