Mi Mexico Lindo Methuen

Mi Mexico Lindo in Methuen has been here for about 15 years, and I have never heard about them. They even have reasonably priced lunch specials.



This is 5 Pleasant Street, but where is the restaurant? You are better off going to the end of the street, hang a left and then quickly another left into the parking lot behind the building.



You will then end up where the entrance is located. There is a big parking lot here.



The inside is your typical Mexican restaurant. No windows but it was nice and well lit inside.



You get good chips with a so-so salsa. Rolled up silverware of course.



On Taco Tuesday they do 99¢ beef tacos, and I had to try one. The ground beef lacked texture, but it was a good amount of ground beef and plenty of fresh lettuce and cheese. In fact, the extra lettuce and cheese turned into a small salad.



The online menu said Chile Verde (9.99). From the takeout menu "Pork loin braised in a green sauce of special fresh Mexican "tomatillos" green peppers, onions and spices. Served with tortillas". The sauce had absolutely no acidity, and it was more of pork in a sauce with some poblano strips. There was some nice guacamole in the middle. The pork was tender, and the sauce was pleasant, but it was far from a Chile Verde. The rice was fluffy and the refried beans were OK. It was also a very generous portion. I'll be back to try some more dishes. The service was friendly. Afterwards, you can always stop at Nevins Farm and say hello to all the animals.
