We have been to Chapparrita’s on North Hanover Street twice, once for lunch, and once for dinner. It seems to be family-run, and the service is friendly. They are a bit different from the other local Mexican restaurants–the concentration here is on properly prepared Mexican-style food, not just hot peppers and melted cheese. They use real queso fresco, not shredded jack or cheddar cheese, for instance. Ask for their medium hot sauce to spice things up a bit, if you like. We and others we have talked to have all said that it reminds them of what they had in Mexico. The fried tacos are excellent, and not at all oily. The enchiladas were served with a tasty, tangy green sauce, but are also available with a red sauce. The cheese and pepper tamales were tastier than the chicken. The dishes are reasonable, and it was nice to be able to bring out own beer. We’re looking forward to trying more of the items on their menu.
