    California burrito
    Laura M.

    Super yummy food! We stopped in to this place visiting family in Bella Vista. It was very tasty!

    Great food and prices! Service was quick and the employees were nice. We got a lot of food and everything we had was great. Would definitely come here again

    30% alcohol tax?

    This place charged a 30 percent alcohol tax on top of the regular food tax last night. Combine this scam with the mediocre food and we'll never be back! We have not seen this tax on any receipt from numerous restaurants and bars we frequent in Bella vista, bentonville, or rogers BEWARE

    Dry
    David E.

    So this is my 3rd time ordering from here. Very disappointed in the cook or cooks who let this meat get dry and tough. This is also the 2nd time I've asked for no greens, guacamole or salad but extra rice and beans. AGAIN the cook/cooks remembered to leave all that out but AGAIN forgot my Extras. Now I saw my waitress write it all down but yet they do not Accommodate my request Even though I am $paying$ for it. Customer service is very good. But the kitchen needs to get it together!

    Burrito lunch
    Kristi O.

    Went here today and had a new thing. I got the walley special and it was crab, shrimp, and scallops in enchiladas with white sauce and rice and guacamole salad. The cheese sauce was a bit spicy but the dish over all was the best enchiladas I have ever had.

    The food was excellent, the service was great! I enjoyed this little place on my birthday and it was a great treat! There is always time for Hispanic food! The restrooms and restaurant were very clean. It's got an older feel. The food was very fresh and right on time. The service was so friendly. We will definitely be back when in the area again!

    Presentation is good and service was okay but the food is bland and highly salted. The salsa is basically water.

    Excellent experience overall. I had the chicken taco plate, it was so good. We started off with…read moreGuac dip and it is perfectly done, chips thin and crispy with perfect seasonings. My friend had a plate of nachos. Healthy servings. For dessert we shared the Sopapilla, enough for two and that ice cream to die for. Highly recommend

    Went here for a team building work lunch. This was my first time dining here and I really liked…read morethe decor and overall ambiance, but it was really busy and fairly loud inside. There were 8 people in our group and they ended up seating us outside which wasn't a problem as it was warm and sunny. Once seated our server took our drink order quickly and followed up shortly with taking an order for appetizers. Which also came out fairly quickly. Our server then took our entree orders. He returned three or four times to replenish/refill drinks for the females in our group but ignored me and the other male in our group, until we asked for a refill. Our entree's took about 20 - 25 minutes to come out and there were several minutes between the first and last to make it to the table. In the business district of the town where most of their lunchtime weekday customers are workers on lunch break they need to be getting the food out the kitchen quicker. As for the food presentation was nice. Everyone's dishes looked really fresh and appetizing. Two of our team had the shrimp taco's and they was so much moisture in them they ended up eating them with a knife and fork. Another two on our team had the Quesabirria. They said it tasted good but had more cheese than Burria. As for my own dish, I had the poblanos with steak, which is three enchiladas covered in a poblano sauce with a side of rice. The portion was a reasonable size but the steak was chewy and while it wasn't bad the poblano sauce just didn't impress me. It was just plain in flavor, with not much poblano flavor. Like I mentioned earlier we were seated outside. I was about two thirds the way through my meal and found a small black hair in the sauce. Where we were sat was pretty breezy so I cannot say if the hair came with my meal or if it was blown onto my food, but it was not the best end to what I would call a lackluster meal.

    Staff is friendly and welcoming. Interestingly, they were…read moreplaying Cuban jazz and salsa--pleasant, but I found myself wishing for something like Selena y Los Dinos or Emmanuel Cortes to better match the vibe. The agave spirits selection is underwhelming, though that may be influenced by visiting the day after "Gringo de Mayo." The chips are comparable to standard "restaurant-style" options you'd find at a grocery store. The quesadilla is a bit unusual--there's no integrated mix of cheese and protein. Instead, the components are kept separate, which explains why the menu describes it as "baked." I initially thought that was odd, but it makes more sense now. The ranchero beans are overly salted, with little depth beyond that. While there appear to be other seasonings, they don't come through. The rice is plain and unremarkable.

    We were in town for a meeting at the largest employer in NW Arkansas, I'm sure you can guess who…read morethat is. When we arrived at the hotel late, we wanted to grab a quick dinner and I had eaten at an Abuelo's in Orlando many times. Felt like that was a solid choice for us since we knew it was not a gamble. Rick was our server and he was helpful and friendly. He brought out their trio of salsas with hot tortilla chips that felt like they were made minutes before. Not sure if they are, but they did taste fantastic! I love their queso here, and they had a Diablo one that I hadn't had before but we decided to get the dip trio- queso, Diablo queso, and guacamole. What an epic decision! They came with more tortilla chips but also chicharrones which was sturdier and could hold up to the thicker Diablo queso and guacamole. I couldn't stop eating the salsa and dips. I chose to get a combination plate, with an enchilada, taco, and tamale. Rick mentioned they had a mashed potato side that was tasty- not expected for a Mexican restaurant but I decided to take the recommendation. Rick came through, honestly I could've eaten just the dips and potatoes and had been super happy about it. I overate, which was a problem but in a good way because I fell asleep immediately after we got back to the hotel. We were doing a crazy travel week where we were in 5 states, two countries for meetings, so not a lot of rest. It's part of a chain but this one was clean, friendly, with great execution on the food. Rick was clutch with more salsa and chips which in the end was my undoing but I didn't care. Visit here and make sure you try their dips, and the mashed potato side which may have been one of the best things I had all week. Dead serious! The next time I go I'm going to ask for no rice and beans and just get these crazy mashed potatoes. Thank you Rick and Abuelo's for reminding me that every now and then, going to eat at a chain spot is still a good thing.
