Asada tacos
Steve G.

Lucky this place is across from my hotel, where I stayed one night on the way from NJ to MO. The asada tacos were unreal with perfectly seasoned beef in authentic corn tortillas. Their 20-oz drafts topped off my dinner at one-third the price of drinking at big-city Major League Baseball games.

Beef Burrito

When we went in we were seated pretty quickly. The place looks like it could use some improvement (it's in an old Wendy's building) but they have done an okay job with what they have. If you don't mind loud locals (good for people watching/knowing all their business even if you don't want to) and not being able to hear whoever you came with it might be the place for you. We started off with chips, salsa, and a small side of queso. Chips were fresh! Salsa lacked flavor and was pretty watery. Queso somehow felt and tasted watered down too. We both ordered some form of taco salads. They were good. I felt they needed a little more seasoning and the portion was smaller than we both expected. We also ordered a beef burrito and a chicken tamale. The tamale never came and the beef burrito was bland and the beef inside was so salty. If we are in the area we might try again but order different things.

Super quick service. Margaritas were good but the mix seemed off tonight. Steak burrito was great I could only finish half. The quest was also great.

Menu

We had spent a fun but very hot day with friends at their property at Cataract Falls and we were starving by the time we arrived for dinner. We were seated immediately at a booth and social distancing was being practiced with every other table/booth closed. Our server was prompt, answered menu questions, very polite and friendly. Everyone ordered drinks, chips and salsa was delivered and our queso arrived moments after we ordered. The queso was warm and creamy and our first and second basket of chips with salsa disappeared almost immediately. Each of us enjoyed our dinner of Steak Fajita Nachos, Shrimp Quesadillas, Steak Burrito and Enchildas stuffed with shrimp and crab. No one was disappointed and noted we'd be back. We will definitely return when we're in Cloverdale and craving Mexican food. The restaurant is located right off of I-70 with easy access.

Shrimp fajita nachos supposedly with lettuce. No flavor at All

Showed up just 20 minutes before they closed. Great service and outstanding food. Large portion on XX for a very inexpensive price.

The first time I stopped here I left because they didn't offer a la carte tacos and I wasn't in…read morethe mood for a meal. The second time was better because I had the time to sit down and enjoy my food. I was greeted upon entry and treated like a queen for my entire duration. My needs were anticipated and my server delivered. This is a great place to dine alone, with friends, on a date, having a gathering, etc. There is plenty of space as well as a couple of private rooms and outdoor patio area. On the day I visited. I ordered the shrimp tacos which were plentiful and authentic tasting with the corn shells. They were cheesy and running over with a side of rice. Just what I like. Would I go again? Absolutely! Would I get the same dish? Yes, plus more.

I have now been here twice and can honestly say this spot is AMAZING! Margaritas are the best I…read morehave ever had. I am happy to know that you can get a mimosa or champagne as well. Nothing is better with chips and salsa than bubbles. I highly recommend Plato Ranchero. One of the best dishes I have ever had. The Flautas are also tasty. I would order the salad on the side next time only because we spent quite a bit of time chatting. Salas are delish. Ask for the spicy one. You won't be disappointed. Staff....beyond friendly and accommodating. Both visits we had a wonderful experience. Atmosphere is beautiful. Absolutely a must stop.
