Message: | In another life more than 20 years ago I used to patronize La Paloma on Foothill just west of Garey in Pomona. It is still there but I have not been back. I used to also patronize Xocimilco (not sure of the spelling) which is in a strip mall on the east side of Indian Hill just north of Holt (sign says "Mexican Food"). This place was recently written up by the L.A. Times Inland Valley edition restaurant "reviewer". The neighborhood seems marginal though, and I won't be going there.
When I want Mexican I shoot over from Chino to El Cholo in La Habra.
The wife and I also tried Baja Bob's, which is hidden in the back of a strip type shopping center (next door to the Catholic church) on Central Ave in Chino. The decor was totally non-descript, this is a restaurant in space that was probably built to be an office suite. They have a front room that seemed filled mostly by a bar, and we were in a side room. The food was pretty good though and the prices reasonable.
There are probably tons of Mexican restaurants in the Inland Empire and there are sure to be some gems. |
