Restaurant Review Friday! Jardin Corona

5th March, 2010 - Posted by katherine - 1 Comment

For Restaurant Review Friday, our goal is to not only present some restaurant ideas for the weekend that highlight local or organic food, but also some vegetarian menu suggestions at more mainstream restaurants.

In February I had dinner at Jardin Corona with some friends.  I can’t find a website for the restaurant, but its rated 4 stars on yelp and google, and I thought it was delicious and very reasonably priced.  I had the veggie fajitas and they were great.  I’ve found that the veggie fajitas at most Mexican food restaurants are pretty standard – zucchini and/or squash, onions, and maybe green peppers that have been sautéed.  The fajitas at Jardin Corona were unexpected and scrumptious with all the usual veggies, plus sautéed carrots and button mushrooms.  And the veggies had a spicy flavor that went really well with fresh sour cream and guacamole.  For $8.99 it was a great value, and there was enough leftovers for 2 more meals.

Jardín Corona is amazing and it is also pretty authentic; it is definitely not your average Austin Tex-Mex, it is a lot closer to what you would find in Mexico.

I had a vegetarian meal as well, the bean and cheese burrito, and it was enough food for two meals. The margaritas are really good too!
