Placita Riverside

Whoa… so it’s Easter and they didn’t want to be there, I get that. This was the first time in my life that I have had a pile of enchiladas. The waitress thought it was a Chile relleno because the pile was shaped like one! No care, no flavor, no life at this place. It needs bar rescue or Gordon Ramsey to save it.

We drive by this place all the time living in North Riverside. We frequent the restaurants in the area and have always wanted to try this place out. Wife and I are happy we did, we set down right away (Wednesday evening). I wasn't expecting this place to have the character it does; quaint, cozy and a full bar. We ordered Brussels sprouts, perfectly seasoned and roasted (I'm on a diet 😅), decided to try my "go to", everywhere I go to start, green chicken enchiladas, they weren't as spicy as my wife's but they are tasty, beans and rice are prepared authentically. Service was just as good. I'm excited to go back for brunch this Sunday Yeah, I'll stay that they next week!

Its a mix of traditional and modern mexican dishes. They have modified their menu due to the pandemic yet they offer great drinks with mexican tequila, mezcal and wines. Love their decor. Start with their wing( they are not wings) and carnitas appetizer ( BBQ ribs with a mexican chile guajillo sauce). Love it. I brought a friend later and we had desserts. I was told they have brunch on Sundays.

I have been wanting to eat here for a while. The food was inexpensive, and the portions were worth the cost. The drinks. The drinks were the best they have some very fun choices and it looks like a full bar. We went for brunch on a Sunday and it was low-key the ambiance was nice and the service was great
