Walking into Mezcalito’s I was surprised by it’s small size. There are about 10 tables inside, a small patio and then 2 more tables outside sitting basically on the sidewalk. The amount of flavor and deliciousness that comes out of that kitchen amazed me! The rice is green-it’s mixed with a purée of spinach, cilantro and poblano peppers and the house beans are black beans that have almost a smokey flavor to them….they’re incredible.  Mezcalito’s has a variety of veggie friendly items like quesadillas (Super Quesadilla that comes with a side of green rice and a side salad (complete with raw pumpkin seeds!) and a non super one that is served with green rice and black beans), enchiladas, chile relleno, chilaquiles and even a veggie cuban sandwich!!

You don’t get free chips and salsa here, it’s more of a gourmet South American restaurant than your average run of the mill Mexican place. The chips and 2 home made salsas (red and green) are $4 and an order of chips and gauc is $6. The gauc is OuTStAnDinG!!!

We ordered a half pitcher of the silver margaritas ($21) and they’re were very good-not sweet and served with a lemon.

I ordered the veggie enchiladas (pictured) and Loren got the veggie super quesadilla. We split both meals right down the middle so I feel like what I am about to say next is researched.

Veggie Enchiladas > Veggie Super Quesadilla

The Super Quesadilla plate is amazing in it’s own right–the side salad is boss…its worth a purchase but it doesn’t compare to the enchiladas.  The veggies used in the two plates are zucchini, corn, carrot, spinach, onion, green pepper and tomatoes.  I can’t wait to go again!
