Even though Pat and I live on the northwest side of town, we have visited Jennifers and Calypso from time to time. With the new ownership and being renamed Alexis, we have stopped by several times for dinner. A familiar looking menu did have some new items. Having had a search for tasty Tex-Mex style food, I zeroed in on the Taco dinner. Pat ordered the chimichanga with chicken. I was pleasantly surprised to find the beef tacos filled with ground chorizo. Delicious! Pat enjoyed her chicken chimichanga so much that she ordered them again on the next visit. I tried the enchiladas and enjoyed them.
Pat wasn't so pleased though. Upon mentioning that the chicken did not taste as good as the first time, it was explained that they had ran out of the seasoned chicken and made a substitute. My advice is to just say you are out of a product rather than risk disappointing the customer.
On another visit, to Pat's horror, I ordered the fillet mignon. Pat knows I'm fussy about my steak. I ordered mine medium. I got it well done. It came covered with onion rings and canned mushrooms. Had the the mushrooms been sauteed for a few seconds, it would have been more appetizing. I did enjoy the baked potato though!
The owner was gone that evening. On previous visits he made the rounds to make sure everyone was satisfied. There was a noted lack of supervision this evening with his absence.
We will return, if only to enjoy the Tex-Mex food and other items that we haven't explored yet. A new business will suffer some growing pains. We allow for that and recommend a visit.
