The staff is good... The food was not, at least not what I got which was the chicharrones. It was so dry and hard. My friends got the chicken and brisket quesadillas. Those weren't bad but it was bland. The chips seemed like processed chips (like the taco shells) and the salsa like an upgraded jar of Pace. It may be that I'm not a fan of New Mexican, Mexican food. So, give it a try and decide for yourself. This is a very popular place with the locals.
Will be a regular here during these uncertain times! The carne adovada plate was delicious. It reminded me so much of my grandmother's recipe. I would ask for some cheese and onions on the side to taste. Also tried the brisket tacos. What a yummy mess! A little less lettuce would be good all around. I also like the fact they serve Mountain Dew. So few restaurants do and it's my preferred soft drink.
The food was terrific, however don't count on employees wearing masks. Be cautious when using curb side service. The young man who waited on me had his mask pulled down under his chin when approaching twice. He excused himself by saying he had the mask on all day and it was bugging him. I think he doesn't understand the purpose of wearing a mask is to protect the customers.
Good but not great. First I have to mention staff was nice But my food was not so. I wanted to like it. My burrito looked good.(beef and bean burrito xmas) Not sure what was going on with my green chilli but it had no flavor. Red was good. Overall experience was just okay.
How can you not like Garcia's? The service was really good and the server was available when we needed him. The food came out quickly and exactly how we ordered. It was hot and so tasty. The green Chile stew was delicious and the tres leches was amazing. The prices were also very reasonable.
