Restaurant: Morelos Mexican Grill

A friend and I sought refuge from the gray, rainy days that kept us from doing the Headwaters Ride this year, and found it in the margaritas and tasty food at Morelos Mexican Grill in Richfield. The restaurant is in a former Godfather's Pizza, but you can barely tell. I couldn't tell you whether the decor was authentic, but it was so bright I didn't care. Colorful blankets and other paraphenalia hung from the ceilings, and the bathrooms had rows of painted tiles and a what looked to be a hand-painted sink.

I only tried a combination tostada (w/carnitas), tamale (w/chicken), and enchilada (w/beef), but all were tasty. What impressed me most was how NOT greasy they were. I definitely want to go back and try some of the more adventurous items. The margarita was a little weak, but very flavorful.
