    We came back ... of course we did!!…read more Our Red Bird Mission Team was back in Kentucky in early July and we kept talking about Mexican night. We had a couple of new comers in our group who noticed the pure joy in our voices as we talked about El Mariachi's food especially the Chicken Soup! Once again an absolute five star experience beginning with top notch service (I know a few of our group are picky when they eat out and quick to complain but they loved the service here!)! The dining area is attractive and fun plus spotlessly clean! Chips and a really good salsa were delivered immediately! I asked for some salsa verde and that was even better. Our group ordered a wide variety of menu items ... one guy ordered the incredibly large sampler platter. I went for the tamale, burrito and chicken soup! Ahhh all you need is the chicken soup (I actually went home to NJ determined to do my best to hack the soup it's sooo good and we live 10 hours away from El Mariachi's so it's hard to just stop by )! Once again it was a soup prepared by the angels!! We were all in agreement... incredibly delicious food, large portions and amazing prices. oh I almost forgot the needed margaritas!! We had had a hard day at work and we're thrilled with the huge drinks perfectly mixed and very inexpensive!! I am hoping we are going back to this mission next year ... if not I just might have to drive 10 hours for dinner at El Mariachi ... it's that good ... toss out the negative reviews ... these folks know what they are doing!!

    Mixed review. Skip…read morethe guac and sour cream. Do order anything with the shredded chicken. Service is wonderful. Very attentive. Atmosphere. There is a very persistent cleaner smell. If you are sensitive to cleaner smells, it will interfere with your eating experience. So the great. Enchilada sauce is subtle and perfect. Best I've had in a while. Best chips in the area. Solid salsa- lil' kick and smooth. The shredded chicken is juicy, well seasoned and has been shredded with care. Haven't had a bad bite yet. The guacamole is some kind of slush that has the consistency of mushed peas. So watered down with something else, it ceases to taste anything like avocados. Same problem with the sour cream. It's either the quality or it's been cut with something to make it thinner. There is no tang that sour cream should have. All other sides so far, tomatoes, lettuce, beans and rice have been of the best quality. Best Mexican I have had in KY and TN so far. (40 mile area, tried 5 other establishments.)

    Well ... that was a TOTAL SURPRISE!!!…read more SHOCKINGLY GOOD with a SUPERB EXPERIENCE!! We make this annual stop because it's the only breakfast location that is open as we start our drive back to New Jersey but always it's been ugh Cracker Barrel knowing we wouldn't be very happy. But this year was different... walked in and the warm classic store delivered that "back home" we've been here before feeling. The hostess led our group to a round table surrounded by old photos and antiques on the wall. The menu offered an array of choices and our group made a diverse selection of breakfast items Coffee delivered promptly... Carolyn was a great waitress! And, then for the surprise... THE FOOD was actually delicious and more than plentiful. I heard the comment from across the table "this is real French Toast!" And, he was smiling over his breakfast. The classic Cracker Barrel breakfast another member chose had "so much food" and when asked how his breakfast was he nodded affirmatively. My blueberry pancakes were such perfect griddle cakes with crisp edges might be amongst the very best pancakes ever. The sausage was flavorful and just right. One of the group asked for fruit and we were all jealous because it was picture perfect fresh sweet fruit! The only complaint ... where was the peg game?? But we were busy enjoying breakfast to really notice. Debbie, the cashier, just made us feel happy as we headed back to continue our 10 hour drive. I will be less critical the next time Cracker Barrel comes up in conversation... this was a near perfect breakfast.

    Another great Mimosa Brunch with the girls in Middlesboro location! Thanks to Jasmine B for such…read moregreat service! See ya next time.
