Mi Mexico

Not sure where to start honestly. Mexican food is my all time favorite cuisine. I’m beyond confused at the number of good reviews this place has received… from start to finish, this meal was subpar — and FAR from “traditional Mexican food” like everyone else has been saying. Based on the sloppy photos many people had posted, I didn’t want to come here, but based on the number of good reviews, my husband forced me to come here. I was told to try their queso - “it’s the best,” they said. What a joke. With the consistency of milk and an absolute lack of flavor, I wouldn’t recommend it. The chips aren’t salted (great for our cardiac patients, so I guess salt your own). Our meals were all subpar too. An overall lack of flavor seemed to be a common theme across the board. Sucks we drove 1.5 hours to try this.

Very clean and beautifully decorated. The staff were very attentive and the service was excellent. The mushroom pico de gallo with the chips was different and more flavorful (delicious) than others I've had. The serving size was very good even with my big appetite. I had the Burrito al Pastor with sopapillas on the side. There was nothing wrong with the flavors in my burrito but nothing to write home about. I, personally, would have liked to have had more spicy heat in my burrito, and more layers of flavor, but even the jalapeños had no heat to them. The sopapillas seemed more like a flour tortilla cut into quarters and fried instead of being made the traditional way. Overall a "nice" culinary experience but lacking just enough to keep it from reaching the "Great" experience level.

I can't express enough how disappointed I was in this Mexican food experience, which happens to be my favorite type of food. I'm surprised by the many good reviews, and this place was referred to me by a local, too. What shocked me was the intentional effort to make a small amount seem more. The salsa was so watered down, that I had to put the whole bowl under my chin so that I would not spill everywhere. See the picture. I ordered the queso, and as you can see by the photo, it was the same situation. Again, I had to put the whole bowl under my mouth. Worse yet, the queso is most definitely NOT house made. It was either that cheap can of nacho sauce that you can get at Sam's or it was canned nacho cheese soup. Really terrible tasting. That cheese had never seen the side of a cow. Then I ordered the "divorced" enchiladas. The plate was so large and looked extremely impressive. But again, the restaurant skimped and made it look large. There was barely 1/4 inch high of meat inside each one. Then too much sauce was used on top to make it look like a lot was on the plate. I really felt duped. (Sorry, I can't get the photos to attach. Photo option doesn't show upon reviewing. Then tried to edit the review and attach that way, but then it wouldn't let me save it.)
