La Mesa Modern Mexican

Saturday dinner was a real leisurely treat! Pubela is a super hip restaurant with a wonderful ambiance. IF you’re looking for great Mexican food in St.Charles downtown that separates themselves from the pack, you won’t be disappointed with Puebla. The menu is amazing has both shareable individual plates. The restaurant is good for family or a date night. The drink selection is good custom. We had the Elote guacamole (skip this Elote). But do get roasted jalapeño salsa and Habanero salsa both were amazing. For the main course, we had El Hefe Chicken Tinga. Must get Coles de Bruselas, roasted brussel sprouts with chorizo bacon cilantro. The facility isspacious and clean, as were the restroom....

It was very busy so that maybe the reason for the very poor service. After our food was delivered we didn't see the waiter until it was time for the check. Service was very slow (but they have to do better) and it was obvious our waiter was quite overwhelmed. Food was ok but nothing special. The peppers with the fajita dish were soggy and the shrimp was overly chewy. The Mexican salad was good and had really good flavor.

Was there a manager on duty? The service was terrible, but we can't blame the waiter, as they seemed to be overwhelmed. We never received a refill on our water, our order took an eternity, and our appetizer arrived just moments before our main course. Plus, there were no napkins provided. The restaurant wasn't even busy.
