That is, until Chilitos set up shop in Jamaica sometime this year.    Located less than a minute from the Bob Marley museum on Hope Road, this new “JaMexican Cantina” serves up menu items such as Quesadillas, Burritos, Tacos and Enchiladas.    The customer service here borders on excellent. Everyone was courteous, pleasant and responsive, so much so that in writing this review we did in fact feel a little guilty pointing out the areas in which they faltered.    Our party had Quesadillas, Tacos and Nachos with cheese. The grilled chicken Tacos, though a little heavy on the salsa, were quite good. However no one in our party enjoyed the beef tacos (or the beef quesadilla for that matter). Though we could not quite put our finger on what was wrong, we think it had to do with both the consistency of the ground beef stew, and the fact that the beef somewhat lacked the spiciness we'd come to associate with Mexican food. Regardless, the grilled chicken quesadilla (sans beans) was a treat.    The ambience and decor is not much to write home about. They just about got it right with the indoor setting; on the inside there is a deliberate use of bright colours and wall hangings that give the place a "Mexicany" feel, but all that is spoilt by the very plain outdoor seating area, white plastic chairs and all. Since the indoor dining area seems to house only two or three tables, chances are you will be sitting outside.    Nevertheless, our overall experience was a decent one, one that provided us with “something different”.    If you happen to stop by anytime soon, be sure to let us know how it went!
