Reviews
This dish isn’t a traditional Mexican dish – it’s actually more Caribbean – but due to the massive demand for it in the South, it’s a staple of menus
here but not really found anywhere else in the US – that’s why I had to make sure to get it while I was here as I hadn’t had it before and I know
this place is known for it
This food was absolutely fantastic
The dish came with a TON of grilled chicken pieces on rice, along with a lot of vegetables, and a cheese-like dip
Starting with the chicken, it was really good, and as I mentioned, there was a lot of it
it was also soft and not quite juicy – but definitely not overcooked/dry either. it was really satisfying to bite into
it wasn’t super well seasoned – but there was enough that it was detectable
the rice itself was pretty nice and well-flavored. it wasn’t anything too special but it served as a solid base for the rest of the toppings
the vegetables were pretty fantastic – and served as a great complement to the chicken. I was especially a big fan of the grilled onions and the peppers,
as these were cooked really well. however, the tomatoes weren’t great. charging extra for these was a little strange, but I didn’t mind it
what really brings the dish overall together and takes it to another level is the cheese dip that mixes throughout everything
if this was too cheesy – it would ruin the entire dish by making it practically inedible
if it didn’t have a strong flavor, the entire dish would basically feel plain
however, this was just perfect. It had a hint of cheese, but most surprisingly, it had a bunch of other flavors in there too that created a sauce that coated
every part of the dish and significantly increased the flavor of everything it touched
this resulted in the overall meal having a comforting, deep flavor profile that was really, really good
The margarita was also decent – it was super sugary and you couldn’t taste the alcohol that much, but it was enjoyable to drink
For the price, this was a pretty great deal. When adding the vegetables onto the ACP, it came out to around 15 dollars, and
this was a really nice portion size given that price. The jumbo margarita was also a really large drink for around 9 dollars
Overall, an excellent, well-flavored dish with a great portion size at a good price. 9/10
