I know I took a while to visit this one Suga fam, but from Suga Taster reports, I wasn’t quite pulled in yet.
I visited on a GNO mid August. We had the Tacbar Platter (any 8 tacos for J$3950). We chose the Ahi Tuna, Oxtail, Shrimp and Lobster Tacos.
The Ahi Tuna Taco needed a tasty, spicy balsamic vinaigrette.
I’m not sure why crushed chips were in the Oxtail Taco, but it was an unwelcomed crunch for me, not a hit. Like most folks, I prefer my Oxtail tender and boneless without that texture.
The Shrimp Taco was bland without the lime they provided with it. So definitely added that splash of lime.
The Lobster Taco was the best selection for us, but why put crumbled feta in it to overpower the Lobster? The taste of Lobster can be easily overpowered and feta is known for it’s sharp, pungent taste.
Anyhow, I love Chef Haleem Card’s food, but I was a bit disappointed. Perhaps they may have been a bit overwhelmed in the kitchen by the fact that it was Heineken’s Bar hopping series night. But kudos to them for still keeping a high quality of service by the restaurant. Those ladies were awesome and the music and vibes were fantastic.
It’s still Chilitos for me for authentic Mexican, but I will revisit.
Have a great weekend!
