I have tried a lot of the ""old school"" Mexican places in town, and Ernie's is about the best. The food isn't the most healty but it sure tastes good. I have enjoyed everything I have had, from the delicious albondigas soup, to the just-right rice and beans and terrific tacos and taquitos. At first I thought this place was a dive but the decor has grown on me over the years. It's old, but it has authentic atmosphere (unlike so many places these days.) The service is always good and the prices are fair. I do agree with another reviewer's opinion of the solo piano player - not right for a Mexican place and often downright annoying. FYI, he is only there on Sunday evenings and I usually avoid going for that reason. They have tradiotnal Mexican music on Friday and Saturday nights which is nice.
Pros: Good food, fair prices, usually no wait
