Pure Taqueria...but you don't have to take my word for it!

We went to a birthday dinner recently at Pure Taqueria in Inman Park. This cute little space used to be a location of the Grape franchise. I hadn't heard great things, and I don't love Mexican food, nor do I drink Tequila. That being said it was pretty bad. We were a big group and the wait staff was kind enough to break out our tabs and the service, while not outstanding, didn't lack. The food just wasn't worth the drive, the $$ or the calories.

We started with the queso fundido with chorizo and jalepenos. It was too hot to touch at delivery, and a hard rubbery glob shortly after.The chips and salsa were plentiful, but again, nothing special.

Fish tacos, looked pretty, tasted so-so.

I had the taquitos, which you can barely see under there....they were basically what you'd find at QuikTrip....though I should have ordered something less fried I love chipotle pork. But the teaspoon in each was hard to find.....

The best part was the dessert delivery with the Mexican Wrestler Masks. And the sangria was very good. I don't recommend the menu for much more though with so many amazing mexican restaurants around town.

If you're looking for atmosphere AND authentic food try Bonegarden Cantina for fresh and delicious - and even better Sangria;)
