A new Mexican food place recently opened up in town. This happens often but rarely are they any good. Well Poblano's is a different story. It's very good.
Out here in Tampa, there aren't a lot of Mexican restaurants that do it for me. I grew up in Texas. I've had some of the best homemade Mexican dinners ever made. In fact, the best Mexican place in town is Miguel's. Funny thing is..it's styled after Ninfa's. She was his Aunt. So the best Mexican food in Tampa is courtesy of a Texas favorite.
While I would seriously love me some yummy Joe T Garcia's right about now; I am happily satisfied with this new place.
Poblano's is a cute and well decorated place with a wrap around patio with seating. The bar is in between in and outdoor. There is a sliding window for bar service from the patio. They have four different kinds of homemade salsas. They even have salsa verde, my favorite. It's spicy, just the way it's meant to be.
The first night a gal pal and I went after a fun evening @ a charitable event. We sat @ the outside bar. I enjoyed a swirl made with homemade sangria. It was great. My friend had a top shelf margarita. It was good. (She said it didn't touch my Tiffarita..blush..hehe) The hubs came up after work and you should have seen his monster beer, @ an excellent price. We got the table side guacamole, taquitos, and a taco salad between the 3 of us. They were all fantastic!
Later that weekend we went for lunch. The iced tea was perfect. The salsa was just as good. I like that consistency. I got the skinny chicken tacos. I actually enjoy the lettuce leaf shell. It's like a salad in your hand. Hahahaha They were wonderful. Hubs got a dual burrito dish and it was refreshing to see it was a reasonable size instead of a mountain of food. I'm sure he enjoyed it because it didn't take long before it was gone.
We will be frequent customers. We can walk or ride our bikes if we like which is nice. The food is great and both dining areas, whether in or out, are pleasantly relaxing and enjoyable.
If you live in town, check it out.
