This was my mother's favorite local restaurant and we went here for years when I'd visit her. Great, affordable food and some of the most polite folks in town. Two thumbs up! read more

If you haven't tried their Rancho meals, you're missing out! The Rancho Chihuahua contains everything and the kitchen sink! It is absolutely amazing and when I had it, you could certainly share! Service has always been great, the food comes out quick, and it's always been fresh and hot! read more

Excellent food! Our server Diana was wonderful and attentive. Good atmosphere as well. We will definitely be coming back again. read more

The server was polite and the menu looked great, thus the 3 stars. Didn't get to try the food or drinks. No margaritas can be served on the patio. Dogs are not allowed inside the restaurant. So only semi dog friendly. Disappointed. read more

Don't recommend poor customer service food wasn't great The plus side is you get great red salsa and a huge cup for your drink but other then that it's not a place for travelers out of town to eat! read more

Consistently good mexican food. Reminds me of the Valley. Try the jalapeno lemonade.

Don't waste your time. If you don't like the food the way it comes out they'll charge you twice. Manager's not even helpful. He blames it on the customer. It makes the waiter pay for it. read more

This place is awesome! My group and I have not eat and our airbnb left a note with a list, Walmart was first and I'm not into that so we choose this place and wow! I had shrimp tacos and a side of guacamole! Freshly made and very satisfying! It's a good Mexican stop in the middle of Mena. read more

Great Mexican restaurant. Large portions that will make two meals. Alambre with a Cold beer and lime, can't be beat.

Flavorful & hot, with generous portions. The mole sauce had a deep & tasty flavor profile. The meat was as tender and juicy. The service was quick, and the server was friendly. Great place! We'll definitely eat here again next time we're traveling through Mena, AR! We were here at Halloween time, and they had quite a few decorations up to set the spooky season mood. read more

Visited Location #1 in Mena, AR, on September 21, 2023. It exceeded all my expectations. From the prompt and warm service (thank you, Alyssa) to the delicious beverages, chips, salsa, guacamole, and Delicia Cancun (thanks for the recommendation, Alyssa), everything was superb. read more

Excellent food and service. The veggie quesadilla were out of this world good. The salsa was great and if you ask for hot they know what that really means. Their hot sauce was full of flavor and heat. Enough to make your ears itch. Good stuff. The dessert was fabulous and devoured. read more

Good stuff, the crunchy tacos are just delicious and the sauce is amazing. Also it's seems so chill in here. read more

La Villa - Combination #2 - Mexican Near Me - Mena, Arkansas

I just ate at La Villa for lunch today. I ordered the taco salad and asked that the guacamole be left on the side. I also asked for no tomato. What I received was a very hard shell with very little meat or lettuce. There was a massive amount of sour cream, and no cheese. The waitress was good, but not overly attentive, nor did she pay much attention to our table. I'm extremely disappointed, because they have always been wonderful in the past. The prices are too high for the quality of food read more

Delicious I had the pollo San Jose and it was great! Food was hot and waiter was attentive. Great atmosphere. read more

La Villa - Chips and salsa - Mexican Near Me - Mena, Arkansas

A very friendly man in a buttoned down yellow shirt (their uniform) greeted me and offered me menus and a seat on a bench when I told him I wanted take out. All the prices were moderate, the seafood salad I decided on was $11.99. By the time I had gotten back from the bathroom (clean) they handed me my takeout bag. It included a large bag of homemade chips, salsa, napkins, plastic fork and a cute tin foil created basket with my salad. The shrimp and other seafood was plentiful and really hot, it was in a brownish gravy and I got the sense it was meant for an enchilada or burrito. They added some lettuce, tomato, guac and sour cream and it was in a taco bowl. I ate every last drop and had the remaining chips with breakfast. Nice work! read more

Not the best, Mexican food definitely the best for the town that we're in not authentic with all the cheese sauce put on everything. But if you're careful with your order, you'll be OK stick with the fajitas and those are definitely yummy. read more

The food is pretty good Tex-Mex. The service is very good every time we go there. We've been several times. The complementary chips are warm. The salsa is just "ok." The gigante burrito is fantastic. read more

Amazing! Had the Ranchero Hawaiian. Try the fresh guacamole as well. Worth the stop. read more

Always fast and great food, my favorite is dalicia Cancun, fantastic!!! My sons actually get full here!!!! And that's crazy

We stopped here on the way to Eureka Springs. They brought chips and salsa as soon as we sat down. It had been a long trip so that was appreciated. We ordered a margarita and some Queso, which they were also quick to bring. Note on the margarita: they don't skimp on the alcohol . Our food was just as quick and also delicious. The staff was nice. They were wearing gloves and mask and had sanitizer out everywhere for those that are concerned with that type of thing. All in all, it was a great experience. We definitely recommend this place. read more

