LA TORTUGUITA DORADA — Restaurant in Coatesville

Authentic, I mean straight from Mexico authentic Mexican food restaurant. Honestly, the food tastes like what you'd expect if you were welcomed into the home of a Mexican family in the outskirts of Mexico City. The food isn't spicy and is in fact, a bit bland; hence why I rated it at 3 stars. Finally, if don't speak a little Spanish you're going to need Google Translate to pay your check. By the way, this place...

Really great food! I've been searching for a Mexican place that hits my taste and this is it. We tried the carne asada special plate and the Cuban-style torta. Both were so full of flavor. The torta hit more of that junky, delicious, guilty pleasure note with stacks of hotdog and bacon, layered with toppings. The carne asada plate was almost like an open tamale! We'll be coming back to try more...

For all the new places popping up in Coatesville, this is still by far my favorite hole-in-the-wall spot! The portions are amazing, and the food is delicious. Splitting a chicken burrito and getting the large, fresh made guac is more than enough for two of us. Hopefully more people discover this place so it gets the business it needs to survive with all the new food...
