La Peñita San José — Restaurant in San Jose

I had been here a few times before in the food was okay so I thought I would come back with my aunt and my cousin from out of town they wanted Mexican food with homemade tortillas the service was bad they gave me a chili relleno with chili verde sauce and pork meat on top the chili relleno had the seeds inside and it was not made with the right Mexican cheese I asked to cook if they could make me a new one without that sauce as I don't eat pork and she says I'm sorry we prepared it already and we can't throw it away I thought really wow so I left without paying for bad food and bad service I'll never return there I don't recommend this place at all at least not for...

The food was good but the customer service was ehh. We sat In the corner right at the front window and were waiting to order when two more people walked in and sat on the left hand side of the restaurant. She walked directly over to them and took their order. They got their food before she even took our order. We ordered menudo and Mole and it seemed like forever before we got served. After we finished, it took a long time to get her attention to pay the bill. Even thought we had to pay cash because their ATM wasn't working we still tipped 10 bucks. Going to try again this weekend....

I dont usually leave a review. But damn. The plate was hot like it just came out from a microwave. I had tacos... the whole plate shouldn't be hot. And the tortillas were steaming to a point they stick to the plate... because it was microwaved. Too much moisture... chicken and beef tacos. Had 1 bite of each and stopped. The chicken tasted like canned tuna. Had a very similar composition as well. The "carne" was extremely rubbery. All around disappointing. I was really looking forward to "real" tacos. Dont let this places good...
