any Mexican food in the WDW other than San Angel?

[ngvenice]

Im trying to do my ADR's and would love some Mexican but the menu @ San Angel does not appeal to me. Is there anywhere else I can go?

We have discovered a great Mexican restaurant just off of
WDW property. It's in a shopping center on 535 North of
I-4. I can't remember the name right this second, but there
is a Steak N Shake in the same shopping strip.

It's one of my favorite places to eat on our Disney trips!

Sort of a mixture of mexican and colombian food, but Paradiso 37 is at DTD.

We shared a bunch of appetizers and the margaritas were to die for. Their beer is also super, super cold.

El Patron

House margaritas are like soda water but the food is good. You can also buy coupons on restaurant.com for El Patron.

La Hacienda in Epcot will be opening mid September but I don't know if that fits with your travel plans, ngvenice.

We went to El Patron in July, we were not impressed. Slow service and so so food.

It does, we'll be there in Nov., thanx for the link. It sounds promising--- more traditional Mexican food than what San Angel offers, in my opinion!

If you are staying onsite, do not have a car, and are on the Disney Dining Plan, these are your other options:

Cantina de San Angel
Hacienda de San Angel (these will open September 2010 but are owned and operated by the same company as San Angel Inn)

Maya Grill, Coronado Springs and Pepper Market, Coronado Springs (these have only a few limited Mexican-style entrees. Stick with the counter service if you want typical Tex-Mex fare like burritos - not traditional Mexican like San Angel serves)

Refreshment Port near Canada at Epcot (this actually has more South American style entrees)

El Pirata y El Perico at MK (if it's open - lately it has been open for lunch)

ESPN Club has nachos and Big River Grill has a chicken quesadilla appetizer. Both are at the Boardwalk.

Paradiso 37 at DTD is not on the dining plan.

That's about it. Not much to choose from.
