I’m sure everyone has at least one Ninfa’s/Tio Javi’s party story. Cinco de Mayo or just a stray Wednesday night that made Thursday very, very difficult, but this is about the food. Very high quality Tex/Mex. The tamales are shredded roast pork rather than ground pork. Almost like carnitas coated in masa. The beef enchilada was made with fajita steak and both enchilada sauces were very good. The chile releno was top notch as well and the rice and beans lived up to the rest of the plate. Crispy taco gringo to round out the Presidente combo. Two kinds of salsa and fresh, hot chips as well.
The bar staff always knows what they’re doing. The decor isn’t particularly special, but they do have a couple of shrine-like niches filled with mementos. Good place to hang, just easy to forget it’s over there on Constitution.
