Aretha Franklin might had been treated mean and treated cruel but... This chain made a fool of me... Twice.
No wonder I don't eat Latin grub intown often. Everything is just so bland and pedestrian. This wannabe Cuban and Mexi-joint is perfect grub for the suburban gringo who thinks Taco Mac is an export from Mexico. If it doesn't come with lettuce, tomatoes, orange shredded cheez and a crunch... it ain't a taco.
Like most dumb down Latin chain restos, they are notorious for lighting fast speed and service... Take your order, bring out the food and disappear for the rest of the night. Hell, you know it's made in America when all the servers are dress like Speedy Gonzalez with the really bad Mexican't accent. They wanna get you in and out fast and head home because the grub will make you run for the border... Twice.
Chips and Salsa might as well be Fritos and Rotel... It would be spicier!
Artichoke Cheez Dip can make Art dip his chip in cheez and choke. Did they use bleu cheez or was it just moldy? It seemed like it sat in a cave for weeks.
Paella was Mexican Fwied Wice served in a cold cast iron pan. Chico and Chang's laughs at them. No crispy yum yums on the bottom... I think they used Pam spray. I wanted to throw this outta the Pella window.
What's with the oven mitts when this pan was colder than my cerveza? Was it all just for show? ....Sho'nuff, Fo'sho!
Veggie Enchilada is best when accompanied by a number to the left of it. Who wants to pronounce 6 syllables in a foreign tongue when you can order with your fingers on one hand? Oh wait, silly me, enchiladas are not made in Mexico... but Idaho. Yes, I da ho because I just sold out coming here.
I know I wouldn't come here for the food... but the view ain't too shabby. There's a lot of hot mess and pink fury up in this piece. Just go next door for decent 'ZA and enjoy a slice of pie while watching some as well.
Ay chihuahua... 2.5 Stars.
