Whole family did eat even my I don't like Mexican son. Got there about 6:30 pm on a friday , it was storming they was just about 5-10 minutes wait. Chips was thicker then I like and the salsa was different hard to explain like they grilled it. It was a great pairing. All The food was great. Kids chicken and rice, steak fajita salad and verde pulled burrito. Would stop again when I pass back through town. Staff was super nice and food came out when ready one plate at a time so it was hot, unlike a lot of restaurants that wait on whole table to be ready.

I had heard whispers in the barnyard for weeks about this place. "Authentic." "Life-changing."…read more"Unlimited chips." Naturally, I assumed it was another one of those trendy farm-to-table establishments where everyone stares at you like you're both the customer *and* the menu. But after one visit to *Tellos*, I can confidently say this was the finest dining experience of my entire porcine existence. First impressions matter. The moment I trotted through the door, my snout was assaulted--in the best possible way--by the smell of roasted peppers, sizzling onions, cilantro, garlic, lime, and slow-cooked meat. For a brief moment, I forgot my own species. I forgot taxes. I forgot the electric fence incident of 2023. The aroma alone nearly made me levitate. The décor was immaculate. Colorful papel picado fluttered from the ceiling like festive little flags announcing, "Yes, pig, you are safe here." Hand-painted tiles lined the walls. There was a fountain in the corner that made me emotional for reasons I still don't understand. The music? Soft mariachi mixed with upbeat Latin jazz. Loud enough to feel alive, quiet enough to hear myself chewing. Now let's discuss the chips and salsa. The chips arrived warm. *Warm.* Do you understand what that means to a creature accustomed to eating room-temperature pellets from a dented metal trough? These weren't chips. These were crispy golden fragments of divine intervention. Perfect salt distribution. Structurally sound. Not one snapped under salsa pressure. And the salsa... sweet mother of mud puddles. It arrived in three forms: * Green salsa: tangy, bright, slightly smoky. Made me kick my back leg uncontrollably. * Red salsa: deep, roasted flavor with enough heat to make my ears flap like helicopter blades. * Habanero salsa: briefly allowed me to see through time. I consumed all three with reckless abandon. The waiter--whose mustache alone deserved five stars--recommended the carnitas tacos. I froze. As a pig, this was morally complicated territory. It felt like attending a family reunion and realizing everyone else was on the menu. But curiosity won. Reader, I have no words. The tortillas were soft and fresh with just enough char. The carnitas were crispy on the edges, tender in the middle, juicy enough to make me tear up. Topped with diced onion, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime so perfectly balanced it could've resolved international conflicts. Every bite was a spiritual crisis wrapped in corn. I spent several minutes staring into the middle distance afterward. The rice was fluffy instead of dry. The refried beans had actual flavor instead of tasting like edible wallpaper paste. The guacamole was prepared tableside with such ceremony and respect that I almost stood up and saluted. Then came the horchata. As a pig, I normally hydrate from puddles and occasionally garden hoses. This drink changed me fundamentally. Creamy cinnamon sweetness with ice so cold it made my tiny curly tail vibrate. I drank three glasses and briefly considered learning piano. Now we must address the service. Not once did the staff make me feel unwelcome despite the obvious tension surrounding my species. No strange looks. No whispered conversations. No "special pork menu." They treated me like royalty. At one point the waiter even said, "Take your time, amigo," and I nearly cried into my enchiladas. The only negative part of the evening occurred when I became overly enthusiastic near the salsa bar and accidentally knocked over a decorative cactus. Instead of anger, the staff simply nodded with the weary understanding of people who have seen true chaos before. Dessert was churros. I didn't know churros could exist in this dimension. Crunchy exterior. Soft center. Cinnamon sugar coating so perfect it should be studied by scientists. The chocolate dipping sauce was thick enough to qualify as emotional support. By the end of the meal, I could no longer physically stand. I had to be gently rolled toward the exit like a large satisfied beanbag chair. As I lay in the parking lot staring at the stars, belly round as destiny itself, I understood something profound: This restaurant didn't just feed me. It healed me. 5/5 snorts. Would risk existential discomfort again.

We went to another Mexican restaurant and after waiting for 20 minutes and then sitting down for 20 minutes and still hadn't gotten a drink order. We just got up and left and walked into this Mexican restaurant at 9 o'clock at night and it was the best experience ever. The food was amazingly quick, which we highly needed since it was 9 o'clock and we were starving and grumpy after the last restaurant experience. My only disappointment was they were out of. Hopefully next time I go, they will have it. It must have just been so very bad it got sold out.

So much better than the one on Washington St. atmosphere is great, waiters and waitresses are very polite and expedient. First time I had the chimichanga loca and the second time had the El Pinches Special. Both were delicious. I didn't leave hungry. Second time was with a wedding party. I had bragged about this restaurant. Every one was pleased. Prices are reasonable and most importantly the food is superb. 3rd time being here. Saturday about 7 pm. Place is busy, but got seated immediately, underneath a tv. Our waitress Jasmine being her 1st job was superb. Ordered drinks and dinner. Food was delicious. Noticed people adjacent to us watching the tv, a soccer match. A different waitress with dark hair in a long pony tail wearing glasses came and turned the volume on the tv above us which was blaring. I signaled for her to turn it down. After struggling with the remote for a minute she was able to lower the volume but was still to loud. I motioned for our waitress. I explained to her knowing it was not her fault, but this isn't a damn sports bar. Asked her to relay that to the establishment. This is a restaurant not a sports bar, if people want that atmosphere then they should go to a place like Hooter's where they don't care if your hearing gets damaged. I like this restaurant but my desire to return may be influenced by this. My sister went at a later date and experienced the same sports bar atmosphere. Says she won't go back. Went back solo. Told hostess just one but wanted a booth. She looked around, then asked me how many and if I would like a booth. DUH! I hope they return to how it was in the beginning! Keep the tv audio muted!!

Chili's is definitely bringing the heat!…read more I started with the Sunrise Dream Margarita. At a mere $6, it gave what it was supposed to give. I had two!. On my platter, O had the Nashville hot mozzarella sticks, southwestern eggs and sliders. The portion is great for sharing or as your entree. It was a tasty meal. The Nashville hot mozzarella sticks had just the right amount of kick. A plus about Chilis is that happy hour is every weekday till close. The catch is that you have to sit at the bar. Booooooo! I think that is unfair but hey, now I know. My waitress was cool and on top of things, so good customer service was definitely happening. It's a family place but good for date night too. I was visiting in the area and needed a quick bite and Chili's came through.
