Okay, so I feel like every other week is a cheating week, but this is what happens when you don't know what you're getting yourself into, all while trying to save the semester before its too late. I feel like I had midterms a week ago, Ha! But, anyways, this weeks taco destination: Tacos Kissi!
Cheating week because PLOT TWIST! they don't serve bistek tacos! So fajita it was. Whoop!
I had heard a lot of good things about this place, but never really about how it was. There's a couple in the valley, but we went to the Alamo location. It was so nice, so I'll save you the embarrassment and let you know it is probably not the best place to show up in Nike shorts, an oversized T-shirt, and Sperry's, which is totally not what I showed up in... but maybe it had something to do with the fact that it was Church Sunday, I don't know, but the place has servers in slacks and vests, so that should tell you something.
Back to the food. As soon as you sit, you're greeted with a menu and chips with a variety of salsas, refried beans and a side of cilantro and fresh onion mixed. They were all so delicious. The tacos only come in combo orders and they consist of four tacos, beans, and a drink. So, accordingly, I got a carne asada combo.
These tacos are different from the rest in that the size of the tortilla is bigger than the rest, and the tortilla is not fried. I know that these are not the typical street taco, but they were so good! They came served in two separate foils, with the beans, and a side of grilled onions. We asked for lemon, and we were good to go.
I feel like it takes from the experience that they weren't bistek but they were so good! The meat was perfectly cooked, seasoned well, and the tortillas were definitely home made.
Even though it was not what I expected, both me and my friend were pleasantly surprised and it is defnitely a place we will go back to!
Final Verdict 4/5
