In Huntsville for work and had dinner at El Coyote, loved how even a single diner they brought me a mini carafe of salsa. The salsa was unremarkable (and under-salted) so I'm not doing a review, but they deserve mention for the generous serving size, I didn't even need to ask for a refill. Wish more places did this.

Also I loved the Fajitas Jalisco which was a TRIO of meats, beef+chicken+shrimp 🔥

    Quality over quantity tbh. Like I’m sure at most places where they do complimentary chips & salsa, they’re more than happy to refill as much as you want. Just need to find somewhere with decent salsa.

    Like it definitely looks super canned tomato-y to me.

    Did they throw out any unused salsa or refill the carafe and give it to someone else. I’ve seen the latter happen.

    I love this, too, because this could literally be a picture from the spot I grew up on in North Carolina

    The Mexican places in my area all give you a spicy bean dip instead of salsa, and then have a salsa bar you can use as needed. I’m never going back

    Tell me you poured it into a small glass and sipped it, followed up by saying something eloquent lol

  6. I thought all Mexican joints give ya that little thingy of salsa. Least the ones round here do.

    I love that as well. Wish my favorite Mexi place did this, because I *love* their salsa with both chips and food.

    Instead, I’m constantly having to harass the staff for “moar salsa!! moar salsa!!!” I know they’re sick of me by now. 😛

  8. Ask if they have salsa picosa. It will change your life. It changed mine 🥲🤤

    Wow I wasn’t prepared to see Huntsville on here. Try El Cazador next time you are here.

    Shout out to the poor dishy in the kitchen who has to figure out how to scrape dried tomato out of the bottom of that thing.

    I didn’t enjoy that job as a kid.

  11. hot tomato sauce, fresh onion, jalapeno and cilantro are relatively inexpensive.

    Woah…that’s amazing. I’ll always plow at least three bowls of salsa when I eat out and it’s very frustrating waiting to get a refill.

  13. I see this in most places when I travel to the Midwest.

    Most of the Mexican restaurants in my area do that too!

    I like this but I’d fear that the pizzaz of the fancy mini-carafe is a misdirect for how little salsa I’m actually getting getting compared to how much I’d get if there was a larger dish 🤔
