"Our experience at the restaurant fell short of expectations. We only saw our waiter when we had to flag him down for assistance. My beef burrito was disappointing, as I struggled to find any beef in it. We ordered Nachos Grande as an appetizer, but our entrees arrived before the nachos did. After I mentioned to our waiter that my meal was unsatisfactory, he took it away without much response. Later, when I inquired about the nachos, he brought them out, but they were clearly sitting for a while and had turned into a gooey mess. There were supposed to be pieces of chicken on them, but we only found a few, and most of the plate was just piled high with lettuce. Unfortunately, what I got to celebrate my birthday was poor service, cold, poorly prepared food, and a lack of acknowledgment from the waiter about my complaints. The cashier did ask about my experience, but he didn't offer to make things right. On a positive note, the band playing that night was enjoyable."

They are the best Mexican restaurant I've experienced in a long time. I wish you were still here in Onawa! View menu

I've eaten here numerous times, and I've always been impressed! You really can't go wrong with the tacos or enchiladas. It's definitely worth the 30-minute drive from Carroll!

While some of the other dishes are decent, they don't come close to authentic cuisine. However, their fajitas are fantastic, and I have to commend the margaritas too—they're a big hit! I also really enjoy the white cheese sauce.

I visited for lunch and was thoroughly impressed. The value for the amount of food was outstanding—just $5.25 for a generous burrito packed with rice and beans, along with complimentary chips and mild salsa. The service was extremely fast and very friendly! View menu

During our visit, the manager displayed very unprofessional behavior. My family and I asked if we could place our order before another group seated nearby, and although he took our order, he ended up bringing us the wrong drinks. We waited an hour for our meals, and when we decided to leave without them, we were only charged for the drinks. To make things worse, the manager accused us of lying and demanded proof that we had been there for an hour. We used to come to this restaurant regularly, but now we will be driving to Atlantic instead.

I visited this restaurant while traveling through Denison after coming across a review titled "100 Places to Eat in Iowa Before You Die." Although the title sounded a bit morbid, the recommendation was definitely spot on. The restaurant was bustling on a Thursday evening, but I was greeted and seated right away. They served a basket of warm tortilla chips accompanied by a mild salsa. I ordered the recommended dish, a steak burrito topped with cheese, and it was incredibly tasty. The cheese sauce had a gentle flavor and a creamy consistency similar to Alfredo sauce. The service and staff were very friendly as well.
