Taco Tuesday in Alabama and I had no idea where to go. La Hacienda was about 6 minutes from my…read morehotel so I gave them a try for lunch. The friendly hostess greeted me as soon as I walked in and took my to a table. My waiter brought me water soon after along with chips & salsa. As I looked over the menu I realized many of the other patrons were regulars. I loved hearing the friendly banter between customers and staff. I ordered the carne asada street tacos which are served with refried beans, rice and a guac salad. One thing I really liked is the onion and cilantro are on a separate plate so I could control how much went on each taco. The carne was delicious!! I could eat a plate full of that steak by itself. Everything was delicious and I have added La Hacienda to my places to visit when I'm back in the area.

Hot chips and spicy salsa were brought fresh to the table. Menu had a lot of variety with a twist. Not your average Mexican menu! I chose the Hawaiian Bowl. Seasoned steak, chicken, shrimp, pineapple and chorizo served over rice and whole beans with pico and cheese sauce. This was amazing!! Couldn't ask for a better meal! Reasonably priced! Service was excellent! This would be our Mexican restaurant of chose if we still lived here, hoping they expand to Birmingham. LOL Stop in for an excellent meal and service, you won't be disappointed!

Meat inside a tortilla with some beans and rice, nothing usually stands out. This place does! The inside is beautiful, clean and open. The servers were nice and polite, albeit they didn't speak very good English, but that is okay. The food was outstanding. I got the Cali burrito and the chicken inside was fresh, moist and well seared on a griddle. Everything seemed freshly made and tasty. We plan on coming back again!

We live about 7 miles from The Shoals Shack and decided to try it out. The person that took our order was very nice and recommended a few choices which was spot on! I had the Shoals burger and onion rings and my husband had the Shack Attack with fries. We also ordered the pecan pie bread pudding. We were both blown away! The burgers were so good and the onion rings were perfectly crispy! The place was very clean and the staff were friendly. I absolutely recommend this place!

Shoals Shack was my personal choice, and I think I out bought the rest of our crew compared to the restaurant they chose. ;) it was so good! This is a small building on the outskirts of Florence. There's a little parking lot but it's carryout only. I was able to place my order online about 20 minutes before we got there. It was easy and you can even make modifications to your order, which is great! The website said my food wouldn't be ready till 1:45 (I think I ordered ~1:15 or so) but we pulled up at about 1:35 and it was waiting for me! I walked right up to the window and a friendly employee asked if I had an online order. I agreed and confirmed my name and the food was mine! Easy peasy and it was still super hot and not at all soggy. I ordered the Bella burger, which is a burger with mushrooms, Swiss, garlic mayo, and fried onion strings, though I asked for no onion strings on mine. I got a side of French fries and a cup of ranch for dipping. My order was made correctly. The fries were pretty basic but good -- hot, crispy, adequately salted. The ranch was delicious ranch and perfect for dipping. Unfortunately one of my fries did have a small, straight, dark hair attached to it. I'm not wildly squeamish about these sorts of things and it was sort of sitting by itself not touching other fries anyway, so I just chunked it and went about my business. This is really my only complaint for the whole experience. That burger...wow. One of the best burgers I've had in a long time. Perfectly cooked, juicy, a little unctuous but not too much. Soft bun, not soggy, right amount of melt on the cheese, meaty mushrooms in the perfect proportion. And lastly, the garlic mayo really pulled it all together. It was creamy, not overly garlicky, and spread just enough to get a little bit in every bite. I will be hard-pressed not to return here when I'm next in the area. Truly, an awesome burger! I'd be curious to try their other menu items like chicken sandwiches or tacos as well. Thanks, Shoals Shack!
