Greedy Eater 1 saw one of the News 25 guys on tv eating at this place and liking it. We figured we should give it a try. This place is located across Miller Park in Bloomington. The restaurant is right next to a grocery/bakery. The parking is so-so. We walked in to find that the place was almost full. There was one "full-time" waitress, while the other waitress was also the hostess and bartender. It was 3 minutes before we were seated. Then another 10 minutes before our order was taken. With the place being almost full, there probably should have been another waitress available.
Greedy Eater 2 Review:
I was expecting a real authentic Mexican meal. I ordered the Biftec a la Mexicana. The meal cost $8.99. What I received was a steak with peppers on top and some rice and beans. The steak was cooked well, but I wasn't there for a steak meal.
I wanted horchata to drink....not too much to ask in an "authentic Mexican restaurant"...but to my surprise...no horchata! I was told the owner's wife makes it when she feels like it, and it wasn't tonight. Chips and salsa will cost you $2.75, but we didn't order any.
The total bill (mine and Greedy Eater 1) cost $17.58 (including the tip).
Greedy Eater 1 Review:
I was expecting at least some good mexican food, but was pretty disappointed. I ordered the beef enchiladas. There were 3 enchiladas with rice and beans. Even though the enchiladas looked nice, they tasted dry because they didn't have sauce on them! If you go to some of the other mexican restaurants in the B-N area, they have sauce on their enchiladas. The rice and beans were so-so. If you want good mexican food, go to either Taqueria El Porton, Taqueria El Merendon, or Los Potrillos.
