This place is amazing. The House Made Salsa Roja, Corn Chips, and Fried Plantains are a great way to start the meal. The Albondigas Tacos are sooo flavorful, and the meatball and queso complement each other so well! The meatball literally melts in your mouth. While Cajun food in New Orleans is a given, this place is a must-visit for any tourist!
The meat tacos was good the other ones nothing special, we have ordered a burrito and a duck enchiladas, I had to return the enchiladas because it tasted like melted cheese all over and it was too much. The waitress was really nice and replaced it by a chicken quesadilla. I wish that it was with pulled chicken because it would have been much tastier. Generally the food is good but way too fat and oily, nothing healthy on the Menu.
This is a high quality modern Mexican kitchen not a typical Mexican place.. oh and the margaritas are great!
For the main dish we ordered the enchiladas but it was so cheesy we couldn't taste anything but cheese, then our amazing waitress who came just in time to ask us how we're doing, immediately offered to change our dish, so we took the quesadilla instead which was great.
A word of caution, we ate so much that we were out-of-order for the rest of the day... Pace yourselves..
Head and shoulders above anywhere else we've been in this category. Nothing simple about the flavours in these simple dishes. Details like the sturdiness of the tortillas, or how clean the slices of jalapeno were stuck out for me. Everything we tried was terrific. My wife said that if we were to be in town a week, she would eat here at least twice. Service was great, room modern and cool, great visit!
