"This place is so great! They have a lovely dog-friendly outdoor patio with heaters for the winter and ceiling fans for the summer. Two kinds of complimentary salsa come with fresh chips while you wait for your food, and they?re both good. One was fresh salsa and the other was a bit spicier, with a smoky chipotle flavor. We ordered two chicken dishes. First was chicken Jalisco (which is just pollo a la crema with veggies). The chicken was perfectly cooked, with a super creamy sauce and came piled high with grilled vegetables. The second dish was choripollo, and it was also fantastic. Again, the kitchen delivered perfectly moist chicken with a lovely sear, paired with a thick creamy cheese sauce. It was topped with what looked to be an entire gd sausage and it was a thing of beauty. There were at least four ounces of chorizo that had been sliced open and browned on the grill. It was as delicious as it looked. Side note: I asked for a side of sour cream and they delivered. Sometimes restaurants spoon an extra tablespoon of crema fresca of your plate and call it good, but this is a legit side that actually appeared at the same time as my order. These guys are on point. Saving the best for last, our server was Alex, and he was the real treasure for this meal. Alex is a ray of extremely competent sunshine. I highly recommend going off-peak so you can have a delightful little chat with him."
