Sagebrush Cantina. It's pretty tasty food.

Today I went to the Sagebrush Cantina in Fenton with my mom (Yeah. I went and had dinner with my mommy. My mommy loves me and says I am special which is why I have to wear this protective gear to protect my specialness). It's your fairly standard Tex/Mex restaurant. Tacos, nachos, enchiladas, the regular stuff you expect to get at most of these types of establishments. No real surprises on the menu.

As with all GOOD Tex/Mex restaurants they start you off with chips and salsa. The salsa here is top notch. This is probably some of the best salsa I've had. It's got nice flavor. A nice amount of heat to make your nose run a bit. You know anything that's supposed to be spicy isn't good unless it gives you a little bit of sniffles. The chips are a bit on the fragile side though. Tasty but tend to crumble 5/8ths of the time. Still they're a good platform for that sweet, sweet salsa.

The entrees are pretty tasty too. I got the tacos of various meats. Steak, shrimp, and chicken. The chicken taco was tasty. The shrimp taco was tasty. Aaaaaaand the steak taco was tasty, if a bit tough at bites. I'm thinking that they need to tenderize it a bit better. The pico de gallo they make adds a nice crisp taste to it. The sides do need some work though. The beans were a bit gritty, but tasty. The rice was a bit bland though.

Other than those small things this place is pretty good. Definitely a place for you to get food if you're out in Fenton, or as I call it The Desolate Wastes. The food is good, the service is good, and damnit you need to try this salsa. The salsa is there for you to go and try right now. Sweet Jebus you need to try this salsa. When you do I'm fairly certain you'll thank me. And bring then me some.
