What Willowwind Bar doesn't like about El Tenampa Mexican Grill Cantina:
We ordered the Fiesta platter and a plate of 3 enchiladas using doordash. We are very disappointed with the quality of the food. It was very bland with little to no flavor and we were also missing a couple items in the platter. It was thrown together withno care and the serving sizes were ridiculous. We paid $60 for what your seeing in the pictures. It was so bad, we tasted it andthrew it away. Doordash won't give a... View all feedback.
I went to this restaurant last night, I had the best shrimp tacos ever, it was so delicious, great taste, good cooking, the mixed margaritas are so good! the best I ever tried. the server was very friendly and nice, their name is karen. I really recommend this restaurant.
Since moving to the Treasure Valley, I have been on the hunt for a decent bowl of menudo. Well, if decent is what you're looking for then this place will shatter all expectations. Their menudo is top tier fantastic. With that being said, my preference is with hominy. If I have your attention still, then let's keep going. The depth of flavors from this soup tell me this was no quick throw together recipe. My biggest concern always is if the tripe is cleaned and prepped and the flavor answered that question. It was done right for sure. It came with all the necessary additions like white onion, cilantro, lime, dried oregano and dried chili pepper. If you're into menudo like I am, then don't miss out on this. Besides the food, the service is great. Eddy is very attentive and you want for nothing. The Modelo I ordered was served in a giant frosty mug and was ice cold. The chips and salsa are good and the refried bean dip was perfect for layering on to my corn tortillas. Roll them up and dip it into the menudo. Just a suggestion if you want to give it a try. My son had a combo steak and shrimp fajitas which he said he enjoyed. You can't get any further info out of him about his food. He asked to take the rest home in a box which indicates it was better than most. I recommend this place for sure as I will now be a regular, even though it's a 20 minute drive for me.
My significant other noticed something on the menu that he thought I would like. We ordered food, and when it was brought out, ordered dessert. He got his flan, and I got chimi cheesecake. It sounded good, and it was very pretty. I was so excited to try it, but oh NO!! I took a bite and the cheesecake was SOUR!. It was frozen, so I'm not sure if they hadn't served any in a while, but it upset my stomach all night. I didn't even finish the bite, i spit it out and notified them immediately. They took it off our bill, but it literally left a bad taste in my mouth. We normally don't have an issue here, but knowing him, we won't be back.
Best Mexican restaurant in Idaho. We love this place. Wonderful food and service. Eddy is amazing. He called us primo and prima which really made us feel welcome. Plus the al pastor is so good!!!!
We ordered the fiesta plate and a plate of 3 enchiladas with door pocket. we are very disappointed by the quality of food. it was very embarrassing with little to no taste and we were also missing a few items in the platter. it was thrown together without any care and the portions were ridiculous. we paid $60 for what they see in the pictures. it was so bad, we smeared it and threw it away. doordash will not give a refund, money and time wasted.
