La Hacienda

Watch your bill here!!!
I went in today for lunch. I had seen their ad they are running for lunch specials. I will post a picture of the ad here. This was my first time here.
The place has been totally redone since the last occupant, the Silver whatever it was. I see there is a nice rooftop area but it was January so I stayed downstairs which is also nice.
Nice huge picture of Frieda Kahlo on the south wall, you cant miss it.
I ordered the beef fajitas. It was ok. Not bad, not great. Some places serve fajitas hot and sizzling but this is not the way its served here. It seems to be premade and just heated a bit.
I would have rated it a 3 star however I dropped it a star due to pricing errors. They are running ads showing lunch specials. Thats what brought me in. The guy selling the ads was even there speaking with the owner or manager I presume she was. They also had a stack of those magazines with the ad there.
My bill came with the regular menu price even though I was there during lunch special hours. I asked the server and he went and got a gal from in back. She said I guess its not in the computer, but she did change it when I showed her their ad. Some might think errors in the bill is no big thing but it really gets me! They spend big bucks for these ads, and then not to follow through to see its in the register or that the help knows I find totally unacceptable. So watch your bill and speak up if it isnt right!!!

New, favorite Mexican restaurant in Atlanta. Here’s how our meal went down.
Food:
Guac is fantastic. They make it table side and while I was initially hesitant due to the price, it was well worth it.
Tamale Dinner: Very good tamales, not the best I’ve ever had, but then again, the best I’ve had in a long time. The sauce that comes with them is really outstanding.
Grilled Fish Tacos: These were very fresh and the husband liked them a lot.
Service:
They were all nice, there was one woman yelling real loud and talking about how the tables were being distributed. It seemed like we were one of those tables. A bit awkward but still a good experience.

Pretty good chain Mexican place. I met up here with some friends on a Tuesday evening, around 6:45 pm. We found parking spots in the lot behind the building easily, but you could park down Charles Allen if it was full.
Our waiter brought out chips and two kinds of salsa. One is chipotle and one is more standard. Both were great. I ordered the grilled steak quesadilla and a margarita on the rocks. The quesadilla was thicker than I was expecting but had little cheese holding it together. I had to eat with a fork so the meat wouldn’t fall out. The margarita was good, but nothing to write home about. The restrooms were very nice and clean. Our waiter was excellent also, the food came out within 10 minutes of ordering.

We came with a scoutmob and plan to come back soon. This place is smaller than it look but it has a great intimate setting. They have all the great spanish décor unlike most places that go overboard and end up tacky. No, they got it right here.
Mole Poblano ($ 13.75) — pulled pork cooked in a dark red sauce with rice and beans. Curry is basically the curry of Mexicans. It’s great! You can tell they make their own here, did not disappoint.
The Bowl with chicken ($ 13.25)-grilled chicken with onions, rice, beans, pico de gallo, charro beans, corn, melted cheese dip, sour cream and guacamole. Boy was it hearty. They really have a good bean recipe here and it goes great with all the food.
Overall this place is great for a date or having a drink with friends. The staff is very friendly. They even found me an Iphone charger when they saw my phone died and I was looking around for a plug.
