The price was right for Taco Tuesday! This places was…read morerecommended to us so we decided to stop in for tacos. We received the menu was it wasn't offered up regarding their Tuesday specials so I'm glad we asked. We tried both the chicken and ground beef tacos. The ground beef was a bit salty. The chicken had chunks of chicken - would preferred it to be more shredded. Overall, you can't beat the price! $1.10 each for the tacos & $2.06 for a 12oz Margarita on the rocks. Taco Tuesday! Prices are adjusted if you pay by cash rather tha Remember to ask about the Tuesday Specials when you go!

Just want to throw this out to everyone in Madisonville. I run restaurants for a living and I was…read morefrustrated when the health scores came in. But then I saw that in the next 3 weeks EVERY Mexican restaurant in Madisonville, Tellico Plains and Vonore FAILED with horrible scores. I have been back several times to Jimador and can I say that they have fixed all of the issues. They are back strong and I for one am glad because I love this place. They treat you like family and the food is good... and I don't even need to tell you how cold the beer is and how great the margaritas are. So get down to Jimador... you will see that they are stronger than ever!!!!

We had chicken & beef fajitas and chicken tacos. The dining room was way too loud and we couldn't even hear each other or have a nice dinner conversation.

This is quite possibly the friendliest fast food restaurant in Knoxville. I have probably eaten…read morehere 25 to 30 times over the last few years (I live close by) and the staff are always incredibly kind and outgoing. During the meal, someone comes around to ask if everything is ok, and then will come around later and offer to take my tray while I'm finishing up. Last fall and winter I was walking with a cane, anticipating a hip replacement surgery and, every time, someone would come from behind the register and carry my tray to my table; even going so far as to go and get my drink and my utensils so I wouldn't have to deal with it. The food is consistently fantastic as well. I can't recommend this location (Hardin Valley) highly enough!

What a nostalgic experience! Dan and I are visiting family in Knoxville. Today, we drove to Oak…read moreRidge where we used to live and had lunch at our favorite restaurant when Oak Ridge was home. I would love to move back to our Oak Ridge house. If we could move back, we would once again be regulars at El Cantarito and I will tell you why. I'm the frugal yelper. I love a good deal and I recognize value. That doesn't mean I like cheap food or don't enjoy fine dining. I just like value. That's what you get at El Cantarito. Their prices are fabulous and their food must be good quality because it tastes great. Dan and I each got a tostada lunch for just under $5. Dan got the tostaquac which included ground beef and sour cream. I got one with everything besides the ground beef and sour cream. Both had refried beans, lettuce, tomato, and guacamole. Delicious. That came with rice and beans. The salsa was delicious, just the right amount of kick. I made the mistake of ordering the large beer without asking how large it was. It was 32 Oz. Dan got one, too. That was way too much for either of us, so we left much of it. The large draft beer was $4.99. During happy hour domestics are $1.99 for a small and $3.99 large. Modelo is a dollar more. It has a Mexican diner feel to it. It looks authentic and very much is authentic. During lunch hour it is very busy and a little noisy. We recognized our server but she didn't remember us. The check just said she's #2. She didn't recognize us. #2 gave us excellent service. We couldn't have asked for any better service. Oak Ridge is so lucky to have this wonderful Mexican restaurant. I hope they appreciate it.
