Fish and Chips (what, is that Mexican? or Texan? nope just generic) - tick. It's a massive space as well, and when we were there, there were only 4 other tables. Which made it feel like one of those towns on the Mexican border, where tumbleweeds are blowing and the townsfolk are hiding behind swinging doors. Them ones. Yup, just really average, and really boring. Didn't like this brand of tequila 'n' Tex 'n' Mex very much.

I fully intended to come back for dinner, but everything on the menu sounded good and I had skipped lunch. I opted for a burrito to take back to the hotel with me. When I got back to my room and opened up the bag, I couldn't believe how big the burrito was! Wow. As for the flavor? It wasn't bad, but it wasn't quite Mexican food. It's kind of a fusion .. of what, I'm not sure. Regardless, it was a good burrito, the salsa was okay - not great. Chips were disappointing (store bought). I know I'm spoiled being from Southern California, I'm used to getting freshly made chips at most restaurants. I'd definitely eat here again. Expectations have been appropriately managed.

Plentiful portions of well observed tex-mex food (the tex is better than the mex, which has something of an afterthought-y quality now that that masterchef woman has put proper mexican food is on the telly andeverything) served by friendly staff on big ol' plates in a timely fashion. The Buffalo wings are good for the UK - and are improved by liberal application of the very well-chosen Louisiana hot sauce that lights up every table. The free tortilla chips are welcome and the Burgers hefty. A decent selection of elaborate virgin drinks will service the person who drove you along with his teetotal mates; I'm sure the cocktails are as good. Smith and Western's reminds me of when TGI Friday's opened in Reading. It was like it came from another planet where everyone was happy to see you and cleaned things and had read The Society of the Spectacle but, instead of taking it as a blistering critique of late-capitalism, had taken it as an inspirational instruction manual on the possibilities of restaurant decoration. TGI's has become a rather tacky commonplace, but Smith and Western's has been built by true believers in the possibilities of theming as an integral contributory factor to the eating experience. I recommend it - unless you're the sort of person who won't like it. You know who you are. To you I say only that the Faerie Queene was written in deliberately arcane language and that your quest for authenticity is futile. Now pass me the Louisiana sauce and shush.

The food is usually cooked very well, even though there has been the odd occasion that it has been overcooked. The bar is a kind of sports bar, in that they have sky sports news on show in the bar area. They provide a full cocktail list too which is nice when you are feeling a little exotic. The restaurant also shares its parking with the rest of the Leisure Park so there is plenty of that too. I would say overall that this place is just above average.
