Chimichanga dinner
Cliff J.

Excellent food and service for large parties! First time dining at Daniel's and with a large group, they excelled in all aspects. The chips and salsa are endless and food portions are massive so you'll have a second round to take home with you. Highly recommend!

The food was decent but seemed more Americanized than authentic Mexican, but everyone had their preferences. Plenty of booth and tables to sit and plenty of parking outside (it's in a strip mall).

Great ambiance, great service, and cold beer. Got a lunch special and it was a lot of food. Chicken taco was very good!

What a gem of a find! Just arrived in Shepherdsville staying for a couple of days to see Fort Knox, and dropped by for lunch. Flavors are a little different from the Tex mix. we're accustomed to in Texas and we loved every bit of it, highly recommend. Wonderful atmosphere, prompt, attentive, and friendly service. The food came out very quickly. It was hot fresh and homemade in my opinion. If you're in the area, definitely worth trying!

Ok so, Daniels Little Mexico has been on my radar for quite sometime. I suggested to a co-worker that we come here on a weekend but, earlier in the day. If you follow them on Facebook, you will see it is a full house during dinner. We went on a rather chilly December day. It is located in Shepherdsville close to the cluster of many other fast food restaurants that you see from I-65. It is in a shopping center with other stores. Now going in, this place is actually bigger than what I anticipated. It seemed small from their Facebook lives. We did get service in a timely manner. I just ordered a combo that consisted of beef enchilada, refried beans, and a crunchy beef taco. I only had the house Margarita and a water. There were a few of us in the group and what stood out to me was the margarita flight with the patron bottles. I didn't try any of that but, maybe next time. My food was quite delicious. The enchilada had the right amount of beef and red sauce topped with cheese. Refried beans could always use more cheese. The taco well, I devoured that in a few bites, always loaded with more meat and cheese than Taco Bell (no offense). We did not get to see Daniel himself during this visit and what's interesting is that he was a manager at El Nopal on Dixie Hwy close to the Watterson some years ago. I'm happy that he has his own restaurant and will be opening another location in the Shepherdsville area probably this year. This was a rather good experience and this definitely helped my Mexican Food fix. I'm always up for trying New Mexican restaurants and this will be in the books.

Acapulco Chicken

This is an excellent option for Mexican if you are ever in the area. Excellent food, service and atmosphere. We had a party of 5 1/2 (counting the littles) and everyone left happy and with full bellies.

Margarita, soup and guacamole

Giant burrito
Matt C.

Simply delish. The service was quick and we were served food 5 mins after our order...el rapido! Cool ambience with colorfully decorated tables and chairs. My burrito was outstanding and was as big as my forearm.

House margarita
Laura G.

The place was packed when we got there. I got a house margarita and a beef quesadilla. My quesadilla didn't really have any cheese and there was a lot of liquid from the beef. My daughter got a kids taco plate but only ate the taco. The prices were fair and the margarita was standard. Service was fine. Salsa was fine. Nothing special.

Best salmon filet in town served with two huge plates of perfectly prepped veggies and I recommend…read morethe jalapeños al plancha if you need more HEAT! 25 years of community connections!

El Tara eco is a Mexican establishment located in a shopping center just off the expressway…read moreentrance of Shepherdsville Kentucky. Me and my oldest daughter came in here for a daddy daughter date for lunch on a Sunday around noon. We were seated immediately and greeted with friendly workers. Like most traditional Mexican eateries they start you off with complimentary chips and salsa. Which is always a plus. There chips and salsa were very tasty and the salads had a good flavor. Very similar flavor to another local favorite chain el nopal. For our entrees me and my daughter got something similar. I got the Pollo Feliz and she got the Fiesta Bonita. Whixh both consist of chicken, rice and cheese sauce. Only difference is hers also had shrimp and mine came with tortillas and refried beans. They both cost exactly the same so it's a push on price wise. We both liked our meals quite a bit. I took my tortillas and made 3 burritos and still had chicken cheese and rice left over to eat. So it's good portion size. Chicken had good flavor and unlike some places they do not skimp put on the cheese. My daughter also shared similar sentiments. She liked her meal a lot. So both good plates. Overall we had a nice time. Quick, accurate and tasty service. Indoors was pretty large and had a nice vibe. They had a tasty liking dessert menu but we was in a hurry on this trip as we had a recital to get to soon. So maybe next time we go we will sample the dessert menu.
