    Had a terrific meal at Bar Poca Madre. I greatly liked every part of my meal. The grapefruit margarita was very good and the guacamole and cerviche were outstanding. When I return I will definitely get that again. The shrimp fajitas with jalapenos was VERY flavorful and had a nice level of spice to it. At this point I was so full I had no room for dessert. Service was attentive and friendly without being overly present. Had a very enjoyable pace to the dinner. Dined on a Wednesday evening so the restaurant was maybe half full. I think it may be a bit on the loud side when full but for my meal I had no difficulty hearing and conversing with my dining companion. In sum, a great meal, great service, and I will go again to Bar Poca Madre. Highly recommend.
