Advice: The line-up moves quickly.

Steak Mulitas

Steak Mulitas

The place is always packed with people who love great Mexican food from locals to esl students missing the food from back home, After you order you will receive a long plate of complimentary tortilla chips, along with a few salsas from spicy to not so spicy. The menu is fairly large and the entrees are not so typical, my favorites here are the Chicken Mole ($18) grilled chicken breast, covered with their outstanding mole sauce served with rice and beans; along with the Steak Mulitas ($8) grilled tortillas with pieces of flank steak, cheese, onions and more. I love the Mango Juice ($4) a tall glass filled with fresh Mango juice. The place is high energy, great music, good service and all around good fun.

All my friends were suggesting that I try Maenam, so after months since their opening, I finally went for lunch and I what I discovered was some very friendly waitresses who enjoyed servicing their customers. The menu looked intriguing and there were many dishes that appealed to me, I made a decision and ordered the Mussaman Chicken ($12) bamboo, grachai, holy basil, thai basil, and rice. This dish was filling but too spicy for my taste, so when contemplating dessert and they do have a great menu for dessert, just three choices but each looked great. I settled on the Dark Chocolate pot de crème ($6) sea salt, cocoa nib tuile, tamarind semifreddo and this dessert was delish and my tastebuds were back. They have a very well thought out and extensive wine list too. The room is cool with ceiling fans, wooden tables and décor, the bar is ideal for eating when on your own or with a friend.
