Comida Consensus?
That joint Comida, aka Playa 2.0 is allegedly open.
The reviews on Yelp are already rolling in, and thus far, we've got ourselves a combo platter of love/hate goin on. It's srsly kinda weird...either the place gets 5 stars or 1 star, with nothing in between.
Here's some good:
"The food and drinks we got were delicious. We tried the frozen margaritas which were great, as was the local beer selection."
"For main course I ordered the Comida Pollo (specialty of the house chicken dish). You won't find a better tasting chicken anywhere in the City, trust me--juicy and the spices were so good. My friends had the chicken enchiladas and also the Comida Pollo. Everybody loved their dishes. The sauce (mole) on those enchiladas was to die for! I'll try that next time."
"This place is no Mezcals, that's for sure. This is quality, well-prepared authentic Mexican food. We ordered the calamari, which was tasty and served with an avocado sauce and a chipotle sauce; as well as the cauliflower fritters which were delicious and served in a tomatillo sauce."
And some bad:
"While they're aiming for a finer dining experience in terms of price/ambiance, the flavor and quality of the food is definitely lacking. The three of us left feeling a little queasy from the grease with a firm decision to not return."
"After an hour and a quarter wait - during which our kept waiter promising us that our "food will be right out" - we were told that our order had been "lost." Somewhere out on The Island, Jin cried, "Hurley, hurry!"
HAAA! Yay for a Lost reference.
Personally, I'm still open to trying Comida as WTF else am I gonna do?--Obvies Mama Rosa is out. But then I read this little kicker at the end of one of the bad reviews:
"As for the ambiance, the vibe at Comida resembled that of a dimly-lit daycare. There were little children running amok like an out of control flock of sheep on the prairie, knocking over chairs and touching everything, including my legs."
Yeesh.
Any of you btchz been?? Good? Bad? Ugly?
