Food is definitely not disappointing. Maybe it was the hunger but the first bite out of my fried taco my eyes rolled back. The bathroom situation isn't ideal as it's outside around the corner and your knees are basically on the door when on the pot and I'm not sure how often they check it as when I lifted the lid there was a present still lingering inside ... I flushed and wiped the seat..

Our cruise ship docked in Burlington for the day so Momma and I trucked into town for something…read morewith a bit more flair than ship board fare. Coming from California we were missing some authentic Mexican food so we gave Lindo Mexico a try. GOOD CHOICE! You know when you walk in the restaurant to the smell of the food and your stomach starts to growl and your mouth starts to water? Yeah. Cute place with some killer specials. Breakfast served all day. Momma had the pork enchilada plate special with red sauce. Wonderful. Clearly homemade refried beans and rice. I ordered chilaquiles plate with red sauce. Some of the best I've had. Great place. Go. Eat. Enjoy.

For Iowa, it's pretty good…read more We're never disappointed with the food. Could it be spicier? Yea, but it's Iowa. Great wait staff when we've been here. They do not take credit cards - cash only. Bummer. So be prepared.

Our friends got the fish & chips and they loved it. The batter looked very crispy and our fries were on point. Megan served us and she was very friendly and attentive. They've made upgrades to their menu and I think that their food options are getting better each time we return. We've also tried their Som Burger which is tasty and their Birria Tacos -- good but could use a little more seasoning. Overall, we love The Som and highly recommend them!

Overall it was very delicious and fries were crispy. Their fries were the lightly battered ones which I love Overall, good food, great service.

I had been talking this place up to our team to let them know it was good food. This year was different, we had 2 hours between games so we thought we would go and order a pizza. We arrived at 5:30 and got our order in at the bar. Sitting and waiting, the bartender never checked on us or our drinks. 6:20, still no pizza. Finally a different bartender comes to check on us and we ask can you find out about our pizza? He comes out and brings the pizza and it's ice cold, he said it's been sitting back there for some time and no one ever brought it out. Now we have no time to wait for another pizza. He apologized even though he was not the bartender who took the order. Then the original bartender comes back over and fails to see the problem and never once apologizes. Just said he got busy. I get it, it happens. But they just left a pizza sit back there for 40 minutes and never thought hey someone might want that? The bartender could not understand why we were upset. And he was so defensive. I told the other guy I understand mistakes can happen but for him not to own up to it and be so rude to me after his mistake. I thought it was unacceptable. I had never felt so disrespected at a restaurant in my life. It really ruined the night, especially since we were looking forward to this for so long. Extremely dissapointed and it really did ruin the weekend. Hopefully this bartender can get it figured out and not be so rude to his next guests.
