A new fan favorite, Lion on Lorain is a new spot in the West Park area of CLE.  I thought it was an all-around great taco night.  Our server was great, the tacos were amazing, and the bar itself (technically a biker bar?) was pretty nice.  I was sitting on a Harley Davidson stool.  I guess there's a first for everything.

The tacos were huge and delicious, AND they came with tortilla chips.  I LOVED the veggie taco special (pictured below... empanadas... yummmm!).  It sounds like the steak taco was a hit, too.

That night's taco specials:
Oaxacan Steak taco: Ancho mole seasoned strip steak grilled medium rare, cilantro guava slaw and spiced mango preserves.
Empanada Taco: Vegetarian bean and cheese empanada with spring greens, tomatoes and a salsa verdeWe all planned on going back because the rest of the menu sounded amazing.  Mac & cheese sandwich?  Yes, please.

(uh-oh... Riverwood has some competition!)
