This place was said to be \"busy\", so I made sure to arrive before opening time at 11 AM, expecting a long line outside such as I would have found at Matt's or Five Guys. Instead, there was no one else, & that was still the case at 11:05, when the door was still locked, the dining room dark, & the \"Open\" sign in the window off.\n\nFiguring they had gone out of business, I started my car to drive away, but just then the \"Open\" sign lighted (although the dining room remained unlighted during my visit). I found a table with enough light to read the magazine I had brought along, but then loud music started playing, so I couldn't hear myself think anyway, & it played during my entire visit.\n\nThere were a variety of tacos offered, & a combo including two tacos plus rice & beans was priced ok at $6.99. \"Vanessa\" brought me a basket of chips & took my order for a Combo with a dogfish shark taco & a Carne Asada one. There were an array of salsas available on an iced table, & I tried several of them with the chips while I waited for the main items. The chips were blah, but the salsas were good, especially the green Cilantro one.\n\nThe rest of the food was ok too, but it would have been more enjoyable if it hadn't been for the blaring music. Forty minutes after I had arrived, I went up to the counter to pay, & one other customer finally entered the restaurant. So much for it being a busy place.\n\nWham! Instead of $6.99, I am being charged $8.79! What's this? Vanessa points out to me that in tiny print at the bottom of the menu it says that if your two tacos aren't the same as each other, then it's $8.79. That's too much for what it was.\n\nBack home, I looked at La Condesa's menu on their Website. There, they do tell you up at the top that they will charge you extra for two different tacos, but the new higher price shown there is $7.59, not $8.79.\n\nToo many problems here, & I'll never return, but since the food itself was pretty good, I'll bring it up to 2-Stars. :-(
