Desperados Fresh Mexican Grille is true to its name. Chef-owner Dave Atwell takes pride in the fact that he cooks everything fresh to order. Homemade salsa, sauces, guacamole, black beans as well as making his own chips. Signature "Smokin’ Fajitas" is a menu favorite - marinated steak or chicken served with grilled poblano pepper, red pepper, onion and potato with a side plate of rice, beans, lettuce, tomato, cheese and warm flour tortillas.
Atwell said he bought the restaurant from a good friend, Randy Ross, in 1998. "He trained me, showing me all the ins and outs of creating fresh Mexican cuisine,” says Atwell.
Over the past several years, he has expanded the menu and incorporated of lot of his own ideas, like Drunken’ Shrimp (grilled plump shrimp soaked in top-shelf margarita, served over rice and topped with grilled veggies, cheese and fresh cilantro.) "We have all the popular classics - tacos, burritos, quesadilla, chimichangas, and wraps,” says Atwell.
And he's got more: Dining out on your birthday? You can enjoy any entree up to $13.95 on us as Desperados way of wishing you all the best on your birthday.
