It had been a long, long time since eating at a location of this chain - at least I guess it's still a viable chain, or maybe it just the 2 local restaurants, the other on S. Church Street in Burlington. The place is small, and kind of chopped up in segments, making it seem even smaller, crowded.
The menu is typical Tex-Mex, and is more compact than some restaurants of this type. We chose a combination of typical Tex-Mex items to get a feel for the place - Ground Beef Burrito, Chile Relleno, and a Chicken Enchilada, coming with Rice & Beans, of course..
The complimentary salsa was pretty good, the chips fresh. The salsa is a puree with some onion and cilantro taste, but little heat. The order came out of the kitchen quickly and the portions were well sized. Everything on the combo was pretty good, especially the Chili Relleno - a full poblano pepper filled with nicely seasoned beef. The rice also was above average.
The Carnitas were rather large, whole chunks of pork, among the largest I've encountered that wasn't walking on all fours. The outside was nicely crusted, but the meat was less than tender, and was on the bland side. The remainder of the plate was nice, if not exceptional. The service was friendly and attentive, no complaints here.
Not a bad spot for a quick Tex-Mex fix, but the food here is just a little above average.
