What Ricardo Strauß likes about Pokez Mexican Restaurant:
Vegan vegetarian options abound at this longstanding gem of a restaurant. PLUS they carry sell this outstanding, rare, traditional hot sauce from Guadalajara MX called Abuelita Guille. A rare find! View all feedback. What djaindl doesn't like about Pokez Mexican Restaurant:
The food is great, especially for vegetarians and I have been coming here for 6+ years. Look past the brash initial impression, this place is great even though it takes forever. Not fast food, good food. On the other hand, if you forget your wallet at the table, within less than 20 hours their company policy is to drop it in the downtown mailbox. No envelope, just dopped. So yes I am the idiot that forgot my wallet,... View all feedback.
