We got 2 adult entrées, a kids meal and 2 jars of salsa and spent less than $45 with carry out. Good place to eat if you're wanting Mexican-ish style food. Also they apparently did a remodel and it looks pretty cool. I have not seen inside yet.

This spot holds a special place in my heart as an Ozarkian. Plus, their Flying Ace Lager is absolutely delicious!

Here's the thing, Almost everything I've tried from burritos, enchiladas, and tamales, all of them are very bland. Adding sauce helps but itdoesn't make then taste like what you'd expect from the dishes in question. Service is also mixed. Table servers are alwaysgreat and check in frequently. On the flip side, items are consistently forgotten on the orders. The positives, the chips arereally good, not overly salted an the sauces. The sauces are what keep me coming back. I've a very high tolerance to heat andtheir hot sauce makes me feel the burn. The mild has a nice flavor and the sweet, while not for everyone is a funtwist. Strangely, while the main dishes are bland, all of their toppings and garnishes from the lettuce, cheese, and tomato areof notable quality that's hard not to notice. All of the locations are usually clean and very heavily themed making for a funexperience. If there is one thing I can recommend, due to the quality toppings the tacos are honestly really good.

The mild is so sweet, the medium is just the mild thickened with a few chunks of tomatoes and the hot is unedible. Everything is smothered is what can only be described as chili(minus beans) When the hostess checked us out she admitted to not liking the food either. The waitress was less than thrilled tobe there. The rice was partially dried and crusty like it was old
