El Hogar Mexican Restaurant

Great authentic Mexican food. Steak tacos are great. Tacos al pastor is great. Chirizo burrito is great (a bit greasy, but chorizo is always greasy). Nachos, jalapeno poppers, and basically everything is great. I've only ever seen the same 2 people working, and they're always super friendly.

I saw this place driving by and thought I'd try it since I'm working in the area for a bit. The staff is friendly and the dining area is clean. The food flavor is meh, and the salsa "bar" is weak.
They were watered down and the green tomatillo salsa was a weird shade of food coloring green.
The salsa cups are thimble size. The Horchata was nice, but I'm disappointed when I sit down at a Mexican place and they don't have chips and salsa for you.
It's just not welcoming.
Then to try the salsas they do have and there's not much flavor and they're watered down? The steak burrito didn't come with beans and it's just not very good, not to mention that it's priced higher than typical for a lightweight burrito. I tried it once.
Due to the lack of flavor, and the higher prices I won't be back a second time. I think it's worth mentioning, I was there for lunch and there wasn't another person in the dining area, and only one car came through the drive through in the 30 minutes I was there to sit and eat. A personal complaint: The TV was on CNN and I had to listen to politics when I just wanted to enjoy my break and my meal.
I really don't care to be flustered by the state of our overlords when I'm just looking for 30 minutes of calm while I'm off the jobsite.
I would have rather had no TV or most anything other than 24 hour coverage of the presidential race.
But maybe that's just me.

It's tough to produce bad Mexican food and this place has done it.
The restaurant drive thru is on the wrong side of the building, so I decided to dine in.
The restaurant was clean and bathroom smelled cleaned.
The staff was friendly and helpful.
However, the food was just disappointing.
Priced way too high for the amount of food received.
The food tasted old and as if it was just reheated in a microwave.
The salsa bar was ok at best.
Just not gonna return here.
