    Rice was good. Salsa was great.

    I've yet to find a restaurant in Mississippi who can make a decent cheese enchilada. Using enchilada sauce from a can? And on a dry tortilla? And not even the correct cheeses? Give me a break. Taking advantage of the folks who live in the boonies of MS is not nice at all. If you're going to claim to be a Mexican restaurant, do it right please. I ordered a taco salad with beans instead of meat but there was almost no lettuce on it (a few small pieces were sprinkled on top). It had so much sour cream and refried beans (I thought they were going to use whole beans) that it was basically a disgusting slop of refried bean soup. Rice was good but slightly dry. Salsa was excellent. Guacamole was too mushy as if they were making baby food and not chunky and fresh as it should be. The ambience in the restaurant could be better. The lights are very bright so the ambience isn't as relaxing. You can just hear the tv, instead of festive Mexican music which would make it more fun for customers. More fun means more margaritas. The staff was very friendly. I may try something else from there to see if any other food is decent but most likely won't be back. Would rather drive for miles than waste money and a night out attempting bad Mexican food. Disappointed and hope they make real enchilada sauce and do it right.

    Stopped by for a to-go order tonight. Sorry that I didn't take pictures, but, take my word, the food is awesome! It always is! And the service is great, too!

    El Campesino has been a consistently good Mexican food hotspot for years, my entire extended family enjoy coming here. Service is top notch, as is the food. Expect a crowd on weekends especially Sunday's around noon. Kids love the cheese and guacamole dip. I had fajitas, wifey had the fajita taco all were very good and we left food on our plates due to the generous portions.

    Ok y'all if you're passing through on your way to Mobile, on your way to Louisiana or just in the…read morelocal area then stop on in here at Hacienda San Miguel! My favorite item on the menu is the Chicken & Rice with their famous cheese sauce and when I don't get that then I get the Victorias Bowl also a very tasty menu item! My hubby got the Carne Asada plate comes out sizzling every time, and you get the beans, rice and tortillas to go with it! They have somewhat updated the inside by removing some of the bench seating areas and added more tables with I think is a plus, you can sit inside or outside the choice is yours! We always have great service when we go, so if your feeling some tasty food them stop by and give them a try!!!

    The four of us that went here expected it to be good unfortunately we were very disappointed with…read moreservice and food. We selected this spot because it's located across the street from the hotel we reserved and when we got out of our car the smell of the food was good. We went in and they kindly greeted us and said it we will be seated in about 30 minutes. We accepted and greatly was seated in 10 minutes, that was the good part. We walked to the table and I saw a guest with a plate of fajita and noticed it looked bland. They gave tortilla chips and salsa, the chips had no salt and the salsa was very mushy with no taste. I ordered Birria tacos, no season. The dipping sauce is very watery taste. It came with beans that had a very improper season. The enchiladas and other orders my family had was flavorless, low quality of ingredients, guacamole was too mushy. Someone dropped a plate that crashed on the floor. It took the waitress around 10 minutes to bring our tickets to pay. Waitress didn't check in on us. We had to wait for more water.
