Cielito's restaurant provided an excellent setting for an evening with both friends and family. We began the evening with a sampling of different drinks (strongly, strongly recommend the watermelon margarita with mezcal instead of tequila) accompanied by guacamole & chips and tacos dorados (ordered both chicken options with green and red sauces). The guacamole delivered with a well-balanced mixture of ingredients (and just the right level of lime). The only constructive criticism would be that of the corn chips (they lacked the requisite crunch of those found in Southern Californian establishments). After the antojitos/appetizers, we progressed to the grilled beef tacos, prawn tacos, enchiladas verdes o rojas (chicken) and fajitas. Cielito's Chef, Alvin, delivered once again on all four fronts. Everyone expressed satisfaction with their entrees and the solid results set the stage for the final course of postres/desserts. Unfortunately, Cielito's signature 3 leches offering was unavailable, so we opted for the churros (with creamy caramel sauce), flan, and Mexican coffee. The churros were cooked perfectly with a balanced covering of both sugar and cinnamon. Everyone enjoyed the flan, but some wished it were bigger in size. The Mexican coffee was outstanding with a perfect balance of espresso, veritas rum, and cazcabel coffee tequila. All in all, I would most definitely return to this establishment if ever back in Virginia Water. My thanks once again to Chef, Alvin, and his wonderful staff for providing a truly memorable dining experience.
