La Cocina De Mama Nena's

Mama Nena's is kind of confusing.  I used to get some great meals there but...somehow, they became simply...bland.  

The chicken is bland...when added to a burrito, the extra ingredients don't add anything to it...just more blandness.  

The guacamole used to be my fave in the Bridgeport/McKinley Park area but then something changed.  Bland.  

I ordered some chicken fajitas and they were good...but nothing exceptional.  I am sorry to say this because this is a place where you can see the owner work in the kitchen (it's all open so you can see all the action) and you know she's not slacking.  I'm not sure what happened to that unique home cooked touch.  

The pico de gallo/salsa is still very tasty.  The strange thing is that they used to give a small free basket of chips and the stuff...then, you had to order it...then it became free again.  I just never know what to expect.   If I don't get it for free, I will always ask for it.  That one item is worth paying for... Yum.
