They offered about eight different lunch specials that ranged from $10-$14. I ordered the pick two and it was extremely tasty. I got the chicken chimichanga, a chili relleno, rice, and beans. Everything on my plate was just absolutely delicious. It had so much flavor to it. Often when you go to Mexican restaurants everything just taste the same, but not here! They definitely concentrate on their flavors. The salsa was also delicious. They also had some interesting daily drink specials. I think I will definitely have to come back on a Tuesday for their margarita flight for $12.99. They also offer a new soft serve margarita which definitely sounds interesting. We will be back for margarita day!

The restaurant was clean bright, and had a great atmosphere. We'll be back!

We were kept in refills for chips and drinks and everything was great. I got the Carne Adada bowl from the lunch menu again, with quinoa and black beans. The item allows you to choose your grain and your bean type. I couldn't remember about the sauce so I got it on the side and opted for no cheese. The beef was full of flavor and tender and I enjoyed it again. Casa Jaurez is full of color and lots of items for purchase in the lobby. If you have a group that likes Mexican, this is your spot

I found this restaurant while looking around on DoorDash and decided to drive down and try it in…read moreperson. It was less than five minutes from my house, and what really caught my attention was the strawberry fried whatever it was that I saw on the their emails website . It looked so good that I decided I wanted to go there, have dinner, and then get that for dessert. Since I don't eat much dairy, there honestly wasn't a whole lot on the menu that I felt comfortable ordering. I decided to get the birria because I've had birria at other Mexican restaurants in the past, and it was usually mostly meat without a lot of cheese. That was definitely not the case here. These were mostly cheese filled with just a little bit of meat in the middle. The sauce was good, though, and overall the food was okay. One thing I noticed was that I wasn't initially given any chips and salsa. I didn't say anything because I assumed maybe they just didn't offer them. After my meal came out, though, the waiter noticed that I hadn't received any and brought them to me. I appreciated that he noticed without me having to ask. Still, it was interesting because I couldn't help but wonder if being there alone had anything to do with it. Dining alone can sometimes feel like you get overlooked compared to people sitting at a table with several other people. I can't say for certain that's what happened here, but it did cross my mind. The service itself was actually good. The guy checked on me several times, although he did seem a little annoyed at times. I couldn't tell if he was annoyed with me or if something else was going on, so I don't want to assume, but I definitely noticed it. The restaurant itself is big, spacious, and would be a great place to go with a large group. If you want to make sure you get the best service, I would probably recommend sitting at the bar. Since this was my first time there, I didn't know that going in. One of the customers sitting outside actually told me that this was going to be the best Mexican food I had ever had. I'm not sure I would go that far, but I also have to be fair because I'm not really a huge Mexican food fan to begin with. I do love refried beans, though, so I ordered a side of them. I was surprised when they came out red because I've always thought of refried beans as being brown. They also weren't really my favorite, but again, I'm probably not the best person to judge Mexican food because Mexican food just isn't one of my favorite types of food. Honestly, I wasn't even there expecting some amazing Mexican food experience. I mainly wanted something fried, sweet, and tasty. That was the thing I was most excited about. Then came the biggest disappointment. When I was finally ready to order the strawberry fried dessert that had originally convinced me to drive over there, I was told it was only served during the lunch hours. I was definitely not happy about that. After everything that had already happened, finding out that the one thing I specifically went there for wasn't even available during dinner was a pretty big letdown. So overall, I would say the restaurant has a nice atmosphere, plenty of space, and the service was generally good. My food was okay, but the birria had much more cheese and much less meat than I expected, the refried beans weren't really my favorite, and the dessert I specifically wanted wasn't available during dinner. I did appreciate that the waiter noticed I hadn't received chips and salsa and brought them out without me having to ask. I may give it another try sometime, especially since it's so close to my house, but I would probably try something different next time. And if I do go back, I'll definitely be checking the hours for that strawberry fried dessert first because I'm not driving over there again thinking I'm getting it only to find out it's a lunch-only item!

I also had the house margarita (tasty) and chips and salsa also tasty. Usually go to the San Jose in Crestwood, but this once is more about atmosphere.

Amigos Cantina might be the place to go in Kirkwood, which strikes me as the kind of place where the spice level is often inquired about. I'm not even sure if there's a Taco Bell nearby. I did a five-mile run before I sat down to eat, but it was mostly through residential areas. I kept the volume at a reasonable level, out of respect. I never actually went into the restaurant. A member of our group went in and requested a table for like 12, but then we just ended up sitting at the tables out front, on the sidewalk. We were considering those tables anyway, as connoisseurs of al fresco dining, but someone said there was also a patio out back. If the interior is anything like the sidewalk out front, I'm sure it's just lovely. The signage reminds me of the branding on one of those taco kits you get at the grocery store. I consulted Copilot while I was at work, doing desk calisthenics, getting myself pumped up. You may recall that I also sought its counsel before a trip to a Jersey Mike's a while back. (If they've yet to release a version of it in Italy, they might consider calling it Consigliere.) Specifically, I asked it the best thing to order. It recommended a few entrees featuring the shrimp, which must be highly regarded, and a certain kind of margarita. I can't remember which margarita it was, and I didn't end up ordering it. Separately, I saw where someone posted a picture of a flight of margaritas, and I knew I just had to have that. I've been obsessed with flights of drinks since I saw one was available at a brewery I recently visited. I didn't get one, and I've been kicking myself ever since. It might be my life's greatest regret. With the flight, you get to pick four of six available flavors. I got the peach, amaretto, raspberry and pomegranate, and I know one of the other available flavors was orange. It comes in its own custom tray, designed to be carried without being spilled. Each one is a decent-size drink, but they're not especially stiff. Ayo! As you might suspect, given the (overall) amount of alcohol you get, it's not exactly top shelf. But it's not the Kool-Aid-tasting swill that comes from a dispenser either. Of the four I got, I preferred the peach and raspberry to the amaretto and pomegranate. I went with Cilantro Lime Shrimp, which *was* in fact one of the recommendations from my trusty copilot. It was great! It's served over rice, so it kinda soaks up the liquid from the shrimp, but without becoming overly soupy. They obviously make these all the time and have gotten it down to a science. They fan out the shrimp on the plate so it seems like they've given you more than they have, but it's still a pretty decent amount, for a dish that's not that expensive. It's garnished with fajita-like peppers and a surprisingly piquant, erm, pico. The lime really sets it off. It's served with tortillas, and I packed each one with a bit of rice in addition to shrimp, peppers and what have you. It made for a surprisingly hearty meal, like one of those cans of soup that's advertised primarily to men. If, for some reason, I find myself in the area again, and I'm in need of a burrito, I'll be back, and hopefully I'll take a look inside and explore the menu further.

Based on the rating we were nervous but couldn't be more happy we stopped by!!! We ate on the outside patio and didn't have much of a wait at all -- ordered at the counter and they call names over a speaker so we could hear even outside. Everything was good but the steak nachos grande are the way to go here. These nachos are made with real cheese, not the liquid stuff. They had fresh guacamole and the most delicious grilled steak. Only complaints, next time I'd order extra steak (but that's typically expected with nachos) and tomatoes from a can but not fresh. But for being fast food and for the price I was very impressed. Even margaritas were great, not too sticky sweet as you sometimes get (at least time) and even as a fast food joint they put salt on the rim.
