Chinita - Authentic Mexican fare!

This new mexican place had opened in Indiranagar and we were reading some rave reviews on Zomato. They had a staggering rating of 4.8 out of 5!
Had to try this place out - but the day we chose was also when the heavens decided to open up. It was raining like crazy but it actually worked in our favor.
The place is small and remains very crowded and going without a reservation is not recommended, but due to the rains some of the reservation folks did not turn up.

Their menu is nice and clean and we ordered even before getting a place to save on time.

The service is quick and the food very very authentic. I have had lots of mexican stuff when in Dallas, so I guess I know a thing or two.

Well the below is what we ordered.


Started off with a veg Quesadilla - crunchy on the outside and  cheesy on the inside. It was phenomenal.

Braised pork soft tacos. Soft corn tacos with some spices rolled into it. The pork was slow braised and then pulled. Soft and juicy and a bit spicy too. The pork is accompanied by some lettuce, sour cream, jalapenos and salsa. Wow!


Wifey took the burrito bowl - which is basically is herbed rice with beans,cheese sour cream  & salsa, with a topping of spinach and caramelised onion. Wholesome meal this one.


Pavan chose a similar bowl with some other veg stuff in it.

Rashika ordered the veg enchilada. Its is basically veggies rolled in corn tortillas and soaked in tomato salsa and baked. It was good too.



Oh BTW, did i mention the drink that Pavan ordered. It was an almonds and rice based drink with Cinammon. Well let's just say, it was pretty awful!



The meal cost us ~1500/- which I guess was a decent price for the food.
Recommended if you wish to try some real mexican food, but please call up before heading out to avoid a long wait.
