This was my first time trying Amigo Papa after seeing an IG reel that hyped it up. I decided to…read moretreat myself to a birthday lunch and headed to the Miami Blvd location. I got there early and actually waited 45 minutes for them to open--only for them to open late. When I approached the counter, there was no greeting, no smile--just cold energy. It was obvious there was a language barrier, but instead of trying to help, both women behind the counter ignored me when I asked for a menu. They continued talking to each other like I wasn't even there for an additional 10-12 minutes. After the wait, the attendant eventually came outside to prop up their large floppy menu sign, but it fell down again. She saw it fall, rolled her eyes, and just went back inside the food truck. As someone who had never ordered from there before, I was really relying on that sign to decide what to get. When I mentioned it to her at the window, she refused to come back out and fix it--so I had to prop it up myself. The whole situation felt so unprofessional. Honestly, I should've taken that as my sign to leave and not spend my money there. Again, even after all that waiting, I had to wait an additional 10-12 minutes before they were ready to even take my order. I came specifically for the birria corn, which they advertised on their IG page for this location. The woman told me they didn't have any birria of any kind today. I also asked about the pineapple agua fresca--also unavailable. Mind you, three more groups of customers came after me asking for the birria too--and they were just as disappointed to hear it wasn't being served and it was another couple's first time visiting also. I even saw a man who appeared to work for them unpacking his car with food items to deliver to their truck, and he confidently told me, "Oh, they have everything." That was completely misleading and clearly not the case. I was literally the first person in line, and I still ended up waiting over 35 minutes for my food--with no crowd. On top of that, I was being stared at like I was a problem. It made me feel incredibly uncomfortable and unwelcomed. I left feeling completely disappointed, especially since I had been genuinely excited to celebrate myself. The service was unpleasant, the vibe was off, and the reality did not match what they promote on social media. Sadly, I won't be back. They seem to cater to influencers online, but don't show that same hospitality to everyday customers.

Tried BBQ Jerk Chicken and mac n' cheese. It's a quarter chicken, deliciously roasted and slathered with tangy bbq sauce. The meat falls off the bone it's so tender and the sauce is just the right tang to tickle the tastebuds without making your eyes water. The chicken is accompanied by rice and beans and steamed veggies. More rice than beans, the rice is sticky and good. Beans could have been a little more heavily seasoned IMO, but still were good. Medley of steamed cabbage, carrots, onions was ok but nothing special. That mac n' cheese tho! Thick and gooey, with a nice crust of cheese baked on top. This side is a meal in itself. Definitely give these guys a try when you seen them. Good stuff.

I'm hoping, if they are still around, they see this and maybe sort their stuff out so that anyone can find them to get food.

As I pulled my Baguettaboutit sandwich out of its bag, all I could think of was my old pet shih…read moretzu, Flopsy. Even though he was neutered, every now and then he would get that look in his eye and promptly attach himself to your leg. You'd try to shake him off and he would be super-velcro'ed onto your limb, hanging on for dear life with lust in his doggie heart... But I digress. So yeah, the Baguettaboutit food truck... Baguettaboutit is based out of Chapel Hill so it's not a frequent visitor to Raleigh. I chased it down to Cary Crossroads and stopped in for a quick lunch. The truck looks brand spankin' new, bright royal blue and they have paper bags out front to mark up your order. I ordered up the Jersey Turnpike, sausage with red pepper sauce which took about 5+ minutes. Along with a bag o' chips and drink, we're talking about $8.50 which isn't bad. The Baguettaboutit sandwich is a pretty thing. Flour-dusted baguette with a thick sausage end peeping out (Flopsy!). And it's a tasty lunch, high-quality meat and crusty French bread. The red pepper sauce was creamy and decently flavored. By the time you work your way to the end of the sandwich, we're talking 3 - 4 inches of crusty bread and sauce left over, but still yum. Don't think there were any napkins available at the truck which would help a bit. For a first visit I was definitely impressed, I'll have to work my way through the rest of their baguette specials, six in total. Baguettaboutit puts out a solid sandwich that's perfectly portable and better than what you'd get from a Subway or Quizno, 3.5 stars. So I'm really looking forward to my next visit, if I can just only shake that image of my dog out of my head. One thing for sure, I'm not ordering ANY Baguettaboutit sandwiches with alfredo sauce, guaranteed...

