Walked in with my Pops for lunch. Walked out grinnin'. Ede's IS good, plain and simple. Did not do my usual bathroom check so I can't really say they have one. The restaurant itself was clean and maintained. I noticed a patio outside but we chose to sit in and peruse the menu while we ate. Bebidas(Drinks): Negra Modelo on tap is like winning the lottery, well close anyway. Bohemia IS like winning the lottery! Any Mexican joint that serves Bohemia is already ahead in the game as far as I am concerned. Sadly, many do not so Negra is more common. But I win on this day :) Comida(Food): Chips, Salsa, Frijoles(Beans): Chips are hot, fresh and crispy. Thin style similar to Chevy's. Salsa had great flavor but needed more heat for my dad and me. Understandable considering the demographic of Ripon however. Holy Frijoles! Beans are critical to any self respecting Mexican establishment. Unfortunately, Lard is a bit of a pariah in this day (of yoga) and age (of No GMOs). Mexican cuisine is NOT diet/health food by nature so you're kidding yourself if you think a few grams of lard is gonna be the straw that broke your burro's back. Relax, that's what Diet Coke is for right? Lay off the chips or save up your daily points/calories and treat yourself. We only go around once after all. Besides, you can't get any better on the flavor/texture scale than lard. If the beans are runny, that's oil. If the beans are like wet cement, that's just gross. Most places don't do it right, Ede's does. Tacos, Tacos, y Mas Tacos: Between my Dad, Me and My Mom's To-Go Order, I think we got em all. I ordered the small Taco Truck Tacos and Dad got the Regulars (American size). Regulars have extra ingredients like lettuce and onions. And of course, they are larger. I got those sweet little numbers you get off a legit Mexicano Truck. No Fuss, No Muss. As they had Lengua, Pastor, and Chorizo, I felt it necessary to do my part for mankind and get all three. They also had the more common Asado (Beef), Pollo (Chicken), and Carnitas (Pork) Lengua: Perfect flavor and Tenderness simply dressed on a fine corn tortilla. Flavors complemented each other while keeping the Lengua in the spotlight. Pastor: Pastor, for those who don't know, is marinated pork that is vertically spit-roasted like shawarma or gyro meat. Not sure if this particular piggy was cooked in such a manner, but it was tasty nonetheless. Again, simply dressed on the same little corn tortilla. Chorizo: Mexican Chorizo is a childhood favorite of mine and in this case, and really hit the spot.. Pan Fried to a point where it was crispy but moist. Chorizo quickly turns to carbon if you orvercook it and you are left with a pile of acrid tasting charcoal. Not good. Ede's simple yet well balanced Chorizo Taco is dressed like the previous two on the same corn tortilla and fired on all cylinders. Dad ordered Lengua Tostada and a couple Tacos like mine. The tostada looked like a tostada and my Dad looked like a happy man. We asked our server, Yavida (sorry if I got that wrong), who was very gracious and friendly. I would not hesitate to go back to Ede's even though there are two more Mexican joints yards away.
