Xalapa Review

You can guess what you're in for when the entry vista is dominated by frozen margarita machines and bags of supermarket corn chips. Clueless service is the order of the day. But wait: this place serves up some of the best Mexican food in town—more Tex-Mex than traditional, but one of the few places that will make things truly spicy on request and actually serves up some reasonably authentic fare. Then again, they have little competition. Don't expect to be wowed, but an ice-cold beer or margarita with a plate or two of quesadillas or the delicious tacos al pastor may just hit the spot.

    Just wanted to add that it opens from mondays to sundays at night, and also for lunch on saturdays and sundays only. The margarita is excellent and I recommend the pollo con mole or its enchilada version (enchilada poblana). Also the taco pastor is very good!! Very cheap!!