This was my $6.99 lunch fajita special. INSANE!! EVERYTHING was delicious. You know how sometimes the rice and beans are an after thought side dish? Nope. Not here. The rice, beans, queso, salsa, sweet tea, guacamole, tortillas, pico, and meat were oh sooooo good. We even enjoyed the music playing. And the flan? Oh so good! Yummy in my tummy!!! Would I come back? Ohhhhh yes! read more

La Villa is a fun place to go for dinner. It seems very lively and people always very happy there I see. Food is ok, but mostly just love the atmosphere read more

The salsa was pizza marinara sauce. lol This has to be one of the worst Mexican food restaurants we've eaten at. The fajitas are no bueno, and the portion of chicken is very small. I realize it's Mexican food in Arkansas, but I'd rather fast food over this stuff. **Update: My wife and I both felt ill a few hours after ingesting this crap. My advice, find a different place to eat.** read more

Stopped for lunch. Very delicious food and a lot of vegetarian options. We tried vegetable ranchero, fajitas and loved them. Huge portions. Customer service is very good read more

The only reason for the four star versus three was I was in the middle of Mena, AR. If you were to go to this restaurant anywhere with a strong Hispanic background, it would be mediocre. Because I was here in general, in the winter, in AR, was pretty decent. The wait-staff/servers were very young and phobic of everyone. But friendly. The food was pretty decent, and in one way or another efficient. Again, anywhere with large population of Spanish-speakers, it would fail. Right here, it was a good find. read more

Decent for the location. I would look into other Mexican food locations before settling on this one. The food was good but the salsa was NOT. Not much flavor and not a good taste. I had a margarita and it was great. We shared shrimp fajitas and really enjoyed them. read more

La Villa is very fast and delicious . The service is very good and they are very nice.

This place was ok. I ordered the chicken and shrimp.. the chicken was very thin and the shrimp was very small But they were seasoned well. The salsa is a bit to salty for my liking and didn't have enough spice or cilantro in it. But the hot salsa was very tasty and hot! This is also the first Mexican restaurant I have ever went to that doesn't serve Margaritas or any alcohol! But that is not their fault because this restaurant is located in a dry county. read more

The staff is very friendly and the food is always great. Some of the Mexican food I have ever eaten. I recommend this restaurant to everyone. read more

They need to get cooks that understand english. For people who are allergic to sartain foods. They also need to make their bathrooms handy cap excusable. The food is great and so is the service. One of the only restaurants in town it 5 stars. read more

Have to give one star, rotten shrimp, spoiled veggies.absolutely horrible! I wouldn't recommend this "place" at all

I got an enchilada plate and it was average. My husband got enchiladas Verde, but he said the meat had a different taste to it. Our friend said the same thing about the taste of his meat. He described the ground meat as tasting fishy. We were not sure if it was the cut of the meat or a spice they used. Our waiter seemed unhappy about having to work tonight, although his service was prompt. read more

Nice prices and good Mexican food. The server was friendly and helpful! They have good salsa!

Being from Texas, I know Mexican food. What can I say? This little gem was pointed out by my sweet cousin. We met her and her family there for lunch and we were pleasantly surprised. In fact, we had the best meal from our whole vacation in Mena here! The hot sauce was a bit lame. I think they could really improve on that with a little work. They don't make their own tortillas, but we had the corn ones and they were actually not bad at all. The dish I had for my meal was the favorite of our waiter. I can't remember what the heck it was called, but it has chicken, shrimp, and beef all mixed in a wonderful sauce with veggies and a little bit of cheese melted in. It was scrumptious and had a tiny bit of heat. We put it on rice and sopped it up with our tortillas. It was large enough to share, and that is what we did. If you are in Mena, try this little place out. It is next to Atwood's. Enjoy! read more

I love eating here. The salsa has a delicious cilantro hint. I adore their queso. My favorite is the alambre and the ranchero. We live here and go here often. It's the best place to eat in town. The price and portion size is unbeatable. Never had bad food or service. A lot of other places in town is hit or miss. This place you can count on being consistently delicious. read more

I love this place, my boyfriend and I go there all the time. The food is amazing, my favorite thing to get is a ranchero. The service is great, everyone is very nice. Everything is clean, including the bathrooms, which is a good sign because not every restaurant takes care of ensuring cleanliness! I have never had a bad experience. read more

I am very underwhelmed with their carry out service. When we order food to eat on the restaurant, we normally never have a problem and the food is always great. However today we ordered 3 shredded chicken chimichangas with no beans and once we got to where we could eat. We opened the boxes to reveal 3 shredded beef chimichangas with beans. Definitely not what we ordered and I'm kinda disappointed. read more
