I was here with clients not expecting much for Mexican food in Evansville, IN, but it was wonderful! Â I had the chicken fajita salad, which had tons of chicken, peppers, onions, cheese and lettuce. Â Whatever seasoning they used was the perfect amount. Â Chips and salsa were great as well. Â Service was fast and friendly. Â Decor was very cute.
Review Source:Los Bravos always on top of their game. Â They are always fast and friendly. Â We had warm chips and salsa right when we sat down and our drinks served to us right away. Â The white cheese dip is recommended. Â I also enjoy the chicken chimis, or the carne asada. Â Great place to go with some people and enjoy some margaritas in a festive atmosphere.
Review Source:Chips and salsa are passable. The fajita meat tastes like cardboard. Their tortillas must come out of a package. The guac is too thin without enough avocado flavor or spices.
The sopapilla made me gag. What I though was a melting scoop of ice cream turned out to be BUTTER, and the sopapilla itself was too oily and fried too long. It was heavy and crunchy, instead of light and puffy.
Whoever mopped must not have changed the water, because our area smelled of sour mop water and lysol. Not pleasant when you're trying to eat.
In my experience the staff is friendly and enjoys speaking Spanish with customers.
Here's how I rate Mexican food restaurants. I give the restaurant one star per category that's done well.
1. Chips
--Temperature (chips should be served hot)
--Flavor (no artificial flavors, please!)
2. Salsa
Green, red, mango, whatever.
Runny tomato sauce = unacceptable
3. Tortillas
Nothing beats homemade!!!
4. Fajita Meat
IS IT MARINATED?
I can't stand cardboard fajita beef and chicken!!
5. Extras
How're the beans, cheese, and guac?
I love this place, and am often here with my friends and family. They are extremely efficient and fast--if I'm in a big hurry, I could even eat there in 20 minutes (though I nearly always take longer--why rush?) I've never had a wrong order. I love their lunch Quesadilla Supreme, and #29 (burrito supreme), and they have positively delicious fajitas! Â But then again, what isn't good? Enchiladas especially!
I haven't had, but have heard their margaritas are by far the best in town.
