Pitchers of water are readily available but not needed with the mild, slighty tart salsa. Also on the mild side, it has the seductive flavor of perfectly ripened avocados. The only flaw was a bit too much salt. The small size and quantity of shrimp don't justify the price. Relleno means stuffed, but it was just split in half and topped with a thin piece of steak and an egg batter.
Tacos prove a better bargain, whether ordered singly or as plates of three.
Though this place stretches the limits of authenticity, the pleasant, attentive servers smooth the rough edges and the setting alone makes Gus' worth a visit.
