Decidedly Mex-Mex
Jalisco seems to be one of those places that certainly has the right idea, but suffers from poor management, or perhaps just a general carelessness on the part of its staff. Its recipes are fine : the stewed meats, sauces, salsas, rice, and beans are all first-rate. But it's clear that the kitchen skimps on the quality of their meat and fish.
"...dinner relleno was not). I would not recommend the Tequila de Mar ($13.95), a disastrous commingling of fish chunks,..."
