    Ground beef burrito with rice and beans with Guacamole.

    Great lunch with a massive burrito with delicious cheese sauce. Excellent service. I love the hole in the wall ambiance.

    Popped into the front bar area for a snack and a margarita. It was a little toasty as far as temperature went but the service was fast and friendly. We ordered the pulled pork nachos to share and the house margaritas. The nachos had ample toppings but some salsa would have been a nice addition. The margarita was perfect.

    We love Nacho Mama's! The food is amazing! The portions are gigantic! Drinks are tasty and the variety is great! It is a bit spendy but it's quality food! I would definitely recommend stopping if you're in Stillwater. Our favorite is the nachos with pulled chicken! It could easily be a meal for two people!

    Smothered Burritos

    My friend and I shared the smothered chicken burrito because it was gigantic!! The two of us couldn't finish one burrito! It was so delicious. The cheese sauce was so unique, but it was wonderful. It pulled the whole meal together. The burrito came with rice and beans which were tasty as well. We also had the chips and salsa appetizer, which was also very good. We were seated promptly even during a busy lunchtime. We ate outside and it was lovely. I would recommend going back anytime!

    Great food, large menu, attentive service, in a cozy Main Street spot in historic Stillwater! Great to meet friends for a drink or enjoy a Mexican delight meal or snack! Be patient and parking will open up, try it soon!

    Best food ever full of flavor! The service was top tier. The ambience was everything from the music, the decoration, and energy.

    The service was spectacular, Callie was the best, super friendly and very personable! The food was absolutely amazing!! I had the chicken taco salad and hubby had the chicken waffles, oh my goodness, huge portions and so delicious!! Drinks, we had the banana colada and the dirty banana. Best we have ever had!! Cute lil place, does not disappoint! Yummy!!!!

    For a Taco Tuesday, we expected it to be busier. We waited for some time at the door to be greeted/acknowledged and seated, enough time, that we went looking for someone that worked there. Once seated we ordered the nachos, figuring they must be good if they are part of the name. We also ordered a side of queso. The nachos were just okay with a weird garlic seasoning, like someone just took garlic powder and sprinkled it across the dish. The queso also had a weird smoky bacon flavor that wasn't expected and not for me. The seating area was also crawling with flies and really loud. It was difficult to hear conversations. Our server was friendly but was smacking some gum the entire time she waited on us and others. Maybe it was an off night?

    Came here while on a trip from Miami & all I can say is WOW! You can definitely come here and experience great food, better service & the best vibes. 10/10 would recommend!

    Top margarita

    This is going to be an unpopular opinion based on other reviews but I think if you find these to be the best nachos in MN, you should broaden your horizons. This place is a solid choice for a patio margarita but it doesn't seem like most things on the menu would/should far exceed your expectations. I feel bad for giving three stars because there wasn't anything wrong, but I didn't get a great vibe from the service as is typical in Stillwater, and the food is just... okay?! Nonetheless, I really wanted to enjoy it so I'll probably be back to try the tacos and another margarita! :)

    Almost gave 3 stars thinking it was bar only (we came in the front door) turns out, as we left out the back there's another room not as loud as the bar. The food was good, portions are huge (tip, they don't reheat well). We came for the nachos, but after reading the menu we realized they didn't seem "special" which is what we were thinking given the name. Cute decor, staff was nice but parking is a typical pain for Stillwater.

    This is one of my favorite restaurants to go to when I am in downtown Stillwater. The atmosphere was perfect for a Sunday night dinner. Service: The service we had was phenomenal. Our food and drinks came out in record time and the server was very attentative the whole night. Food: The food was delicious. We also shared delicioua pork nachos at the beginning. The serving sizes are huge and can be split into multiple meals. The food also heats up fairly well at home. Extremely flavorful food!!!

    The place has a fun vibe, and festive decor. The portions are huge, and if you order appetizers, then I recommend taking one main dish to share. Quite honestly, I could have stopped at the appetizers, and ended up bringing my entire main course home. Drinks are big, flavorful, but weak in alcohol.

    The tacos were very drippy, perfectly greasy, and amazingly seasoned, and the most perfectly cooked beef I have ever put in my mouth. 5

My son and I share similar tastes, but my wife has allergies and doesn't like spicy food or peppers. Olivia, our waitress, was very helpful tracking down allergy information and letting us know what was safe. We started with drinks, chips and the grilled pineapple habanero salsa. The chips are made in house and not fried in oil where fish is fried and seem to be a whole grain chip. Very tasty. The salsa was really good, but didn't have a lot of kick to it, which did mean we could all enjoy it. Drinks were very good as well, though pricey. The food is amazing. My wife had a cheeseburger with the house made ketchup and claimed it to be the best burger she's had. My son and I had the Birria Ramen, which is shredded beef, guajillo, tomato, mirin, tamari, lime, consommé, soft boiled egg, cabbage, radish, cilantro, tortilla - fantastic! There are ramen noodles, too - recommend asking for the tortillas on the side, as they come in the bowl and soak up broth very quicky. We also had deserts: I had the Mexican Brownie, and the wife and son had the Dulce de Leche Cake (not the traditional style, but very good). Over all, the experience was great. As noted, Olivia was awesome, the food and drink were great, and we do plan to return. Note, it can be pricey.

    Looked like a good place to get dinner in Stillwater. Got two quesadillas for $16 each and my…read morefriend couldn't finish hers because the chicken was gross. Service is fine and the bathrooms were nice.

I even made a point to say this to the lady before ordering my burrito. I am not going to lie...I would not go back to this particular location. There was no employees when I walked into the restaurant during a normal lunch time. After a few minutes, they noticed I was out front and someone came out to help me. I believe that she was new, because she tried and failed the first time she tried to make the tortilla. The other employee asked if she would like help, so maybe she was new, but she declined, threw it away, and tried again. Normally they only have to use the press machine once, but she pressed down on it so many times that she she completely ruined the normal fluffy almost pancake-like quality that I loved about it so much. There was no way for me to know until I bit into the burrito so I didn't ask her to remake it because I didn't want to waste food, but I wish that I would have. Left me completely disappointed and dissatisfied.
