Street tacos
Mark W.

Oh boy. Haven't been this way in a while so I stopped here for a quick lunch. I had street tacos with Carnitas. They must make their salsa and sauces because they were unusual and terrific. I will definitely be back here. The food was fantastic.

The decor wasn't real fancy. The food was delicious and the waitress was very pleasant. Prices were not too bad.

The service is speedy, the food tasty, the menu expansive, and the prices reasonable (as best as anything is these days). Only overall con is that it is not a large place, so if you are a group of more than 4 people, you are going to have to wait as there's only a couple tables for 6 or more people. They also do have a small outside patio with a few extra tables if the weather is nice. There also are some seats at the bar. But they do try to keep things moving, so even as a larger group I haven't had to wait long. I have ordered multiple things and enjoyed them all- burritos, fajitas, ACP, and the like. Insider information: they make their corn tortillas in house, but not the flour ones. So get corn obviously. The top dish without question is the Mezcali's Best. Steak, chicken, and shrimp with peppers, onions, mushroom, zucchini topped with their signature creamy Chipotle cheese sauce. The sauce is tops and really elevates the dish. You can actually ask for that sauce to replace or top many of their other dishes too, do it! The portion is large and so flavorful. It is considered their most popular dish for a reason. Love the guacamole regional which is the chunky version with pico. The queso is also yummy. There is also a good lunch Menu! I have also ordered take out from here and been happy with the quality. Orders have been correct and the food hot. Sometimes you gotta call a few times to get through as they are so popular. Give Mezcali a try!

It's kept really clean and building is beautiful. The food is what keeps me coming back. I tried this place about a month ago give or take for the first time. It's across from my vet Americana Animal Hospital and now every time I'm in the area I grab food there. I use my get the catfish and shrimp combo. The service is always friendly, it's not waiter style but they will bring the food to you and make sure you have sauce and ect.

First time in here, a pretty good overall experience with just a couple negatives. First off,…read morerestaurant is very clean, employees worked quickly and they do have a small dining area for those of us who like to eat things fresh. I would say this place is mainly geared toward take-out however. My first negative would be that all drinks are in plastic bottles, including tea and lemonade that they appear to be making, and there isn't a recycling depository for dine in patrons. I can understand the sodas, especially if you are primarily doing takeout orders, but a recycling bin for the plastic would be appreciated. On the positive side of things, my po boy was nice and filling. Good amount of shrimp, and a decent amount of crab meat. The mac and cheese for my side was creamy and hot. I think next time I'd just do shrimp on the po boy, as the crab meat didn't make much of a dent featured alongside of it, flavor wise. Price was fair, and I could see myself returning again.

This was our second visit here since moving to the area. To start, the servers were great! Very…read morefriendly and we were seated quickly. We ordered drinks and an appetizer and they came out fairly quickly. The Korean BBQ Spring Rolls are very good! Now for the not so good part. We ordered the fish and chips to split- that was all we ordered after the appetizer and it took forever for our order to be brought to the table. We watched a couple tables around us, get their food before us, and they had been seated after us.. The server had to go back and check on our dish a couple times before it finally came out. I will say the fish and the chips were fabulous, but the corn was terrible and should probably not even be included on the dish. It was WAY overcooked and chewy. The coleslaw left quite a bit to be desired as well. No seasoning, no flavor and was just bland. When it says wasabi coleslaw, I am thinking it is going to have a little bit of a kick to it but nothing. They could definitely save themselves some money by eliminating the corn from this dish, make the coleslaw an option as an up charge and could lower the price on the dish in general or add a third piece of fish instead of the corn and coleslaw. Overall, it's definitely the best fish and chips we've had since moving to the area, but I would order it with no corn or coleslaw next time.

We finally had a chance to try Fishbones on Walker Avenue. We were looking for something casual and…read moreinviting and what we found was a rustic, engaging vibe at Fishbones. We started out with cocktails. I had a Hendricks dry martini straight up (it was delicious) and my wife had a Don't Call Me Sweetie which is mix of Hendrick's Gin, Lemon, Cucumber, Basil, Simple, Saline 15. It is very citrus heavy, so be advised. She had them cut it with a bit of cranberry to offset the citrus. For main courses, my wife had the grilled salmon and she chose sautéed garlic spinach and wasabi slaw as her sides. I ordered the shrimp and grits and my side was blackened green beans. Let's talk main course first. My wife's salmon was terrific. Flaky and moist and very tasty. My shrimp and grits was unique because it was a real balance between large pieces of shrimp and the grits. Many times you'll order this dish and end up with a pile of grits with some shrimp sprinkled on top. This version is very tasty and a really nice balance of flavors. The Cajun seasonings have it some kick, but it did not overpower. The side dishes are where we had a couple of surprises. First off the sautéed spinach was really delicious, but my wife's wasabi slaw was bland. It's a huge shocker because when you see the word wasabi, you expected to have some Asian kick to it. This did not. It was hard to even identify that it had wasabi in it. That was a disappointment. The surprise was the blackened green beans. They actually were one of the stars of the show. Their flavor and texture was just awesome. We could've ordered a huge bowl of it and eaten all of it. While it didn't need it, there was a dipping aïoli on the side, just in case we wanted to add that to the green bean experience. As I mentioned off the start, Fishbones is a very casual experience. It's very pub-like in that way. We really loved it and the wait staff, which is a team approach as anyone who passes you makes sure you're doing OK, were kind, upbeat and helpful. Even with the bland slaw, we can't lower our rating because overall the experience was terrific. We will definitely come back.

Mr. Kirin is another restaurant on our new office location bucket list. My coworkers and I frequent…read morehere quite a lot. They have a large menu that features Cajun seafood (more expensive), pasta with chicken or shrimp and you can pick your sauce, Japanese hibachi, and a few Chinese dishes. They also offer a large bubble tea menu. Like I said, a wide array of choices. You order at the counter and then get your drink cup and pick a table. They bring your food out to you in takeout boxes, which is actually quite convenient because of the large portion sizes. The woman who works the counter is very busy but nice if you can have more than a few seconds with her. She always answers questions well and is quick to bring extra sauces if needed. They do a heavy takeout business so poor thing is always swamped but she handles it well. I can't speak for the Cajun seafood but plan to get it to take home to my family one day. It's just too much for a work lunch. The hibachi menu is extensive and features more than your average chicken, shrimp, and steak. They have scallops, tilapia, and salmon. So good! And the prices for the hibachi is very reasonable. The ambiance is generic but I don't care with the food being so delicious and quick! I would give Mr. Kirin a solid 4.5 but had to round up for the sake of the stars.
