Visited: 10:30pm Thu. April 27, 2006
Entrance:
Mexican restaurant right next to the Verdi Park movie theater.
Interior:

Cutsy colorful setting with lots of wood, little paintings, and kiddy sized low chairs that are hard to get out of.
Machitos- classic cheddar cheese sauce, jitomate sauce, jalapeño peppers… €7.90

The chips were a bit stale, the nacho cheese sadly just thick pudding like nacho cheese, and there was too little tomato sauce. Actually, I kind of liked the cheese, as I started to just spoon it into my mouth since there weren’t enough chips. I’ve gotten too used to nachos with melted cheese piled on top.
Enfrijoladas- corn tortillas bathed in refried beans, cheese and cream €8.50

Watery bean sauce soup over chewy layers of tortilla with really salty and crumbly cheese on top.
Huevos Rancheros- Two eggs on top of fried tortillas and covered in salsa ranchera, with melted Oaxaca cheese, roasted prickly pear, guacamole, and refried beans €8.25

Big watery eggs sunny-side up on crispy tortilla chips with yummy tomato salsa. The slightly burned big chewy chunks of cheese was random to me, as was the bitter and plainish cactus but what do I know about mexican food!
