You know you found a good texmex/mexican place when they can do fish tacos!"Fish tacos, you want to do them right" (quote restaurant owner). And I definitely showed my appreciation for that. Slight, crispy, sauce was delicious! And they have waffle chicken too! Which my friend tried, though it's small for men's portions. Dinner, you can make a set with your own side and a drink. Price similar to something like Calimex, but definitely a different genre, if I can say that. If Calimex is compared t

Dinner, you can make a set with your own side and a drink. Price similar to something like Calimex, but definitely a different genre, if I can say that. If Calimex is compared to a typical equivalent of Chipotle in the U.S., I'd say Boomshack is a little more alternative, fitting in with the local neighbourhood, twisting the ingredients and sauces a little but not too much that it's a weird fusion I can't put my finger on.
Like the name of the fish taco: Kung Fu fish. It has additional mango and orange pieces to add zest to the taco. Instead of guac, actual avocado, which meant the taco didn't get all mushy and wet over time (not that it takes long to eat it, but you know how messy tacos can get sometimes).
Note dinner time is pretty quiet (we were there from 7-9ish). I'm guessing it's more popular for the after-drinks crowd.
But basically I didn't go with enough people to try all the menu items! And I had training after, so couldn't indulge in dessert. Going back though, for sure!
