La Chinita Poblana Restaurant Review:


Exposed brick walls, warm reds and Mexican historic decorative accents set the stage for partaking of traditional Mexican fare that does not begin and end with tacos and quesadillas. Creamy homemade jalapeño-spiced guacamole made tableside and citrus marinated lump crab meat with avocado, tomato, sweet corn, cotija cheese and mayonnaise are standouts among the starters. Specialty entrées such as shrimp in a garlic tequila broth served with rice and grilled vegetables, and a New York strip steak with chorizo and potato hash, grilled cactus, roasted corn and poblano peppers offer creative ingredient and flavor combinations that are not usually featured on standard Mexican restaurant menus. A selection of margaritas, ranging from fruity to spicy, adds to the energetic scene at the lively bar.
