    "Mom and pop" version of Taco Bell or Taco Bueno. Great food and friendly service. My favorite is the hard-shell tacos. The Chiquita Chilada is also very good. They also serve several platters for those with a bigger appetite. Fast Plenty of seating Child chairs available Clean restrooms Drive-thru window Closed on Sundays

    I would not call this authentic Mexican food. The most authentic part was the roach on the wall. No one even spoke Spanish there.

    Went there at 2PM on a Sunday, did not see any signs about operating hours. Walked in to a dark restaurant with nobody in sight.

    A colleague and I were passing through and both really really loving Mexican cuisine decided on…read morePapa's. SHOULD HAVE WENT TO TACO BELL!!!!! The salsa was delivered in the tiniest condiments containers- ok, strange but ok. Chips were not stale- so ok. The salsa was red- thats as far as I go with calling this salsa. A can of Rotel would have been way better. Young kids would have liked this, I guess, very insipid. We each ordered Fajita Chicken Chimichangas, rice and beans came on the platter as well. The chicken had zero seasoning- couldn't see or taste any salt, pepper, or any seasoning mix at all, it was just boiled chicken. It even had the just boiled chicken taste- IYKYK. The chimichangas were not fried in the least- they were just rolled up tortillas, boiled chicken with no seasoning mix, no onions, no peppers, no flavor. We ordered queso on too not red sauce- thank goodness- it was the only flavor for the entire meal. The beans could have been great had they been maybe black beans- La Costena brand is a thousand times better than the bland plain canned refried beans we received. The rice was the same. We looked for corn, red seasoning flakes- none! We both said immediately- THERE ARE NO MEXICANS IN THIS KITCHEN! Wow! Can not believe this place is in business. But given the small area, lack of dining- ok. The exterior and interior were nice. The , also insipid, waitresses were sweeping, folding napkins and waitress duties. Our waitress was Virginia, friendliest one we encountered. She brought me 1 drink, wish I had known to conserve it because she never offered us more. The other wait staff looked as we smiled, but non smiled or spoke back to either of us. The young man taking our $25 was very indifferent as well. All in all- we left the restaurant and area very shocked. Most Mexican restaurants in Arkansas being sisters to Texas- are very good. We honestly have never in our lives had such poor Mexican food.

    If I could give ZERO stars I would. Absolutely awful experience. Took nearly 30 minutes for us to…read moreget our drink order. 1/2 of the order was a frozen margarita and it was mostly melted by the time I got it. This was after the fact that the person I was dining with had to walk up to the bar to ask for an update on our drinks and caught the person on their phone and our drinks already made... next came the fact that our food order got messed up. Took over 45 minutes between the time we sat down to receiving the food to get something in front of us. Part of the food was cold and the sour cream with the fajitas tasted like it was spoiled. That was honestly our final straw. I could hardly finish my drink, and with the food being AWFUL, we asked for the check. We walked up to the front trying to speak to the manager, mainly because the price of the food on our ticket was $5 more than what their menu showed. The manager aka the person who made our drinks in such a timely manner... said she would give us a discount. Due to the food quality. Which was a nice gesture. EXECPT FOR THE FACT THAT SHE DISCOUNTED THE UP CHARGED FOOD AND NOT THE PRICE THE MENU SHOWED. So either way we still over paid for an absolutely terrible experience. DO NOT RECOMMEND EATING HERE!!! Side note: white queso = hot milk. Had hardly and flavor and probably hardly any cheese. The salsa also tasted like store bought picante sauce.

    What a sweet little mom and pop "hole in the wall" place just east of Broken Bow on Highway 70!…read moreThere are only five booths inside and a picnic table outside so seating is limited but they seem to do a lot of business through their pick up window so I think a lot of their customers take their food to go. This is a very authentic Mexican restaurant. They do not make their own tortilla chips, however, which is just as well because normally I overeat those and have no room for my entree! My husband and I both ordered the beef burrito and I was pleased with the freshness of the burrito ingredients and noted that it was not loaded with a bunch of shredded cheese. We ordered ice tea and it was fresh brewed and refreshing. Our waitress was very sweet and helpful. We would definitely return and try some more of their menu offerings. I was pleased to see on their menu too, that they served menudo on Saturdays as well as tamales. I would definitely return for that and give it a try.

Everything is made to order in their tiny kitchen and delivered with a smile. They have canned drinks and some Mexican sodas, but do not serve fountain drinks. Their prices are also very good! There are no chicken tenders at this place, so make sure picky kids are prepared for that!

We were here on a Friday after a morning of rock-washing at Crater of Diamonds and needed a reprieve from the brutal heat. I had the Ranchero Special with chicken and my dining companion had 3 street tacos - Al Pastor and carne asada. First, the staff were gracious and efficient. Our server was particularly attentive while not being intrusive. The decor might seem gaudy, but I've seen similar at other Mexican restaurants with excellent food. It was a nice change of atmosphere after having spent a couple hours in gray, dust-brown troughs of mud and gravel, shoveling piles of rocks into a bucket to be washed in a vat of murky gritty water. Some reviewers have said the salsa was just plain tomatoey, but I really liked it -- it had some light heat and is similar to what I've had at many Arizona Sonoran-style Mexican restaurants. Maybe those reviewers were expecting jars of Chi Chi's or Pace-not-"made in New York City!?"-Picante. The Ranchero Special was fine. The flavor profile was a little one dimensional, particularly with their white queso on it. The sliced tomatoes added a bit of acidic balance to that. My dining companion said her corn tortilla street tacos were pretty tasty. The pork in the al pastor had a little fat in it, but there were also a few good chunks of sautéed pineapple there. We also had a limonado drink which was very refreshing and delicious. Overall, a good place to have a meal if you're in Murfreesboro, AR and have nowhere else to go.
