My fiance and I went back to Poco's last night and it was a much better experience! I didn't contact the manager about our most recent visit, before or during, so if you're reading this, kuddos to the staff and food!
I ordered the skinny margarita again, it was strong and flavorful. I also tried the "freshly squeezed margarita" which is just the alcohol and lime juice...similar to the skinny margarita but without the club soda. It was also strong and flavorful. My fiance ordered a regular margarita and had to stop after one so he could drive home ok, and he enjoyed his strong margarita (I tried a sip as well, delicious). Did I say STRONG enough? That's how we like it, and Poco's delivered!
The chicken fajitas were delicious. Usually I don't like fajitas unless served in a sizzling skillet, but this entree exceeded expectations. The red peppers and onions were cooked thoroughly and seasoned well, just like the chicken. I praise any restaurant that is generous with red peppers in fajitas as they cost more than other peppers, and a lot of places will only serve a couple of red slices with a ton of green peppers. My plate was full of red peppers and onions, perfect! The chicken was plentiful as well, my fiance helped finish mine after he devoured his steak fajitas. The beans and rice were tasty.
The salsas and guacamole were fresh and delicious this time! We are picky with guac and thoroughly enjoyed it with our fajitas. I don't like guac with a strong lime flavor, and Poco's made it well! I can't say "fresh" enough...that's the best word to describe the food.
The only downside is that I asked for water first with our margarita order and never received it, then our waiter was busy with other tables as well, so it was difficult to catch him to ask again. Water needs to be automatically delivered with the chips and salsa as you need it for the chips alone, but especially with margaritas added! We visited right when happy hour was ending, so it was busy in the back bar area.
We will definitely make this one of our regular spots for a fun, casual, dining out experience, especially when craving Mexican food. I like that the back bar area has a classy feel, but you are perfectly comfortable wearing yoga pants and a sweatshirt there. :) The wait staff is always nice too. Happy hour is from 4pm-6pm during the week with half off drinks and appetizers, so need to try that next!
