Topolobampo

Topolobampo, surprisingly, was like so many reviews I've read here. First, we were not seated at the time of our reservation, we were seated 15 minutes late (we had reservations for 8:45 and were note seated until after 9:00). Although I didn't really mind because the company I was with was great so we were able to pass the time. Once we were seated, the service was excellent - our waiter knew the menu well and was able to tell us about the wines and the dishes appropriately (He told us at the end that they have to learn a new menu every two weeks, including the wines, and they also have to know the menu for Frontera Grill. I was WAY impressed). The meal took almost three hours, which was just the right amount of time for the 5 course tasting meal we did (I was with three people and each of us got a different tasting menu - so I was able to taste 15 dishes!). I do believe however that the prices were a little high for the food, because although I was satisfied with my dishes, not everyone in my party was. The food was a little salty for our tastes (as other reviews also mention) but I have to say, the moles were some of the best I have ever tasted. All in all, I would go back - if someone else were paying for my meal again! I do however have my eye on Frontera Grill. That place looked more my style. :)
