This place was recommended to us by a random stranger we met while warming around the fire pit in the village. About 2 nights later we decided to check it out.
We were pleasantly surprised and impressed with the quality of every dish we tried. But woefully unprepared for the quantity of the bounty that was set before us.
What we ordered: 1 cup of albondigas soup, 1 cup of pollo y arroz, 2 flauta plate with 1 beef, 1 chicken, all rice, no beans and no guacamole or sour cream, and an a la carte shrimp taco.
First and most importantly: everything came precisely as requested.
The soups were amazing. You can taste the quality in the broth and I easily could have eaten these as a meal unto itself. They were both so delicious. Both my wife and I said “wow” upon the first drop of soup hitting our tongues.
Then the main course arrived. And we realized we had made a grave mistake. A delicious, yet grave mistake. And we don’t regret it for one second.
The flauta were huge. I was expecting something small, like a taquito size, that’s the size of flauta I’m familiar with. These flautas were each about the size of half of a burrito. In the picture I included a full size knife for scale.
I cut them in half and we each had half of each flauta. My wife had the shrimp taco to herself.
So once we got past the size, we got to the taste. Just perfect. The meat was flavorful just by itself. Mixed with the rest of everything was just great. I cannot recommend this enough. My wife also greatly enjoyed her taco, but due to the quantity of food, ended up just eating the filling of the taco and leaving the tortilla behind, just too much food.
The rice was also very flavorful just by itself. I could probably just enjoy the rice if I had nothing else, and for me, that’s saying a LOT, I usually find rice to be somewhat bland and just have it to fill out the plate, this definitely complemented the dish.
The salsa with the chips was excellent, and a nice medium heat. The chips was literally the only thing I would improve, and that is a very minor improvement to make, they needed more salt, that’s it. Just a touch more salt.
If you want Mexican, take the drive to Roberto’s cafe. You will NOT be disappointed.
