i'm in love... Mitchell's Fish Market

DD, we had a Pei Wei open up just minutes from our house. It's kind of like a fast food version of PFC but a little nicer than the average. Same owners. We love it and never have to travel to the mall anymore for PFC's. The lettuce wraps are exactly the same.

Wow...this sounds like a regular ol' food court!!!

yeah, times $$$$. Mitchells is probably the least expensive of the three which are currently open, and Flemings is on the high-end, but there is not another steak house like it in the area, unless you want to drive to the Hilton, park in Egypt, and go to Seagar's. Cantina Laredo is priced in the middle, but much higher than CoCo's, and worth every penny of difference to me. ;-)

Skunky, you should be aware that they do have seafood,including delicious lobster, on the menu at the Flemings (steak house).

Mitchell's wasn't bad, but for us, the opposite was true. We loved Cantina Laredo -- drinks, food, atmosphere, and service!

I thought the same thing....we loved Cantina Laredo. But to each his own! I always worry when we go out with Doug because he is such the "food critic". But, he raved about his food. We ate so much I thought we would burst! Our server was wonderful and gave us his card. His name is Luis Diaz....ask for him!!!! He was brought in with 12 others to teach....and says he loves it here. I hope they keep him here, as I plan on being a regular. (However much that could be:roll

The food was wonderful and my first margerita was pretty expensive as I ordered an expensive tequila....duhhhh.:funn: But, boy was it smooth. The Caramel Flan was also smooth and creamy, with just the right amount of sweetness. Then he brought us a Mexican Brownie and we all dove in!

I can't tell you everything we ate.....or maybe I can't remember after 2 Margarita's, but I remember those desserts!

Luis was our server at Cantina Laredo, too. I thought he was excellent.

Cantina Laredo-try the botanas platter as an entree..13$ or 14$ and more than a normal earthling should eat. 2 pastor tacos, 1/2 delicious quesadilla, small bit of cheese dip, sometimes 2 jalapeno poppers, two shish kebabs with a shrimp and sometimes a bite of beef (different every time) and a scoop of guacamole.

To each their own...there are plenty of great locally owned dining spots here that justify avoiding these bottom-line-driven spots like the plague. That is my take, stockholders be dunked in spinach and artichoke dip.

I wish there were more locally owned dining spots here....most have been gobbled up by the bottom line driven spots, so we go with the best of the evil. But, there are some that even I will avoid like the plague...and don't even get me started on fast food..

I could've written this post myself, about our area here. Nothing BUT chains.
