Tere's Mexican Grill (melrose ave)

Food 07: Mid-Wilshire

I always on look out for really good and authentic Mexican restaurant, especially one that's near to where I live and work. This place is the ultimate answer. It's a small family-owned neighbourhood favorite that gets very crowded during lunch. Agua de horchata rice water drink, it's my first time trying this Mexican drink, yummy and refreshing.

sope de pollo, thick tortilla-based appetizer w/chicken. I got the 2 beef tacos with rice and bean, delicious!

2 fish tacos. The tortilla chips are homemade and fresh, you can taste the differences. There're six type of salsa at the salsa bar, I like the pickled carrots a lot. The guacamole side order is great too. I want to go back and try other stuffs on the menu (heard their burrito is very good).
