Escondido Mexican Cuisine & Tequila Bar

Standard Tex mex spot! A fairly spacious restaurant without a ton of guests on a Saturday night. The chips and salsa were okay, the salsa was more tomato-ey than it was peppered or spiced. Guacamole was nicely chunky and tasty, could use a bit of salt! The chicken fajitas were served sizzling, and the chicken was nice and tender. The peppers and onions were spiced nicely and made for good fajitas. This is a good spot to bring your buddies, delete some cheap margs, and inhale guacamole.

Not the best I have ever had, it was edible but not worth it with the boro less then 5 minutes. We got a pulled pork burrito and tacos. The burrito had a lot of different flavors than what we expected but the pulled pork was tender and had a good taste. The tacos were mid, the chicken was not tender but I had a decent taste. The guacamole wasn’t good, chunks of it were just solid. Not worth $70 bucks…

I have been here about 4 times. Basically it was hit or miss. I have had decent food and then again not. The Salsa is fresh and has a bold not over powering flavor. The lime chicken was cooked properly and although it's actually called Cilantro-Lime chicken, it's one of the few dishes that is not overpowered with cilantro. Fajitas and quesadillas are a safe bet and you get what you expect. The Gringo Tacos were disappointing, the ground beef has an overall seasoned flavor that will make you question is it flavoring or freshness. Burritos and Chimichanga are heavier than need be. It's like heavy paste and beans are all you taste .. if you like Bean paste it's a plus. The rice and beans was served in the wrong serving dish where the presentation Made It difficult to even taste. And when I d
