Marmet Edition: El Capataz

By Candace Nelson - 7:33 PM

El Capataz

El Capataz is located in Marmet and translates to "boss" or "foreman."

El Capataz

The Mexican Restaurant is fairly new, and seems to offer familiar dishes: burritos, quesadillas, enchiladas, fajitas and list of specialty dinners.

El Capataz

The building has seen some wear and tear in its day and has scant decor. But I was only inside for several minutes before collecting my meal that I called in and heading home. 

El Capataz

First, let's start with some chips and salsa. Decent. Add in an order of queso? Amazing.

El Capataz

I ordered camarones al mojo de ajo, which is shrimp and mushrooms sauteed in wine, butter, lemon, spices and garlic sauce cooked to perfection and served with rice. If there was a buttery wine sauce, it got soaked up somewhere along the way. Nothing a dash of queso can't fix. It definitely made for a heartier dish, but tasty nonetheless.

El Capataz

I also ordered especial la casa - two burritos filled with beef or chicken topped with cheese sauce with rice. We opted for chicken and split these. I would not have hated a bit more filling within the burritos, but, again, covered in cheese - what's not to like?

El Capataz

We finished with cheesecake chimi that is just the definition of sinful: fried, sweet, covered in sprinkles and whipped cream.

El Capataz

It is just downright, straightforward indulgent and tasty. Much like most of the meal, you could feed me a piece of cheese, and I'll be happy. Does it make for a unique experience? No - but does it really need to? It was enjoyable and that was enough for me on this day.
