Best Mexican

The family-owned Salsa a la Salsa is known for its fresh ingredients (the orange jicama salad is a simple and refreshing way to start your meal) and its creativity. It's a place where traditional dishes sit side-by-side with unique creations. Consider the fish tacos: In a nod to its Minnesota clientele, the restaurant serves native walleye topped with heaps of guacamole and pico de gallo. Then again, if you want to dine on burritos and enchiladas, you can, and you will also be assured that they will be prepared with just as much care and with the same attention to fresh ingredients as the specialty dishes. Saving room for dessert is essential, though, and you'll understand why when you read three words on the menu: fried chocolate truffles. Those chocolatey sweet treats rest on two fried cinnamon-and-sugar coated tortillas, and the whole shebang benefits from a scoop of vanilla. For liquid refreshment -- or courage -- there are tequilas galore for lovers of margaritas, while the Mexican Coca-Cola brings an authentic sugar rush.
