The food was delicious all the way around. The flavored mojitos were refreshing and had the perfect balance of flavor.

Best margs, queso and tacos on the lake. Server was well informed, attentive and fast. Ambiance was clean and casual. We were just looking for a meal and a drink but ended up having a delicious meal with well made drinks. We will be back! read more

Chicken fajitas were tasty with high-quality white meat and grilled veggies. The view from the outdoor patio is beautiful in the evening, as you can see the rolling Ozarks with fog in the distance. They had live music with a guitarist who played mostly 90s acoustic rock covers. Fun guy who engaged the listeners. They also had mango cart beer on tap! read more

Definitely try this place Our waiters name was Alonso, he was very professional, and was knowledgeable of the menu and recommended some meals for us next time. read more

This place used to be in a food truck - and has (now) moved to a bricks and mortar place place. The menu is really expanded compared to the food truck - which is a good thing - as this place always needs good/better food options. This place does just that: Chips and salsa: Both very good. The hot sauce (still) wasn't too hot at all. But did have a good pepper flavor. Asada street tacos: meat had a great taste. A great tasting taco for how they put it all together. Enchiladas: I actually like the cheese enchilada (better) than the beef enchilada. Rice and beans: Now, they sure didn't kill themselves on the amount of rice and beans you got...serving in those sink ramekins....but neither did have the flavor and taste you look for in the side dishes. The place was clean and well put together. Service did pretty good on this night. By all means, I would endorse the place. read more

The food was excellent. The waiters were very kind and accommodating. Our meals included nachos, a burrito and a sampler plate. Even the beans and rice had great flavor, which for my experience, is very rare. You could tell everything was freshly made. read more

Stopped in for an afternoon drink before a wedding at Dooley's Chapel. The bartender was friendly and his recommendation of the House Margarita was spot on! Not too sweet and just enough ice with salt on the rim. The menu looks fresh and we'll come back for food someday. read more

Delicious tacos, Mexican corn and a Mexican Coke to top it off. I'll go again for sure.

Alonso was a great waiter!! The food was incredible! The pollo ala parilla was delicious, so was the guacamole and chips. The sunset was beautiful as well, the cherry on top of a great meal! read more

Great food with good presentation. We wish we had this in our home town. The food is a bit pricey, but this is a heavy tourist area. Service was amazing as well. read more

I was super disappointed with my meal this evening. I went to Shady Taco about 1 month ago and only had a cocktail and it was not only delicious but the presentation was gorgeous. When I returned this month, I was excited to try their food this time, I thought the food had to be as tasty as the cocktails- man was I wrong! Not only did we have to purchase our chips and salsa (most Mexican restaurants I've ever been to offer the chips at no charge) but the menu was super basic with no explanation of what the meal might come with. For example, the menu just says Street Tacos and the types however it doesn't indicate how many or if it comes with anything such as rice or beans- just Street Tacos. When asked the waitress, it was sadly difficult to understand the answer. Just so you know - 3 tacos and nothing additional. I ordered the Asada Burrito (it indicated it was filled with beans, rice and it came with a side of sour cream and a dollop of guacamole.) my friend ordered the Supreme Burrito which was ground beef smothered in queso. Sounds good right? Well when it was brought to the table I was impressed with the portion sizes but the temperature was less than desirable and the flavor, well let's just say I think the name of the restaurant might speak for itself. I honestly have no idea the flavors in my mouth and my friend had me try hers to see if I could figure out what she was eating. The best description I can come up with is Shady. Something was for sure off with both of our meals. And we were the only two eating at the time. It wasn't crowded, I didn't see a chef so my best guess is our $36 meal was microwaved and that doesn't include a drink. We stuck with water for the evening. I can honestly say, I won't be going back even though it was very convenient to my condo location. read more

Fantastic tacos and efficient, friendly service. The meat and fish were very fresh and well-seasoned. Just the right amount of kick without being too spicy. The view is stunning and not in too busy of an area. A hidden gem! read more

Been coming to Pzazz for the last couple years and not gonna lie. Was sad to see it close. Showed up today to try out the "new" restaurant to find it was a Mexican restaurant which is not my fav, in fact normally last on my list but my wife's favorite. Wasn't expecting anything different than every other.......and then the fresh Arnold Palmer and the burrito supreme, great flavor and nice portion. Real good food. If you a looking for a Mexican joint that actually has some flavor, you gotta try Shady Taco read more

Authentic Mexican, happy hour drinks, you can use the pool while you eat and drink. I think it checks every box. Definitely will be back.

Fantastic food and service!!!! Will be coming back again. Beers are cold service is the best around.

Food was good but service could use a little work. Had to ask for salad dressing for the salad and not good on refills. It's ok.

Great food and service best Mexican Food in the area. A little hard to find but well worth the search. Indoor and outdoor seating great ambiance. read more
