Meican Food Imposter
by genet at Citysearch
Any self-respecting So Cal diner knows what real Mexican food is - and this it ain't. It's not easy to make Mexican cuisine anemic and bland (did they fly a chef in from England), but they've done it here. I ordered pork fajitas and I'm still wondering what kind of mamal I consumed, because it was not like any kind of pork I've tasted before. I mean that in a bad way. My wife's burrito was equally unappetizing. The kids, luckily ordered non-mexican fare - fish 'n Chips - and escaped unscathed as far as I could tell. The salsa should have been a tip off: watery and flat. Service is odd too. No hostess waiting at the entrance, and there's no obvious "greeting area" so you start wondering if you have come to the side door, or if it's a seat-yourself set-up or something. margaritas were tall, but weak.
- Pros: Kid Friendly
- Cons: Dull Dumbed Down Mex
