I stopped into a local market at 8633 Camp Bowie West on Fort Worth's west side. It's a small market located in a strip center behind the Sonic. Inside is a small grill with counter seating and a few tables. The menu was in Spanish but is pretty clear.
I ordered a platillo de tacos Bistek. You order at the counter, wait for your food, then take it to the front register of the store to pay. The eating area was kind of dirty and not appealing at all.
When I got home and opened my to go box, I was pleased by what I saw.
This is a very traditional Mexican style meal. The beans were fantastic. They were a little on the runny side but definitely homemade and delicious. The rice was pretty plain as per traditional Mexican rice. It tends to run bland but was ok.
The double tortillas on my tacos where so soft and supple. There was no greasiness at all to the tortillas and they still held together nicely. They were topped with the traditional onion, cilantro, and a half lime. The beef, in my opinion was a little tough and on the dry side.
Overall it was a good meal that I would eat again, however, it is not one of my favorite "go to" places.
