El Poblano Mexican Restaurant

I'm not sure how I ended up here but I did!

Decent Mexican food, great prices and great drinks. It was cheap, I'll give it that much. Quite the crowd around lunch time and I'm not sure where they all came from. We had a party of 12 and the server handled herself great.

They need to improve on the chips/salsa. That was probably the least impressive part of the meal.

Nice Mexican restaurant in Chapin. Excellent lunch specials. Not a big fan of the salsa because they use horseradish so it taste like cocktail sauce. Again the good and service is good.

Well....the food is just okay. I wouldn't rave about it though. We have dined at many Mexican restaurants over the years, and this one is definitely not up to par with flavor compared to other Mexican restaurants.

The restaurant was busy for a lunch time crowd. Table was a little sticky. Too much clutter on the table. No room for big menus & our plates.
I ordered the Fish Tacos. First bite...a bone!  called the waiter over, showed him.  He didn't say anything, he just took my plate off the table.
I wasn't sure if it was a language barrier thing or what....so i told him I would get something else instead.

Sent it back & ordered the Vegetarian Quesadilla......bleh   :(
It was loaded with spinach...wet, soggy & had a kind of sour taste. It had a few mushrooms & onions inside...but I don't know why they put 5lbs of old spinach on it.
Hubby had the Chicken & Beef burritos.   He was also put off by the lack of flavor.
We were obviously disappointed. We really wanted this to be a fav little mexican place to eat, judging by the style, decor & many many menu options to choose from.

It started off great...with the friendly greeting & atmosphere.....but quickly took a nosedive with the food.
Completely bleh....we stopped on the way home for icecream just to get the sour taste from my mouth.
I guess it's busy because it's kind of out there in the country...and not many restaurant options around there.
We prefer to drive 20 or so minutes further out for better tasting food.
