Kandela Mexican Grill
4.3 / 5 (8448 reviews)

Description

At Kandela’s, diners experience a blend of lively atmosphere and mixed food quality. While some praise exceptional service, particularly from attentive staff like Yuri and Giovanni, others express frustration with slow service and inattentive waitstaff. Food reviews reveal a spectrum, from delightful shrimp salads and flavorful margaritas to soggy taco salads and cold fajita nachos. Concerns about cleanliness, with reports of dirty dishes and glassware, further dampen experiences. Overall, while the restaurant has its highlights, consistency in service and food quality remains an issue, prompting some patrons to seek alternatives for their Tex-Mex cravings.

Wow! The energy from the staff at this restaurant is incredible! Yuri is the best server we've ever had—always smiling and ensuring our drinks are topped off. I will definitely be returning to this place!

Waiter was awesome! Food was bland, beans tasted like they came out of a can. Rice cold, no flavor at all. Music to loud

Giovanni (I believe was his name) was a wonderful server!!!! We had the seafood enchiladas and rancharo with one to go!!! The food was fresh hot and had enough to bring home for later. If you chose to go here ask for Giovanni!!! He was the best server I have had in Jonesboro in a very long time. We sat in booth 13 yesterday just in case that wasn't his name!!!
