Because there are no truly authentic Mexican restaurants within a 50 mile radius of New Hudson, we have given this place several tries. It gets slightly better each time, but that may be due to familiarity setting in. Both my husband and I have found one item each that we like. I do like the beef tacos (although, they are by no means authentic). I have also tried the tostada and the cheese enchilada, neither of which were particularly good. The tostada had too many bland beans piled high, and the cheese enchilada is almost flavorless. The margaritas are good, though. While the restaurant is nice and clean, has a pleasant atmosphere, and very good service, the food is the furthest thing from authentic. Like other posters, we too, have lived and traveled elsewhere and enjoyed the real thing. I could let it all slide, and just accept it for what it is (the way you shouldn't compare carob to chocolate, for example), if it weren't for the salsa. It is marinara sauce, plain and simple. They even serve it warm. All in all, we'll probably be back (mostly out of desperation), not because it's great, and certainly not because it's ""authentic"".
Pros: Good margaritas, good atmosphere, good service.
Cons: The food is not authentic. The salsa is marinara sauce - very off putting!
