    Margarita
    Rhonda J.

    I honestly don't know how this place gets a 4 Star rating!!! This is absolutely the worst food that I've ever eaten! Chicken quesadilla was soggy on the bottom from the water dripping from the salad on the plate. The was not hot, not even mildly warm. The margaritas were a funky shade of green.... More like Kermit the Fog! The were 4 men sitting in the corner (1 was an employee) and another was smoking something in the restaurant. I could see the smoke but couldn't see what it was. Just not a good experience!

    Good service, authentic Mexican food, and refreshing margaritas. Hit the spot after a long day of travel...And it was awesome that it was in walking distance of our hotel.

    Chunky guac. Very good.

    Food is delicious. There are so many options to choose from. Service is exceptional. This is our go-to place when we're staying in Sykeston.

    Stopped here cuz Lamberts was crazy busy as usual. Food slightly above average but staff seemed as if none of them were happy at all.

    If I'm in Sikeston again, I'm going there to eat and skip the circus of that other place that's down the street.

    This was a tiny pitstop on our road trip from Georgia to Oregon and a tiny pitstop is just what…read morethis place looks like from the outside. We popped in on a Sunday and ordered a picture of margaritas to start off with! Here's a tip for those of us visiting Kentucky. The server looked at me as though I had two heads! He then repeated it to me, as though I must've misspoken. . . "A picture of Margarita's?" I confirmed, Ummm yes, we'll take the midday drunk special please, and thank you so much! I mean I didn't say it... I didn't have to say it... "It's Sunday" the man reminded me gently. I'm sure my face was absolutely blank. Ummmm?? Hmmm... 'Sunday you say?'... Turns out you cannot buy alcohol in Kentucky on a Sunday, and here I am trying to order a whole dang picture in broad daylight when my butt probably should've been in church if I was gunna be in Kentucky. The place was super clean. Nothing sticky icky or gooey. Outside of not offering up illegal alcoholic beverages on Sundays, our server was great! The food though. OMG. The FOOD! First, I don't know why anyone ever orders anything other than "The Special Dinner" I ordered that and 420 munchies were covered ALL NIGHT! It's like 5 entres for 12 bucks! The bathrooms were clean, there was a step so not so much wheelchair accessible. Rich and Kai LOVED their foods too!

    Was sat immediately..... then it all fell apart Chips and…read morewatered down salsa hit the table Aldi has better salsa and I love Aldi Asked for vodka & tonic. Server didn't understand had to show him a picture of a bottle of vodka No tonic went with sprite.... MCcormick vodka is literally 7 bucks a bottle at Walmart they charged $7.50 a drink HA ! I ordered "shredded" chicken nachos & 2 tostadas Partner ordered 3 hard shell tacos Food hit the table... my tostadas had watered down queso cheese on it that's it nothing else no lettuce no tomato's no onion no nothing just some alpo dog food on a watered down tortilla due to the watered down queso and nasty disgusting meat... one bite done ... $9.50 DISGUSTING THE NACHOES... HA! Again, watered down queso soggy chips and chunks of disgusting chicken with a whole 1 slice of tomato sour cream beans brown lettuce and I think it was guacamole. 1 bite done ! Partner at his theee alpo dog food tacos cause he was hungry ... asked for o ion & cilantro they came out plain had to ask AGAIN for onion and cilantro How this place was busy .... Is mind boggling??? It's in a small town in Hayti MO .... That's why ! Don't even think about stopping at this place if your passing through the food was DISGUSTING ! The servers barely understand English which is fine but come on .... You're serving all white privileged country folks ... HA ! Nope nope nope nope. I'm so mad that I wasted $60 on the food and I was nice left the guy $15 $75 bucks for a meal I wouldn't serve a RAT!
