Not Much To Look At, But The Food Is Very Good. This place is still very much open for business – there is another location (San Luis II) farther our High Point Road – but it didn’t take the place of this one.This is a small restaurant (was originally a fast food restaurant way back in the day), and it gets noisy when it gets crowded. The service is friendly, and attentive, with an unfocused moment or two thrown in.The chips are excellent, fresh and full of flavor. The salsa is pureed, with a nice amount of cilantro and onion, but it is really mild. There is a commercial hot sauce on the table, and that will jazz it up some.The Lunch Carnitas ($7.99) are excellent, and the portion size is large – the chunks of pork are well cooked, resulting in the crusty exterior & moist, tender interior that is the essence of this dish. Here it is served with an ample amount of lightly sauteed onion, beans, rice, pico de gallo, and well made, flavorful. guacamole. You have your choice of tortilla, and I chose flour this time because I’d not tried them before – but I much prefer the fresh corn tortillas they make in house.The Beef Taco is typical, but is very tasty. The Chili Relleno is smaller than many you’ll encounter, with only a small piece of pepper, smothered in well seasoned beef and cheese – very much like the one served at La Bamba. The flavor is excellent, but I really like the full poblano. The rice and beans are also rather typically, good but nothing out of the ordinary. The size of the portions on the lunch specials are also large.Didn’t get the Fish Tacos this time, but I still believe they are one of the best dishes on their menu, along with most other seafood choices. I like most things here, and it is one of my favorite Mexican restaurants, not at the very top, but a very solid place.
