wow 7dollars for limey quacamole. the lime is included only to keep it from turning brown.
I never trust Mexican food east of Texs or noth of Dallas. Most parts of the west Arizona, Calif. New Mexico , the yare okay.
But, since the restaurant is new? could be different.
Up here most Latin food (this is more Lamerica than it is Mexican) is usually boring. Sur 16 is great!
