Just had to give a shout out to our new restaurant find! Kevin and I were driving around the Sunset Hill / Blue Ridge neighborhoods last weekend and came upon this little Mexican restaurant. A very unassuming place...small brick building near the corner of NW 85th & 30th Ave (right next to the north entrance of Golden Garden's and Shilshole Bay Marina). We finally got around to checking it out late last week, and oh boy, have we been missing out!!
Now, any of you who know me, know I'm a self proclaimed Mexican food connoisseur...and by connoisseur, I mean boarder line obsessive. I love all things Mexican cuisine...especially melted cheese. So I should admit; their whole "authentic" label had me a bit apprehensive...."will there be enough melted cheese on my food??" was sadly my first thought (hey, I'm pregnant...give a girl a break!)
So, late last week, we wandered in, found a nice table by the window, ordered the queso dip (yep, they have authentic queso dip!!), and split the pork enchiladas with red sauce. I am happy to report that everything from the chips and salsa, to the dip and enchiladas, we're not only tasty, but amazingly unique and flavorful (with lots of cheese)!! And to top it off, the prices were decent and portions were large. We got out of there with the above order, plus two beers (both for Kevin, not to worry...) for $34.27; about what we'd pay at any other Mexican restaurant, and we had leftovers!
So seriously, the next time you're in our neck of the woods, stop in for a bite; you won't regret it! And if you'd like company, give us a call....we'd drop everything for another taste of that queso!!
