no offense, but there is nothing “upscale” about mexican food. (i love mexican food by the way). i would not love it if it was “upscale”
im not even sure what people mean by that? what. you wanna pay 15 dollars for a taco instead of a 1.50?

Is Pyramide still open on 5th? The staff were always very nice, but the food was meh, and the decor rather mallish.
I’m excited to try this new place, though i agree with tyburg, mexican is the new thai…
there are quite a bit of mid to upscale mexican places already in the area, but i don’t think any of them are really excellent. i’ve been to barrio twice and both times i thought it was over priced and not so good. i really love the nachos with chorizo from miracle grill, but most of the other food on the dinner menu is so-so. i like taqueria for a quick, to-go meal, but not necessarily for a nice, dining in experience. i hope this one works out as good food and nice ambiance!
though i would like to say RIP to Little D’s Eatery. I loved their hen of the woods salad! that was delicious.
Bupe:
Tacos Nuevo Mexico just moved into a new space right next door to their old space. The new restaurant has nice wood carved doors and facade. It’s no longer a dump.
Just bein snooty – RM is fine, I’m just vehemently against the whole ‘upscale mexican’ movement.
I’m sure this place will be good. It seems like a great mexican restaurant has been opening every month
Barrio? Ugh, can’t stand that place either. Been there from brunch a couple of times and that was enough.
