More importantly in my life, Huauchinango is an inexpensive and delicious Mexican restaurant that I can go to with ease.\n\nI am told the cuisine at Huauchinango is largely reflective of Mexico City cuisine.\n\nOn my first visit (only visit so far but I will be back) I had 3 quesidilla's. And they weren't the things we make at my house. They were joyful folded and sealed pockets of beef, chicken and shrimp with cheese, mushroom, onions, and other yummy stuff.\n\nI was wowed at the outset by the chips and salsa. Both made in house, the chips were not greasy. It came with three salsa's. One was a kind of a green chili tomatillo with a nice bright and fresh flavor and mild spice. The next was a red chili salsa that had very little tomato. It seemed a little watery at first but finished nicely with red chili heat. The third was orange in hue and very smooth. I was told it was habanero salsa. It seemed to be made primarily from smoothly blended roasted habanero. Hot stuff.\n\nThanks to Donald S for the review that put it on my radar and then meeting me and Brian S there for lunch. Outstanding!"^^ . "5"^^ .
