I tried this Mexican restaurant on the west side of I4 on Monday at lunch. They said the have been there for six years. I thought I had been to every place around there. No evidence on this site though. I grabbed a huarache (sandal) with carnitas to go for $15. It was good. I do wish that Mexican (and bbq) places would do away with pulling their meats into little, long piles of string. This pork had the usual dried out portions. Those really needed to not be stringy. Wears out your molars. If they don't cause a choking hazard. The lettuce, avocado, pickled onions etc were fresh and clean enough. I saw a plate of sopes (spheres) that also looked above board. They don't seem to just slop things together. Wonderful, simple plating. Didn't include chips and salsa. Saw tables there getting them. Not sure if they were charged. I learned of this through a circular. Two for one offers there if you get two drinks. And daily bargains like three tacos for $5 on Tuesday. The menu is large. Ambitious. They have the ususals (fajitas, burritos, etc) with things like octopus or parrillada plates. Prices rise to $45. Eight soups. Ceviche. Oysters. Mojarra. Pargo. Michoacan pork. Birria. Tortas. Different options and price points for most budgets. I was reasonably impressed. The place must have been an old Pizza Hut or something. Gray and black with and octopus mural. Low ceiling. Small bar. Patio. Two sets of booths for four on either wall. Two tables for eight and two for four in between. You could way worse. They were even sophisticated enough to have/hand out a $10 gift card with a QR Code that you could use to order directly with them. Means "the bell".
