TXK Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 Comalito is open now. Tried it last week and both the food and drinks were quite good. We had a lot of different things which added up in price but in general I didn't feel like it was too overpriced. Though I was somewhat surprised that it was still table service - I was expecting and hoping for it to be a more fast casual type of place based on their social media posts ("authentic Mexican taqueria"), for instance maybe ordering at a counter/bar, rather than waiting for a server to order a few tacos. I suppose I had assumed that Wild Oats had struggled in part because it was a bit more expensive and nicer of a place, and that simplifying the experience would bring more casual market wanderers in the door. They also changed their hours and now close at 6 instead of 8, which I understand if there aren't enough people to support being open for dinner, but selfishly is inconvenient for my schedule. Hoping for the best for them but in my opinion there's a bit of room to improve. On another note, man has the market been busy the last few times we've gone over. Vendors set up in tents in the plaza area, signage up in the produce stalls, more units full/being utilized, seasonal decorations out back. It's been nice seeing it continue to grow. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Airline rebuild was the last big project of a previous, much worse Public Works office that took a highway approach to street reconstruction. Right now Whitmire is pausing all bike lane projects that will take a car lane away. He wants the data to support the need for bike lanes on certain corridors.
