Takero Mucho

This is my favorite local Mexican spot. I've been a patron for about 15 years…read more This time I treated visiting friends to lunch and, of course, they were not disappointed. The chips & salsa but, specifically the cabbage salsa, are enjoyable staples. The tortilla soup is also a must have. Sometimes, I just grab the soup plus chips & salsa. I like the soup because it's hearty and full of fresh ingredients. This time we enjoyed tostadas, street tacos, & green chile stew along with the standard refried beans & Spanish rice. And we didn't forget the alcoholic libations, rounding it out with margaritas and Corona. There are no complaints here. The food is always on point. The restaurant itself is always clean, welcoming, & prepared for a good time. The staff are always friendly & attentive. I also enjoy the entertainment playing in the screens & the nights with the mariachi. They are available on the food delivery app, too.

Already planning on going back, and I didn't expect to say that walking in.

The chips and queso was also excellent. My partner also loved the quesabirria; he thought it was very flavorful and tasty.

My Monday's delivery order from this Quincy location of La Fogata was quite surprising, in a good…read moreway. I was glued to my home computer for work. I didn't want to drive even to one of the nearest restaurants to get food and this included La Fogata; I was that buried with work. I had no choice but to opt for a delivery even though this meant paying arm and leg of ridiculous fees. It was the day before Cinco de Mayo so my tired mind could only think of Mexican. La Fogata was one of the options and probably the closest Mexican restaurant. I have had both good and bad experiences with this La Fogata in the last so I sure was hoping for something at least decent. After browsing the menu, Dos ($20+) appeared a good portion so I placed it through one of the delivery apps. The time was in between lunch and dinner. As I followed the progress of it on the app, the restaurant was quite prompt about preparing my meal. The next moment I realized the driver was already on his way to my house. Wow, so quick! The restaurant is only about 5-7 minutes away from my house. It didn't take long before my food was placed right in front of my house. As I opened the plastic bag to inspect my much anticipated meal m, I realized that the restaurant did a fantastic job by separating the food into different parts/containers so certain things would stay fresh and not ruined by others. What a conscientious gesture this was! This sort of meticulous effort is something I truly appreciate and value. Now the food's quality.... Dos is a good portion indeed. I remember dining at the restaurant with a friend of mine a year or so ago. He had this dish which he enjoyed. As I started eating it myself I realized why he liked it so much. The ground beef was well cooked in spices with the perfect amount of salt. The refried beans were not too thick where its creaminess was just right. The salad part (lettuce, tomatoes and shredded cheese) were all together in one container to be away from the hot part of the dish. There was absolutely nothing wrong with the dish. And like I have already mentioned it surprised me. As this was a delivery order I can't speak of the restaurant's ambience and/or cleanliness but as far as I remember I had never found the dining room dirty when I dines in a few times in the past. Well, I have a reason to thank La Fogata today.

The margaritas, however, were a letdown. I ordered a Cadillac Margarita, expecting a freshly made cocktail with a Grand Marnier float. Instead, I watched the bartender pour it from a premixed jug, and there was no trace of Grand Marnier. What I received tasted more like a generic "top shelf" house margarita than a true Cadillac. I'd definitely come back for the food, but I wouldn't order another margarita. If you're charging Cadillac Margarita prices, the drink should actually contain the ingredients that make it a Cadillac Margarita.
