Fresco Tortilla

When Taco Fresco (Fresco Tortilla) opened about 5 years ago, I was first in line to check this place out after I read about it in the newspaper. A Chinese guy from New York City who loves Mexican food decided to open a Mexican restaurant. I thought that was pretty cool because sometimes, it’s good to have a fresh perspective on a cuisine.
Well, unfortunately my enthusiasm was misplaced. I’ve been there and ordered from them several times over the years and always been sorry. Everyone I know has had the same experience. My coworkers hated the food so much they actually threw out the menu and we NEVER get rid of menus. We collect them like some people collect baseball cards. But it was so bad, they didn’t ever want to risk making the same error again. The Mexican food is just HORRIBLE. Horrible. Flavorless, overpriced, greasy, messy. UNGOOD. Yes, I said ungood.
Now, they do good Chinese-​American food. I really like their Chinese. I got the best Mango chicken I’ve ever had in my life there. Unfortunately, they took it off their menu. They also have japanese udon too, but it’s not that great.
The only reason they get two stars is for the Chinese food. The Mexican food is negative one star. Well, maybe negative one half star since the sell the Mexican sidra (apple soda) that I like. But just blech in general. And the décor is abysmal. Grab your Chinese and go.
