I was actually there last night, too! I finally got to try the seitan wings and you’re right, they were increadible. I think that they must have to deep fat fry them first to get that texture, but I don’t even care. The onion rings are on my list for next visit! I also thought the service was maybe a little off – we ordered our pitcher of margaritas spicy and there was nary a fleck of cayenne. Ah well.

We got the onion rings, which were awesome, and the seitan “wings” as an appetizer. They were seriously delicious–SERIOUSLY. The texture was great. We then shared the chile rellenos and did not think it was all that good. It was kind of a mess of textures and muddy flavors. We also had to wait a really long time for dessert–there seems to have been a kitchen problem, so we also didn’t get the bunuelos (sp?) that we ordered. Instead, we got banana pudding which was…fine, but missing the chocolate the menu described. Phew! There’s my review. Oh, and the service was very nice.
