I stopped into Toloache with my boyfriend over the weekend after hearing some friends rave about it and boy were they right! The food was so flavorful, so intense. The guacamole can't even be described. I guess the best word is fresh. Everything there is so FRESH! Even the drinks. My boyfriend had a drink called De la Calle, which is a margarita with cucumbers, basil, and my favorite--jicama! All crushed mojito-style right into the drink. I had the Margarita Sandia (watermelon margarita). Oh my God! It was so juicy, so delicious with the real crushed-up watermelon inside. Our other favorite was the fish tacos. Tempura-battered tilapia fish with some of that awesome guacamole and jicama coleslaw right on the taco! When I bit into it, I couldn't believe what I was tasting. And I don't think I would've ordered them if it wasn't for our waiter. He was so nice, and so knowledgeable about the menu. He really helped make our choices easy. My boyfriend and I love Mexican food, and we've eaten at most Mexicans around the city. Dos Caminos, Mesa Grill, Rosa Mexicano to name a few. We were so surprised with Toloache's food we don't think we'll be back to any of the others anytime soon. Why have a dry, cheeseless chicken enchilada with green sauce at Rosa Mexicano when you can have a moist, cheesy, chicken enchilada with fresh figs inside--FIGS!!!--at Toloache? I very highly recommend this place!!!
