First time here and we will be back. Its on Tanque Verde near Sabino Canyon Road and its closed on Mondays.
The entrance is through a long tiled hallway. It felt like we were walking through a friend's foyer in their home and the eating space itself was large but not overly spacious so again, the feeling i had was eating in someone's kitchen. Very comfortable. They have a patio but it was dark outside and too cold for us.
The service was excellent and the prices extremely reasonable and the portions more than adequate. All of us were happy with our meals. The chips were thin and crisp and fresh and the salsa was slightly zippy. We ordered guacamole which was good but could have been chunkier; a tad too creamy for my taste.
I had 2 tostadas; one chicken and the other ground beef. Very flavorful. Bill had tamales and enjoyed them. Every dish had refried beans and rice. Neither impressed me. The beans didn't even have any cheese on top and was a sad and unappealing scoop of brown-ness. The rice was dry.
Nice to find a good Mexican restaurant close to our new location on the east side. though my heart and stomach still belong to
Frankie's on Pima and Alvernon and their tacos dorados.
