Here's a fact about me: I love tacos. I will go to any HK place that has tacos at least once to try them. This is a place that has tacos, and thus I went to try them.First of all, the menus were confusing. The regular menu has "tacos" (plural) on it, and describes the tacos. It doesn't say "if you order this we will also give you x, y, and z with it." The set lunch menu says "choice of taco" (in the singular) and says it comes with fries (plus the normal set stuff: salad, drink, dessert). Since
First of all, the menus were confusing. The regular menu has "tacos" (plural) on it, and describes the tacos. It doesn't say "if you order this we will also give you x, y, and z with it." The set lunch menu says "choice of taco" (in the singular) and says it comes with fries (plus the normal set stuff: salad, drink, dessert). Since we wanted more than one taco and fries are a bizarre acompaniment to tacos, we tried to order off the regular menu. After a bunch of confused discussion with the server, we discovered that the tacos on the regular menu, although they don't seem to come with fries, do come with fries; and that the "taco" on the set menu, although it doesn't seem to be in the plural, is in the plural; and thus the menu items, differently described though they may be, are nevertheless identical.
OK, so we got the set taco(s).
The meal begins with a Caesar salad. I believe that I've never had a Caesar salad come before I was about to eat taco(s). It's pretty paired down: romaine, parmesan, croutons. The croutons were a little weak, but it was mostly fine. It was mediocre given the mad Caesar salad set lunch game some places run in this town. C
Alright, french fries with taco(s)? I mean, they obviously have corn tortillas and a deep fryer, and what's more they have tortillas chips and salsa on the menu! Bizarre as that was, the red stuff wasn't ketchup. Cocktail sauce or marinara sauce or something, but not ketchup. And the tacos were meh. Steak tacos are not just pieces of steak in a taco. Or at least they shouldn't be. Not particularly good. C-
The carnitas tacos were better, but not by a lot. Here's how you make good carnitas: you slow-cook the pork until it's falling-apart tender, then you fry it in fat to get it crispy. It's amazing and it's pretty easy to do at home. These carnitas were oddly dry and chewy. I don't even know how you do that. CMy ultimate judgment is roughly: "That's not a thing." You don't eat fries with taco(s). You don't dip fries in marinara sauce. You don't just put a piece of steak on a tortilla and call it a steak taco. That's not a thing. Nobody does that. For a reason, nobody does that.
It wasn't bad. But it was only OK.
