regalito rosticeria

I spent a lot of my break burning through many of the daily city deals I've accumulated. You name it, I'm signed up for the daily deal. My friends told me they have started deleting them, but that is blasphemy! I carefully comb through every single one, cross reference yelp, treasure them, love them as my hypothetical first born child. Regalito Rosticeria is a Mexican restaurant in the Mission that is just one of the many absolute gems I have discovered through such deals.

Sangria and I have a complicated history. I studied in Spain in college and went to the running of the bulls in Pamplona where my girlfriend and I proceeded to buy $2 bottles of sangria and when we were running low we started filling them with vodka for good measure. I rarely want to stomach it to this day, but this was surprisingly light and fresh.

Chicken Tamales with black beans, not on the menu all the time so we got lucky.

Pollo Regalito with lime marinade and house made corn tortillas. 

This was so good and healthy! I love that they don't serve chips unless you order them as an appetizer and you can choose sauteed greens rather than rice or potatoes with this entree so I felt satisfied, but not overly full as I  normally do at Mexican restaurants.
