LA NOPALERA MEXICAN RESTAURANT – Mexican
A Jacksonville Mexican mainstay with several locations around the city, La Nopalera trades on volume and theatre — guacamole mashed tableside, a molcajete that reaches the table still spitting, and platters sized for people who came hungry. Look past the combination plates and you find pollo texano, a grilled chicken breast filled with shrimp and spinach under a mushroom cream sauce, and fajitas del mar bringing fish, octopus, scallops and shrimp off the same grill. Margaritas flow. Service is quick and cheerful. Nobody leaves needing dinner later.
