Restaurant Spotlight – Paco’s Mexican

May 29, 2019 | Restaurants

One of the most talked-about subjects in our Facebook group is restaurants. MIC’s Economic Development Committee decided to visit Mableton restaurants periodically, and provide some basic information about them — or in other words, “shine a spotlight” on the restaurants in our community. MIC does not endorse the restaurants; the Spotlight exists simply to introduce Mabletonians to restaurants in Mableton.

Food Safety Score:  96, Grade “A”, 1.14.19

Ambience:  Very comfortable, clean environment, music not too loud, and pleasant lighting.  Lots of booths (with comfortable padded seats) for better sound absorption and cozy “feel”.

Wifi: yes

Parking:  Paved, plentiful

Experience:  Early dinner hour on a Friday night, already really busy.  Seated promptly, not rushed for our orders, yet very quick delivery of meals, piping hot.

What we chose:  complimentary chips & salsa (chips were very tasty, even without the salsa):
* Combination plate #7 – 3 small portions of 1 enchilada (choice of cheese/chicken/beef) , 1 beef burrito, 1 chiles relleno (appeared to be green bell pepper vs. authentic poblano)
* Chicken & Shrimp – basically “deconstructed” Fajita with butterflied chicken breast (tender & moist) topped with pineapple slice, cheese dip, all atop standard Fajita mix of sautéed peppers/onions/tomatoes, and side of rice/beans and upon request, tortilla on the side
* Chiles Poblano – (with chicken, but Fajita and beef are other options) – two Poblano peppers stuffed/topped with (delicious) “melty” cheese and salsa, topped with rice and guacamole salad (lettuce/dollop of guacamole/tomatoes)

Menu Notes: 15 different sides, Lots of vegetarian options, Kids’ menu, Specials, Lunch Buffet 7 days/week – $8.99 adults, $4.50 kids
