| - Won't be going back. I am always looking for a good Mexican place-- on a specific search for the best guac in greater Phoenix--, and one of my coworkers thought we should give it a try. The one good thing is the decor inside- it really is nice.
Now on to the "no bueno" portion of our program... In summary, the food was bland, the food was cold, the service wasn't that great, and the salsa and the guacamole were just plain WEIRD. No need to overexplain bland and boring food (I had a chicken burrito, and I added cheese, rice, and sour cream), but I do want to point out that I ate GRISTLE in my chicken... which is what finally made me stop trying. Other items to note:
1. The server would barely glance at us, and when she came to ask for our order, she hadn't even asked for a drink order first. Also, we had to ask twice for more tortilla chips. I will say, though, that our main dishes came out fast... but mine was ice cold.
2. The flavor of the salsa was okay, but the texture was-- as another Yelper has described-- exactly like ketchup. Bizarre.
3. The guac. Oh the guac. Horrific. The first question was the pale green color. My friend and I spent at least 4 full minutes trying to figure out what one would mix with avocados to get that exact Lawrence Welk-era seafoam color. There was no onion, no peppers, no lime, NO flavor. After a few additional samplings (more out of morbid curiosity than anything), I came up with EGG. Yes, like hard-boiled egg whites. Color and texture. Bweck.
To my food-loving compatriots out there: don't do it. Not worth your time or money.
