Chips and salsa

Okay ... had been to this place in 7-8 years when they were at their old location up the street. They have a much larger new space. The decorations were odd and all over the place. It was a pretty good atmosphere and there was live music outside at 6pm or so. We were inside and could still hear it some. The food is all over the place and more sports bar than Mexican restaurant. I ordered fajitas triple (steak, chicken, and shrimp. The platter was on a sizzling dish. The portion of meat was acceptable but as the old lady from the old Wendy's commercial said "Where's the Veggies". Im not sure if they were running low or what but honestly it was hard to find the onion or peppers. And astonishing but no rice and beans. So for the $25 or so price it was too small for all the wrong reasons. The wife wanted chicken casadilla. But it had buffalo sauce. We had a nice waiter from Romania but not sure why he didn't recommend no sauce but she wound up with shrimp & crab. Honestly I tried them and it was just weird. They were topped by some kind of yum yum type sauce.

After living in the area over six years, we decided it was time to try The Salted Rim, despite the so-so reviews. I'm so glad we did! We had a very nice experience: it's adorable inside, with a very inviting interior and strings of lights all around. We ordered margaritas and were told it was happy hour pricing, so they were $7 instead of $9. Tasty! The server brought complimentary chips and salsa - you could tell everything was fresh/homemade. For a Mexican restaurant, there are a surprising number of non-Mexican items on the menu. We both had items labeled "new" on the menu: tuna nachos and a Cajun grilled chicken sandwich served with homemade potato chips. Everything was delicious! The nachos were made with fried wontons versus corn chips - a clever decision. I forget all the toppings on my chicken sandwich, but it was all delicious. Service was quick and efficient too - we'll definitely return!

¡Margarita!

This hot day called for cold margs and chips and salsa. Great food! Great service! Arissa was super welcoming and took great care of us. The perfect place for a midday break when you don't want to deal with traffic. We are so happy we stumbled upon this spot. Highly recommend.

Great parking. Clean restaurant with lots seating (inside and out) and TVs to watch the Sunday games. The food was very good and the margaritas were amazing.

Quesadilla

"Can we go to The Salted Rim!?" "Can we go to The Salted Rim!?" "Can we go..." Finally we did. And... well not great, but not terrible. You should know it was a Sunday and a note posted on the bathroom door way way way back in the back of the restaurant a sign said the Rim was short staffed and to be patient. So yeah service was minimal to nonexistent which is too bad because she seemed like a fine person. C'est la vie. We had the Veggie quesadilla (me) and hamburger sliders (her); we started with some Queso. One of us liked the Queso. It was too thin, too soupy and decidedly not velvety. Plus a general complaint I have: why do most restaurants serve drippy Queso or salsa and chips without providing side plates? Need we have to ask? The sliders were good. The quesadilla better than expected and were quite substantial but lacked taste, so yeah me! Our drinks were not refilled and a horrifically dirty condiments bottle did not go with much of a mea culpa. "Can we go to The Salted Rim!?" Maybe not.

Now, food.... Didn't take a picture but the calamari was by far some of the best I've ever had (and I'm usually not a tentacle girl). I got the brunch taco flight off specials menu so I could try multiple variations. My daughter got the shrimp tacos and while they were good, the spicy sauce took over. Tropical crush was also on the specials menu and tasty. Would definitely come back! I want to try the jalapeno popper empanadas.

The vibes here are immaculate - this is what you imagine when you think coastal taqueria. From the wooden building to the bizarre layout, this is it. You can't go wrong with that! The hot sauces are homemade, the salsa tasted fresh, everything from a condiment perspective was good. Now again was it authentic, no, but come on... If you have to order two things I would get the corn appetizer - it is honestly one of the best things I've ever eaten in delaware, and then the surf and turf burrito because it is epic! Everything I tried was good. The drink situation could use some help...the margarita was fine, but i really wanted neat mezcal and that was incomprehsible to them to the point that I ended up with a mezcal margarita that had anejo mezcal in it...sad We'll be back!

Rather than a huge menu, it offers a very carefully curated menu of items that we have tried many of which are all delicious. Their appetizers are outstanding. We have ordered probably something of all of their options for entrées, all great super delicious. In addition, you have to try their margaritas. Their bar is great and their margaritas just are outstanding. Even enjoy getting one with the additional high level patron. It has gotten bigger, and yet the ambience is still really lovely. Service is always just right on spot. We enjoy their food so much that way often just do carry out. One of the nicest things that happened is that they now take reservations. We love this place. We know they have a bigger place on route one and we just love the one on 2nd Street the best because it's more personal. But they are both same food and outstanding places to eat.

Food came out relatively quick which we were appreciative of. Only thing I'll mention is that the cooks tend to cook the steaks a little to the rare side so if you like your steaks cooked well be aware of that.

I guess they were housemade, but needed some time in a pan or on the grill. Tasted raw and flour-y. Not good. Fillings were okay but nothing special - especially given the cost. $7 for a 4" taco. The yellow rice was gluey AND crunchy -- maybe the worst rice I've ever had! The decor was nice. Ambiance was passable. We were there at a slow time so the energy was pretty low. Service was just okay. Our waiter was new, maybe? He didn't seem very comfortable talking or familiar with the menu. Could've been a language issue or low hospitality IQ. Didn't offer us chips/salsa. I guess you have to order them but I didn't see it on the menu. We asked for no pickled onions on one of the tacos and that was missed. I've been to 100 better Mexican restaurants. We're locals and I guess this is a tourist trap to avoid.
