I have read some of the reviews before making my decision to come, just to give it a fair shot. This mexican BBQ theme, I was curious. First at arrival we walk in the shopping Plaza storefront restaurant. It was the Togo side and you wait to be seated on the other side. Simple what I assume to be Mexican Decor, an odd mix of bench and chairs at some tables. Large space able to accommodate big groups. This evening it is only two of us on a Tuesday evening. We were sat in a short amount of time, the place wasn't very busy. What I did notice or lack of was aroma of what I would think is a heavy used smoked equipment running. I did not smell anything close to that. Therefore I had to keep in mind that this may not be the usual american concept of BBQ, so keep an open mind.We started with the tostada flight. 3 tostadas I believe chicken beef and pork, very delicious, full of flavor, and mountain of texture and flavor profiles, very well done. Not in any way a BBQ item but good.My friends burnt ends were just ok she said, I did not like them, presentation great flavor fail. Moving on to the entrée we wanted the ribs but the came back and said they were out. I didn't come here to eat BBQ chicken so my Friend had the brisket sandwich, and I had the hot link combo. To start the food came out it looked delicious and presented well, however, it also came out of the kitchen Luke warm, this is something I read in a few other reviews and I dismissed it. Do not dismiss it. There is no way that my sausage should have been Luke warm even sitting under a heat lamp it should have been hotter, my friend said her brisket was the same. Now to the flavors, there was none on the meats bland. The hot link was not a link but seemed more like Kielbasa. Brisket no flavor we both needed sauce to help along the meal. The Brussel Sprouts were ok, my friend really liked them, I prefer mine without sweet chili sauce all over it. the Mac and cheese that some say was their favorite was, I was not a fan of. I assume it's a jalapeño mac and cheese, no thank you. It's not spicy just supposed to be the flavor I quess. They provided 2 sauces on the table one is I guess the original plain BBQ sauce and the other is the hot. Didn't try the hot but the mild was nothing to jump for either. The manager came by, I assume he was the manager and asked how everything was. I told him the truth, not a fan of the macaroni and the food came out Luke warm. He said oh sorry about that perhaps the kitchen rushed the food out. Thank you for letting me know. ..Honestly on a Tuesday evening, you out of ribs and they rushing food out not heated to proper temps then what will happen on busier days. Mind you the have business people obviously like the place the Togo orders were going out while I was there. I personally am disappointed in what I consumed except the tostada flight, I can't recommend anyone go try it. For real someone sensitive could get sick from that meat not reaching the right temperatures. If the correct that issue at least, maybe some of the people could look past the lack of flavor of the bbq.
