Simply MEX

For my proteins I got the grilled chicken and grilled fish and I chose tacos for my mains.

Each taco comes with salsa, cheese, cilantro, onions. Added guac to complete the meal! Rather generous, could hardly hold up the taco and eat without making a mess. Particularly enjoyed the smokey marinated chicken thigh chunks. Very hearty and yummy lunch!

Grilled chicken and grilled fish tacos! Yummy! The chicken was better in my opinion

Nestled away on a mezzanine level in the House of Eden, Simply Mex is a half-year old joint dedicated to serving healthy, simple yet satisfying Mexican staples. Case in point is this grilled chicken burrito, which is priced at $10 for 10 inches (take your minds out of the gutter folks, please and thank you kindly), and since I was in a Mexican joint, I had no excuses not to slap on a glob of guac for an extra $2.

The first thing I noticed was just how fresh each and every ingredient was. From the lettuce, to the guacamole and even the tortilla blanketing the burrito, it was all fabulously fresh. I was a little miffed at how the grilled chicken was vastly outnumbered by the black beans, but at least they didn't skimp on the guacamole and the other ingredients, such as the fluffy cilantro rice.

Unfortunately, either by virtue of the fact that they're touting themselves as a healthy Mexican food eatery, or simply due to the chef being allergic to salt, the portly, well stuffed burrito was all a bit bland. More often than not, I found myself reaching for one of the bottles of sriracha sauce that Simply Mex (wisely) has on hand for their patrons to use at their discretion.

While it wasn't the most delicious or memorable Mexican meal I've had, I left the place with my hunger fully sated, and my spirits oddly lifted.
