    Xalisko Cocina Mexicana is definitely worth a stop if you are in the area! The food was great and the service consistent. We tried the Salsa y Tostadas appetizer which was great and Tacos al Pastor and Carne en su Jugo for entrees which were both delicious. It took a little while to get seated even though we came with a reservation but overall not bad. The noise level is a little higher than you would want to easily carry on a conversation. This could be easily improved by adding a little fabric to the walls helping absorb excess sound.
