I was passing through the area and I decided to look on Yelp to find a new Mexican place in the area (yeah I know there are tons, but I wanted a really good one haha). So I came across this place and decided to give it a shot. We walked in and were immediately greeted and told we could sit wherever we'd like. There are two sitting areas; one in the front by the register and another toward the back. Seeing as it was cold outside, we opted for the rear seating area to avoid the wind from opening the door.
After sitting down the waitress immediately brought out chips, salsa, and water. We asked for a little time to decide what we wanted to try, and in the meantime devoured all of the chips haha. I ordered a huarache with red sauce to begin and chiles rellenos. Not long after ordering, the huarache was out. I had only tried it once before and this one looked a little different than what I had expected, but each place makes them a little different, right? Nevertheless I ate all of it and waited for the rest of the food to come out.
Maybe 10-15 minutes later the rest of the food was out and it looked great. The Huachinango looked nice and crispy with a generous helping of garlic, and the chiles although a little tiny, also looked good! The tortillas were homemade and really good! At one point I started eating them by themselves haha. The chiles had a healthy portion of cheese in them, and the sauce added a nice flavor. The rice and beans were also good. The Huachinango did have a crispy outside like it looked, but something was missing. I just couldn't put my finger on it!
Overall I had a positive experience, and I would give the place a solid 3.5, but considering how pleasant everyone was I bumped it up one star haha. I don't think I'd go out of my way to come here, but I would stop by again to try some other stuff.
