Mexican food, is oh so good! This past weekend was fun filled with lots of “Texas” events but our first stop was dinner on Friday night at La Familia in Fort Worth. I had never been here before and knew absolutely nothing about the restaurant but quickly fell in love.
Reason #1: Get a margarita.
Why?
Because they light them on fire! Well, not literally. Whether you get one on the rocks or frozen, they will bring it out, place a sugar cube on your lime and poof! Up in flames! I’m not exactly sure “why” but it makes the presentation pretty awesome and who doesn’t like fire?! The margarita is perfectly made by the way!
Reason #2: Chips and Salsa
I’m going to admit, I’m a bit nervous at trying the salsa at some Mexican restaurants. More or less, I’m scared it’s going to be too spicy but I’ve found the diamond out of them all! This salsa was some of the freshest salsa I’ve ever had at a restaurant. The chips were crispy, fresh and non-oily. This just proves that La Familia stays true to their word that all items are made fresh daily. Who doesn’t like that?!
Reason #3: Atmosphere
Exposed brick (oh I love the exposed brick). Southwest decor. Black and white vintage photos. Need I say more?!
Reason #4: Food
I know I’ve already discussed the chips and salsa but the main course was delicious.
(Above) Veggie Quesadilla’s
(Below) Sour Cream Chicken Enchiladas (my order).
My meal was delicious and I couldn’t finish it. Plenty of food for a good price. My friend had the above order and it was agreed, you can’t go wrong!
If you are in the west, Fort Worth area and are looking for some good Mexican food. I would suggest swinging on over. I’m going to warn you, parking is a little tough but as soon as you find a spot, hopefully you will agree that it was worth it! Don’t forget to try a margarita!
