La Tonalteca

As most people know about me, I'm crazy about mexican food, so I was excited to try this place my family found on the way down to OCMD. I was hoping the food would be affordable and authentic, just what I always crave. I ordered the Speedy Gonzalez lunch special, which included a cheese enchilada, refried bean taco, and a side of beans. Our food was out in 15 minutes, just enough time for us to devour the chips and salsa. I can always judge a mexican restaurant by the chips and salsa. They were really yummy, but the hot sauce was a disappointment. It had this smoky flavor that wasn't quite right. The food met my expectations; it was good, but it wasn't extraordinary. The refried beans were really flavorful, and the enchilada was covered in delicious gooey cheese. La Tonalteca is a chain restaurant, and I'll gladly stop to eat there the next time I see one.