There's not really a menu on the taco truck so you may have to ask. The reason why is probably because they have regulars. I'll be back!

I decided to sit at the bar since I was flying solo and just wanted a quick bite before going home. The decor on the inside is funky - almost like a club. The outside is absolutely gorgeous. I think they currently have it decorated to honor Dia de los Muertos and wow is it gorgeous. I grabbed a Diet Pepsi and just went with the first thing that caught my eye - the quesadilla bowl. Not sure what they're doing in the back but that Diet Pepsi was delightfully crisp. Like WOW. On its own it brought me back to life. And despite it feeling quite busy, they got my quesadilla bowl out to me quickly. Y'all - I am not sure what I was expecting. I mean, I read the description and it had me at shrimp, chicken, rice, beans, and guac, but this blew me away. I don't think I will ever stop thinking about how good this quesadilla bowl was. It had a ring of cheese quesadilla on the edge of the bowl! The flavors of the bowl were amazing, and it was plenty of food. I took some home and had them for lunch the next day. All in all, the meal was $25, which I feel is pretty reasonable for the amount of and quality of food you get. Definitely worth a stop in. I have heard people rave about Mezcalito for years and now you can add me to the list.

I visited Mezcalito in Durham with a friend on a Friday evening, primarily because I wanted to see…read moretheir Día de los Muertos installation, and it did not disappoint! As an Afro-Latina with Mexican roots through Texas, Día de los Muertos has a special cultural significance for me, so I was particularly excited to see the installation. The decorations were absolutely beautiful, with marigolds everywhere, colorful ribbons, and vibrant floral displays throughout the space. The installation was gorgeous, and I loved seeing such a colorful celebration of Día de los Muertos here in Durham. Now, onto food and drinks! I'm generally an enchilada girl, but I have a personal rule when trying a Mexican restaurant for the first time: I always order tacos. My philosophy is that if I don't like the tacos, chances are I'm probably not going to enjoy the enchiladas either. It's my little test of a Mexican restaurant, and I'm happy to report that Mezcalito passed! I ordered the spicy steak tacos, which came with three tacos, rice, and black beans. Everything was delicious! The steak was well-seasoned, the portions were satisfying, and I genuinely had no complaints about the food. Based on the tacos alone, I'd absolutely come back to try the enchiladas. For drinks, I started with the Hawiana Margarita, and it was fantastic! My friend ordered the piña jalapeño margarita and really enjoyed hers as well. The margaritas were HUGE, especially considering the fairly reasonable drink prices. We both followed those with a Corona and lime. Overall, the drinks were definitely a highlight of the evening. We arrived a little after 5:30 p.m. on a Friday without reservations and were seated immediately in the covered back patio area. At that point, the restaurant wasn't particularly crowded, and we could comfortably enjoy our conversation. By the time we left a little after 7:30 p.m., however, the place was packed! I love a lively restaurant, and Mezcalito certainly has a fun, energetic atmosphere. However, the noise level became pretty intense as the evening went on. Between the conversations, general restaurant noise, and traffic from the street directly behind the patio, it became increasingly difficult to hear each other. I don't typically struggle with noisy restaurants, but even I found myself having trouble following our conversation. To be fair, this was a Friday evening, so I imagine we were experiencing the beginning of the weekend rush. If you're hoping to catch up with friends over dinner without having to raise your voice, that's something I'd keep in mind. My other minor complaint was the bathroom situation. Unless I missed additional facilities, there appeared to be only two stalls in the women's restroom. With the restaurant as busy as it was later in the evening, that naturally meant a line. Not a dealbreaker, but definitely something that could be improved given how many people the restaurant accommodates. Overall, I'm giving Mezcalito a solid 4 out of 5 stars. The food was delicious, the margaritas were excellent, the prices were reasonable, and the Día de los Muertos decorations made the visit especially memorable. The noise level and limited restroom facilities were the only things keeping this from being a five-star experience. I'll absolutely return, especially to try the enchiladas and enjoy another margarita, but I'd probably aim for an earlier dinner or try a weekday to enjoy the atmosphere before the evening rush!
