My first warning was the decrepit sign over the door in a dilapidated strip center. But, as the saying goes, "don't judge a book by its cover." The food was good. Not great. My usual order is fajitas, this time a chicken, steak, and chicken combo. The plate was served sizzling. Served with 3 small tortillas and the usual fixin's. El Mexicano doesn't serve any beans other than refried, so, no option for black beans, pinto or borracho. The shrimp in the dish were perfect, the chicken was dried out and there were about 6 little strips of steak. The grilled onions and peppers were very good. My wife's shrimp dish was very salty. She prefers the interpretation of Shrimp Mexicana at others Mexican restaurants. And for good measure, because we asked for some lime to squeeze on the shrimp and they tacked on $2 to the bill. But what really resulted in my barely average review was the cleanliness of El Mexicano; or rather, the lack of it. You'll notice a yellow bucket that hangs on the wall in the dining room, yes, in full sight of diners. I witnessed a server drop something on the floor, grab a cloth from the bucket and clean the floor. Then, she returned the cleaning cloth to the bucket. Moments later, another server used the same cloth to clean tables! The health department would have a hissy fit if they saw this. Worse, when I mentioned this to the manager, he was indifferent. I know he understood me, he just didn't care. If the manager is so indifferent to such an obvious health hazard, I can't fathom what goes on in the kitchen. El Mexicano is a "one and done" for us.

Love the food and great service! We have tried several places and this has become our go to!read more

But I felt La Lupita had slipped a bit. Initial service was excellent, we were greeted and seated promptly. Drinks were served and our order was taken. But once the food was brought to the table, our server was nowhere to be found. Refill for ice tea? Nope. We ordered one set of corn and one set of flour tortillas and got two orders of corn. It took us quite a while to find the server to get the error corrected. The complementary chips and salsa were way off. The chips were stale and they switched to a green salsa. Admittedly, a personal preference, but I liked the red better. My wife enjoyed her usual- camarones Mexicano. Served sizzling and perfectly done. I don't recall the mixed fajitas (my usual) as being so greasy. Again, served hot. Lots of peppers, onions, & grilled tomatoes. No jalapeños. I could have asked for some as a side and I'm sure they would accommodate. I also found it odd that La Lupita doesn't offer any beans other than refried. We asked for black beans or pinto or borracho. They're not offered. Yet they were able to serve refried black beans instead of the usual borracho or pinto refried version. Prices, inevitably, were up since our last visit. La Lupita is still a favorite for authentic Mexican food. We just caught them on an off day and it was still way ahead of most Mexican restaurants.

The shrimp were decent sized, perfectly grilled, and completely flavorless. Now, the fajitas. Just like in Jeff, Puerto Vallarta dices the chicken & beef rather than serving strips. A generous portion, perhaps lacking in onions & peppers, served sizzling hot. Again, only refried beans were offered. No black or boracho beans were available. And again, not a lot of seasoning for any special flavor. Puerto Vallarta offers lots of options on the menu.

We did the crab boil mild and it had just enough spice for a good kick of flavor without overpowering the crab. The shrimp were delicious. The mussels were enormous and flavorful. Oh and the raw oysters? Humongous. Not super briny and if you don't like that taste you'll love these. These were seriously some of the biggest oysters I've ever seen. And the crab was just perfect. This was easily a hundred times better than the upscale bougie seafood place across the river in Louisville. Our server was super nice. The whole place is a vibe.

Glad to say, this Outback Steakhouse really steps up when they trip up. First, there was a good 15 minute delay before serving our Bloomin' Onion. Jesse, our waiter, when he recognized the delay apologized, went back into the kitchen and rattled the cage, so to speak. Minutes later, the owner came by, apologized, and delivered a nice, hot, non-greasy Bloomin' Onion. Personalized service at its best. The next setback was with my wife's order. She ordered her usual Sirloin medium rare with a sweet potato. She was ok with honey butter and cinnamon, but nixed the brown sugar. When her meal was served, the steak was cold and the potato had the brown sugar. She sent it back, and again, the owner came by with her fully replaced meal. Now, what went right? Everything else. As I noted, the Bloomin' Onion was not greasy. It was hot & crisp. Our group of four devoured it. Next up was our side wedge salad. Excellent. A good sized wedge ( it could have been a full sized salad elsewhere), covered with bacon bits, blue cheese and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar that so many restaurants don't seem to realize is an essential part of the wedge. I went with the combo of 1/2 rack of ribs and a 6 oz sirloin. Fall off the bone ribs, with a maple glaze. The steak was cooked to order and served warm. The baked potato was done perfectly. Nice and "fluffy". One friend ordered the ribeye, his favorite cut of beef. He was a happy camper. His wife went with the sirloin and also cleaned her plate. Me? I've got leftovers for another dinner. Despite the "setbacks" we really enjoyed our dinner. Management went out of their way to compensate for the minor issues. That's how well run restaurants earn customer loyalty. We'll certainly be back.
