Cocina de los Lobos

Let's talk salsa. I'm not too big on chunky salsa and salsa that is so spicy, you can't taste anything but red-hot-fire-call-an-ambulance. The (red) salsa they serve at Cocina Lobos is perfect for me. So much so that I'm probably going back this week and order a couple containers of it. It's that good. It's like a tomato puree probably with green peppers, chilies, onions and other spices. It's got a nice orange-red color and a spice level that is enough to give a kick upon first taste but it doesn't make you grab a drink right away.

The Nacho de los Lobos is HUGE and comes out piping hot. I love that they throw in black olives in there. I've also tried the enchiladas and chimichangas and they're both delicious. The soup they serve before every meal is a highlight. It's a simple chicken broth with large chunks of carrots, zucchini and celery. I don't know how such a soup could be so simple yet brimming with flavor. It's phenomenal.

If you're a michelada fan order one here. The best one I've ever tasted was made here.

I came here with my dad and brother once. It's pretty nice. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was fun. The service was great as far as I can remember. I'll have to go back so I can update my review. Also, last time I went I wasn't 21. I can't wait to go back now and try their margaritas : )

Went here for dinner tonight. I've been there a couple times now and I have always had a good experience. The food is good, and the staff is friendly, and it is actually pretty cheap. Tuesdays are $1 tacos and I think young kids eat free every day. The salsa is alright, and the margaritas are good. It is never ever packed in here. So if you are looking for a Mexican place that is not too loud, this is the place to go.
