点评:This Father's Day, my brother-in-law and I decided to try a well-reviewed Mexican restaurant, ultimately choosing Gringo’s in Pearland, Texas. The restaurant was extremely crowded upon arrival, which initially seemed like a promising sign. I’ve visited many Mexican restaurants before but based on the appealing photos and some positive reviews I found online, I decided to give this one a try.
Since my brother-in-law wasn’t hungry and he was vegan for a limited time, I ordered the beef and chicken fajitas for one, along with a margarita. The margarita was excellent; however, the food was a major letdown. When the dish arrived, I was shocked to find only three tiny pieces of beef and three pieces of dry chicken, all heavily buried under a pile of onions and served in a sizzling skillet. I asked the bartender if that was truly the full portion, and he confirmed it was.
The food was overly salty, and with an empty stomach, I ended up eating the extremely salty chips and salsa, drinking two margaritas, and paying over $125 for the experience. As someone who works in the hospitality industry, I can honestly say I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone.
For those seeking authentic Mexican cuisine with better value, service, and flavor, I highly encourage researching The Original Ninfa’s on Navigation as a point of comparison. In hindsight, it still feels surreal that I spent $125 at Gringo’s for such a disappointing meal.
翻译:今年父亲节,我和姐夫决定去一家口碑不错的墨西哥餐厅试试,最终选择了位于德克萨斯州皮尔兰的Gringo’s。我们到的时候,餐厅里挤满了人,这乍一看似乎是个不错的信号。我之前去过很多墨西哥餐厅,但看到它的照片很吸引人,网上也有一些好评,我决定试试这家。
因为我姐夫不饿,而且他限时吃素,所以我点了一份牛肉鸡肉法士达,一份一人份,外加一杯玛格丽特。玛格丽特很棒,但菜品却令人大失所望。菜上来的时候,我惊讶地发现只有三小块牛肉和三块干巴巴的鸡肉,厚厚地埋在一堆洋葱下面,盛在滋滋作响的煎锅里。我问酒保,这真的是一份完整的吗?他确认了。
菜太咸了,我空着肚子,最后吃了超咸的薯条和莎莎酱,喝了两杯玛格丽特,花了125多美元。作为一名酒店业从业者,我可以坦白地说,我不会推荐这家餐厅给任何人。
对于那些追求正宗墨西哥菜、性价比更高、服务更好、口味更佳的食客,我强烈建议在导航上搜索一下The Original Ninfa’s餐厅,作为比较对象。事后想想,在Gringo’s花了125美元却吃到如此令人失望的一餐,仍然感觉很不真实。
