Mexican brunch at Hidalgo’s in Fullerton

June 21, 2019 Mad Hungry Woman Leave a Comment

Hidalgo’s Cocina & Cócteles in Fullerton has undergone a complete menu revamp. The restaurant recently launched a brunch menu including tacos, and more substantial offerings that are shareable, for the whole family.

Start with some tacos… Nopales & Mushroom ($11) are really good, and vegetarian-friendly. The tortillas are filled with cactus, corn salsa, red onions, cilantro and queso fresco. It is flavorful and a solid vegetarian item.

Another good taco option is Grilled Octopus ($16). A tad too much chipotle crema for my palate, but the octopus is solid, possessing a hint of char.

For your main course, there is Short Rib Barbacoa & Goat Cheese Enchiladas ($17) served with pasilla cream sauce, queso fresco, pico de gallo, crema, avocado and a sunny-side egg. I suggest sharing this as it is on the rich side. The accompanying beans and rice are delicious!

Seafood Relleno ($17) is another substantial entree. The poblano pepper is stuffed with crab, shrimp and Oaxaca cheese topped with queso fresco, pico de gallo, crema, and roasted corn. Served with a side of Hidalgo’s tasty rice.

To satiate your sweet tooth, you’ll find Churros ($8) served with a spiced chocolate dipping sauce.

Or, the Pastel Tres Leches ($7), a moist cake with whipped cream, seasonal fruit, and cactus fruit puree.

**Brunch is offered on weekends only.

About Me

This blog is a journal of mostly my eating adventures, but also, other things I'm passionate about, including travel, the arts, and also, necessities to complete my life. Centered predominantly in and around Orange County, CA, some will extend to Los Angeles, San Diego and beyond. I am constantly searching for delicious food to eat and fun things to do, nothing is out of bounds. Sometimes it doesn't end well, but I can definitely say, it will always be an interesting journey.
