We have yet to find a hole-in-the-wall restaurant to love with that same type of devotion here in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
That is, until last weekend.
We had time on our hands (shocking, I know), so we decided to explore our area a bit and try out a hole-in-the-wall Mexican restaurant that we'd seen mentioned in some food blogs.
Amigo's Comida Casera is tucked away in a slightly run-down strip mall in Richardson, a northeastern DFW suburb.
The waiters constantly refill the salsa - excellent.
And they also bring you an amuse bouche - impressive for a hole-in-the-wall. Tasty, to boot.
Warning - this post includes a serious amount of food. And The Hayleys ate it all. But it was also the only meal we ate all day.
The queso is made with white cheese and slow roasted peppers, spinach and carrots. The flavor is a nice, mild spice.
Enchilada verde are topped with a very fresh tasting tomatillo sauce and come filled with finely shredded tender chicken.
Guiso is one of the house specialties. The tender slow roasted pork is complemented by a broth of spicy serrano pepper.
For dessert - yes, our waiter convinced us to go for dessert - we had "The Best Flan in Richardson." Our waiter explained that the flan, which looked like cheesecake, was flan Napolitano.
Whatever it was, it was delicious.
We also had to have a sopapilla. Also delicious.
All in all - delicious. I suppose you could probably tell that we liked it by the sheer amount of food that we ate. It's the type of restaurant that we could go and have anything off of the menu and be happy.
So I guess that means we'll be back. And that we like it. And that we've finally found a hole-in-the-wall Mexican restaurant in town with amazing food, great service and unbelievable prices.
{Yay!!}
