So I came here for a dinner one night here at the Mall of America during my short trip to Minnesota. And I wanna start off with the reason this place is five stars instead of four stars, their free salsa. You know how free Mexican restaurant salsa is. Well, this place was literally five times better. It was deeper, darker, tasted like it was made with chipotle peppers. I think we went through six little bowls of the stuff. I'm not kidding. Remember that I said this.
We jumped right into entrees. I got the fajitas (On a bed of caramelized onion and bell peppers. Garnished with roasted red pepper and cilantro. Served with guacamole, sour cream, pico de gallo, rice, beans and fresh flour tortillas). More specifically the off-menu mega combination of the steak, chicken, and AND shrimp. I asked, and they delivered. I got some shrimp.
But, they were not good shrimp. They wrapped the shrimp in the saltiest bacon they could find. I do not recommend this pro-tip. It was honestly bad. But the steak and the chicken were excellent. Cooked well, charred just enough, tender. With their lovely flour tortillas, I made many taquitos and had a great meal, with that perfect salsa.
I also got to sample the Enchiladas Veracruz (Two pulled chicken, spinach and monterey jack enchiladas with tomatillo sauce, marinated vegetables and queso fresco). These were just so good. Very well seasoned chicken, a little kick of the jack cheese with the coolness of the tomatillo sauce. I was a fan.
Overall, if you like Mexican food, and if you happen to be at the Mall of America, I recommend you come here. I recommend you put that amazing salsa on everything you eat, and I recommend you ask them to not wrap anything in bacon.
