Empellon, West Village Mexican
Last night I visited the new restaurant Empellon in the west village (they took over the old Chow Bar space). The atmosphere was nice and the food was good, but nothing memorable. I ordered guacamole for the table. The guacamole was a litlle bland, but I did like the sauces it came with. I also ordered steak tacos, and a friend had the scallop tacos. The portions were not so great- around $24 for three steak tacos, with small pieces of meat (and $28 for the scallops), and they came with no sides. Overall, it was a decent meal, but I am not running to go back.
