A standard activity in my world travels is to taste a city's interpretation of Mexican food and this was an amazing positive experience. Here's the highlights:
Good:
1. Simple easy to interpret menu for those new to Mexican cuisine
2. GREAT flavors and authentic taste from everything we ordered
3. Friendly service, wait staff was helpful in answering all questions and sharing feedback
Bad:
1. Don't have a bad thing to say about this place.
The ambiance is good, but more importantly, the food was amazing. The chef/owner at this restaurant has done a great job of being able to create a menu that contains authentic mexican cuisine and the food has authentic taste given that the most difficult thing for businesses overseas is to find the right ingredients when the authentic ones are hard to find.
Food tasted includes:
1. Guacamole - excellent
2. Quesadilla de Huitlacoche- excellent! (had to explain to a friend what Huitclacoche was and he was initially apprehensive, but one bite into this and he wanted another order)
3. Table salsa is super mild but flavorful
4. Tasted three tacos, loved them all, but listedin order of our favorites: taco al pastor, cochinita pibil, and carnitas. Yum
For drinks we had a Dos Equis (XX) from Mexico and the Mexican Mule a spin-off of the popular Moscow Mule which replaces vodka with Tequila, tasted great.
Will definitely be back to this place before my departure, looking forward to trying the tamales and mole poblano. Highly recommended.
