I've been to 419 west and Carlos, both on yearly anniversaries, and it's a tough pick between the two really, but I say Carlos..

Really nice imo. Go for it!

Coach n four(sp?) on williamson a block or so from happys. Seems like a nice place (the Mrs likes it...thats all that matters) and its not too awfully expensive.

Kabukis is nice but damn...they'll put a dent in the ol wallet if you order mixed drinks. Least it was that way last time I went...good food though.

Thats about all I know about since Im not a high end eatery type guy. If I dont have to chase it down and kill it myself and the place is clean I'll break bread and call it good.

I have to disagree here Brandon. Kim and I went there the other night and it was very good. Cheapest meal is like $10 so its not someplace I would go every week or whatever like you could El Rodeo, but its a whole different level/experience.

The food was very good, probaly the closest to real Mexican food that I have had compared a few places in Mexico that I have eaten at.

I had a chicken chimichanga or whatever you call it, it was very good.

Here's the most important thing:

Yes! lol, and they give you a small side of extra salsa thats pretty damn hot..

I tried the hotter stuff first and was like, hmmm this isn't so bad, a little more pepper taste.. 3 seconds later, it hits and I was like "AHHHHHHHHHHH" lol
