Nothing on the plates was bad, but.......the fries were the best.
That sums it up. Even though the food wasn't bad, I still wouldn't recommend El Bunker to a friend.
The restaurant's focus is seafood. They also offer a variety of typical Mexican fare, in addition to the seafood. Their menu is available on line at their website.
The details... It is not OKIEMEX. And that's fine. Mexican food comes in many varieties. I like to try varieties. This particular variety I don't favor. It just wasn't good enough to get enthusiastic about.
Starting with the disappointing salsa. It was a replication of spaghetti sauce served hot (as in temperature) and hot (as in taste) from red chili pepper. Heavy on the oregano. Other than bottled sauce there are no other options.
The beverage situation seems to be very limited. No diet Coke.
We had the "Milanese de Pollo" and the "Filete de Pescado a la Diabla." Both generous, large portions, served on plates able to accommodate the amount of food. Milanese de Pollo was two thin chicken breasts, coated with a good layer of bread crumbs and deep fried. It was served with very lightly seasoned beans and rice. The beans were different. A hint of cinnamon was noticeable. The tilapia filet was grilled and covered with a decent "Diabla" style sauce. Good burn as it should have, and thankfully, not mouth blistering. The rice; meh. Each meal had a sampling of salad [just for presentation I guess] with a miniscule drip of dressing. The dry salad made no contribution to the enjoyment of the meal. Well then. Nothing on the plates was bad, but.......the fries were the best.
This restaurant was previously operated as "Miami Nights." The facility, furnishings and upkeep seem to have deteriorated some, since our visit in early 2020.
