    Green Chile Fried Chicken
    Lydia G.

    Not quite sure about the bad reviews. Personally being from California. I don't expect good Mexican food anywhere else really. Even in other states on the border it's different. When my family said we were going to the only good Mexican place out here I was still unsure. But when I saw Tex mex I got more optimistic. I really enjoyed the meal. The service was great and so was the music and vibes. LOVE the cilantro sauce that comes with the chips. My sister in law even took a container to go. The salsa is also really good. I don't care for hot sauce type salsa. I prefer thick, chunky, slightly spicy one and that's what you get here. Being Tex mex there was a lot of green chile in the menu. Not a huge fan but I went ahead and ordered the green chile fried chicken and asked for some of the cilantro sauce for it. The chicken was awesome and really hit the spot. Rice and beans were good. I like when the beans come with cheese but that might be a California thing and not many places can top my grandmas rice but these sides were adequate. We also had the sampler appetizer. I only tried the flauta because that's what I intended to order for my meal and it was good, I would recommend. The iced tea was really good. Not sure if it's sweet tea, probably was cuz it was sweet but it had just a light flavor and one of the best teas I've had. My family really likes this place so I'm sure I'll be back in my next visit to Murfreesboro and I actually look forward to it.

    Disappointing. This location of Chuy's has gone down since Covid. To begin with, the table was extremely sticky. The floor looked as though it had not had a thorough cleaning in a while. There was food under the tables from previous diners. The restaurant was not busy on this Wednesday night at all so whoever was responsible to clean had plenty of opportunities. The margarita was syrupy sweet. The beef fajita tacos al carbon had an unbelievable amount of onions on them and very little meat. The chips and salsas were fine. Additionally, our server did not know why the chile rellenos were not on the menu, but thought maybe they had them on the weekend? Frankly, she seemed confused about several of the items on the menu. If one does choose to go here, do pickup or delivery, but keep in mind that if the public places (I.e., the table and dining room floors) are dirty, how are the places one cannot see (I.e., the kitchen) kept?

    I've been going to this same location for the past 16 years, and not once have I had a horrible experience. Chuy's is still one of my favorite Tex-Mex restaurants. I recently enjoyed their new Chile relleno, with its light and crunchy batter, and flavorful filling. I loved this type of batter than the egg one that's found at most Mexican restaurants. I also ordered my favorite ponchos. Can't go worn with that! Our server was wonderful and kept up with our table. The environment is alway so upbeat and fun!

    Taco Salad

    My first impression about 11 years ago was just "meh". However, I gave it another try. It certainly has some items that are very good and what is would say are exclusive to Chuy's. Anything with Creamy Jalapeño is going to be great--I could drink that stuff. I usually order a large order to go. Recently, I tried the taco salad--Very fresh and filling. Probably one of my favorite menu items so far. The oven roasted chicken truly gives it a better flavor than basic chicken or even grilled chicken which I what most other restaurants have. They also have great salsa which I also get an order to go.

    Strawberry Mojito

    We popped in for a Sunday morning brunch. Go early or later in the afternoon. Bc people were lined up like it was Black Friday. A lot of the favorites are gone, but these Flautas were yummy. I might nix the red sauce next time. Light crisp and packed with flavor. Mojitos was excellent good mix of mint and strawberry.

    I come here regularly and it never fails. Dipping sauce and salsa always deliver! Humble and hard working staff. Enchiladas are delicious as well as the fajitas and drinks ! It can get crowded but you can a join the waiting list online or wait for your text!

I popped in one day after running errands around Murfreesboro and when I first saw that it was an old BK converted into Mexican restaurant, I thought to myself this is either going to be distrusting or delicious, and lucky for me it was the latter! El Cubilete serves up authentic Mexican food, and while you can still get the classics you are used to, they focus a lot on the true Mexican classics. Being the gringo I am, I went with my tried and true chicken, rice and cheese sided with some chori-queso. While the order was basic, the food itself was not. The queso, chips, chicken, tortillas and everything was fresh, hot and absolutely delicious. To with the food, they brought out their house red and green sauce. SPICY is an understatement, but I could handle in small dabs, and through that realized while the green was milder, the red had better flavor. But honestly it was lose-lose for me with those sauces. In addition to the food, they have a small drink menu with beers, frozen drinks and a solid selection of agua frescas. Service was stellar. The owner was super kind, welcoming me in, checking on me during my meal and ultimately ringing me out. All the servers were friendly and helpful. Overall, odd layout and set up, along with service being communal (everyone serves everyone together), which is a bit odd...but even with all that, the food and service speak up and stand alone. Great spot with good folks and tasty food! I would certainly swing back through when in Murfreesboro.

We've been…read moresearching for so long and I had honestly given up multiple times, but like all great explorers, we endured and persevered. Taqueria Lupita is a great spot nestled inside a gas station market. As soon as we walked in, I knew we were in for a treat. The smell of meat on the griddle and the aroma of toasted tortillas met our noses and it made my mouth instantly start salivating. The team behind the counter was working fast and got our order out super quick. I opted for a chicken burrito and it took all of my self control to keep from eating it on the drive home. But like all great explorers of old, we had to take our bounty back to the motherland for all to enjoy. I cut it open and see what the cross section looked like, and it was practically perfect. I forgot to ask for avocado, so that's on me. We got the red and green salsas with it and they were both great. I loved the roasty undertones and heat of the red salsa. The first bite of this burrito took me back to another place, far from Tennessee. It was a glorious first bite. The melty cheese, the rice, beans and the chicken combined to make the most delicious symphony of flavors. I can't say enough good things about this burrito, you have to try it for yourself. I'm eager to try more things on their menu, especially the torta, it looked amazing.

It may have taken us five years, but we finally found a Mexican spot that will definitely be in our rotation. It's located inside a small gas station, which confused us at first. But once we walked in, it was clear where to order. Both guys working seemed extremely kind and helpful, and overall just happy to be serving people incredible food.

It appeared that they had a group of people in the center of the restaurant whom everyone was trying to take care of. The taste of the food in all honesty was 1 step above Taco Bell, and I love some Taco Bell, so that isn't a dis at all. My boyfriend and I both had burritos, mine had carnitas and his had the option of ground beef and chicken. He said the chicken was so bland, that the only way he knew it was there is that it fell out of the burrito. Would I go back, yes, because it reminded me of when I lived in Chattanooga.

I arrived and my server Raquel got me set up with a beer and brought me some chips and salsa. The Pozole Verde is HUGE, enough for three people because I was only able to make a small dent in it. The chips were crispy and the salsa surprised me, great flavor! The Pozole is a rich stew loaded a solid green tomatillo/chile broth, shredded chicken, hominy, while you add the sides of radish, lime juice, lettuce, cilantro, and onions. The spice level (I am a wimp) on this stew is close to the top of my range causing some sweating and sniffles. The downside...the furnishing could use some rehab. Upside...good food and service, I'll visit again to try their Birria Ramen.
