Tupinamba

Monday Emily, Wyatt and I decided to try out Tumpinamba. This neighborhood Mexican food spot is located off of the tollway and Forrest. The inside is spacious, and the service was friendly and warm.

We arrived early since Wyatt was with us, but that just meant that we were still in time for the happy hour special. We each ordered a margarita for 3.95! Emily had the peach swirl and I had the sangria swirl- what a deal! I decided to try the Tupy Tacos. Apparently, this is one of the signature items on the menu. I'm not sure exactly what is in the tacos, but I can say they were pretty delicious. The outside taco is fried and you are served a lettuce, tomato, and cheese salad on the side. You can stuff your taco, or eat the salad separately. Either way you go, you definitely won't be disappointed.

Emily ordered a combo of cheese enchiladas, a Tupy taco, and a guacamole tostada. The guacamole had fresh tomato and real pieces of avocado with just the right amount of garlic. The cheese enchiladas were overly covered in sauce and sans onion, but these shortcomings were overshadowed by the other items.


Even Wyatt had a good time visiting with the waiter and the other patrons! We'll be back!
