From the start of the meal to the end everything was delicious. We received a fresh order of chips and some of the best salsa I’ve had from a Mexican restaurant. The salsa wasn’t plain and drab like many places can be. It had lots of flavor and just a little bit of spice, it could have been hotter but it was perfect for what it was. For my meal I got the Flautas Dinner which came with two flautas covered in sour cream, guacamole, and cheese, and a side of rice and beans. The flautas were excellent although there was a bit more sour cream then I really needed. The beans were different in a very good way, they had a slight red color to them and tasted great. The rice was standard fare but very good. My fiancee had a veggie burrito which she enjoyed but need to flavor up a bit with the salsa (which I also did with my flautas, because the salsa was tasty!).
I’ve passed this Mexican restaurant numerous times, both the Fountain Valley and the Orange locations. They have been in the Entertainment Guide coupon book for the last couple years but I was never really sure because I can be picky with Mexican food. But now I’m hooked. It’s up there with my other favorite Mexican food establishments.
Service was very nice. They came around a couple times to make sure everything was good and that our drinks were taken care of. It was a great dinner.
