Senor Tequila, Winter Springs

I had lunch at this Mexican restaurant in between Longwood and Winter Springs on 434 on Thursday. I had the three item combo for $8 ($7.50 on the takeout menu) so I could sample the most items for you good people. I had a chicken tostada, a chicken burrito and a beef enchilada. It's pretty much those two options or cheese. The tostada was huge (toppings wise). The shredded chicken was good. A little salty. It also had cheese, lettuce and tomatoes on it. Fresh. The burrito was made from the same chicken (so same story). It was covered with melted cheese and looked (and was wrapped) like the enchilada. It had no other filling. The beef in the enchilada was ground beef. It was very salty. The worst of the three. It came with rice, steamed vegetables and pureed beans. The veggies may have been a component of the rice. It was all jammed together on the plate so it was hard to tell. All were satisfactory. They also served chips and salsa. Not bad. It was a huge platter. Too much for a normal person. I had to go "Man Versus Food" on it. They have a pretty large selection. They try to go beyond the basics. Prices top out at $18. Most things are around $10 at dinner. Lots of lunch items around $7. The place is huge. It must seat 100 in two sections. There is also a bar area. It was an upscale Chinese restaurant before. The decor is modern and understated. The most glaring weakness was the service. I had the distinct feeling that the mostly Hispanic staff had disdain for the customers. The waitress didn't even feel it was necessary to bring me back the change due on the bill. She just rounded it up to the nearest dollar. Of course that just made me take it out of her tip so I don't get the angle. The waitresses also disappeared from the dining area when not employed with a task. The food came out really fast, but, you will be at their mercy the rest of the meal. I can recommend it as a place to get a chain style (it may be one) Mexican food with a touch of authenticity. I'm not sure it's good enough to go too far out of your for. It did attract a fair number of people. Then again there isn't much choice in the area.
