Quickie Review #1: Angelinas Mexican Restaurant

Angelina's Tex-Mex Restaurant delivers superb Mexican cuisine in a lovely spot overlooking Lake Lewisville in The Colony, TX. The New Mission style decor manages to project an image that is both elegant and downright funky. Seating is plentiful, with outdoor and indoor patios with beautiful lake views available. The Rock Star and I enjoyed their authentic (trust me on this!) cuisine on a rainy Sunday afternoon recently. The Rock Star selected a cheese enchilada platter, with a crispy beef taco substituted for one of the enchiladas, and later confessed that it was the best cheese enchilada she had ever put in her lovely mouth! I enjoyed the Platillo Manzanilla, resplendant with a delicious ground beef burrito with queso, a beef enchilada with ranchera sauce, and a crispy beef taco subbed in for the cheese enchilada. All were quite yummy and very fresh, as were the complimentary chips and medium-heat red salsa brought to our table.

Service-wise, Angelina's does the little things that make the difference between good and great customer service. Our waiter Derek refilled our very large tea glasses without asking, and brought extra salsa in a large container to enjoy with my rice and beans. Angelina's can be reached at www.angelinastexmex.com, and are open seven days a week, unlike many restaurants in The Colony. Visit soon for some of the finest Tex-Mex in all North Texas, and remember:

LIFE IS TOO SHORT FOR MEDIOCRE FOOD!!!
