First I enjoyed a couple of lengua and a cabeza taco with cilantro. These were excellent, juicy and flavorful. On another visit they were mysteriously not open. Then the third time, I had three chicken tacos which were fine. I will stick to my favorites, the lengua and cabeza. I will support any place that serves these. The lady warned me that the red salsa is hot and she was right. But it is very good as is the green. This is not Norwegian food!

Ate here for the first time today and I'm angry at myself that it took me so long to make it over!…read moreOh, I definitely have to make up for lost time. This is the best place in town to get Mexican, hands down. I'm North Mexican; Texas born and bred and only left a few years ago. Normally I head down to Des Moines when I need a legit Mexican food fix, but now I can save on gas because Mexico is RIGHT HERE in Ames! Ames has a few brick and mortar Mexican restaurants; Abelardos (fast food greasy and fried everything), El Azteca (Americanized and not remotely Mexican), Los Altos (not only Americanized and not remotely Mexican, but plain and nasty), Mr. Burrito (fair but could be higher quality), and Carlos Quesadillas (pretty legit and yummy). However, the taco trucks in town are where it's at. They get to focus on the food and not spending money on incessant marketing. Carlos Quesadillas has a truck and both the truck and restaurant are pretty good, Rico's Tacos rocks, and Torteria La Bamba is better than the fast food chains and most brick and mortar restaurants, but it's bottom of the list compared to the other taco trucks. Tacos La Michoacana is a little taco stand outside of a pawn shop selling a small menu of Mexican items. It's made to order, there are two nice benches, plastic utensils and plates, and fresh homemade salsa on the table. There's a mama in there cooking and two adolescents taking orders. The food came out within a reasonable time; hot, fresh, flavorful, and just like auntie's kitchen. If you look through the order window it looks just like an auntie's kitchen in there; big metal pots on the stove and everything. The other places might win local awards (judged by Iowa palates), but the reality is that none of them can compare to Tacos La Michoacana. They aren't flashy, it's simply fantastic food that fills you up for only five dollars. Cash only, folks. And don't waste their time with your broken and offensive attempts at Spanish; they speak English fluently. The reality is that nowhere else in town can hold a candle, but so far I've only seen Latinx people eating there. They are not here to service people that want greasy chicken covered in nacho cheese.

I fully expected the place to be packed as it appears to be pretty much the only show in town as far as a sit down restaurant. There was a please wait to be seated sign there as we walked in. We were greeted right away and seated in minutes. It's old school wood tables and chairs and I think there was a counter available. Ordering is done at the tables as well as settline your bill up with your server. Surprisingly the speed of service continued throughout the visit. After drinks we ordered the rodeo burger and fries, a tenderloin with chili cheese fries, and the garlic cheeseballs. The cheeseballs came with marinara and ranch. Fresh, hot, and fantastic! I've eaten a lot of tenderloins. Many that have been highlighted as Iowa Tenderloin Trail winners or participants... This is one of the better tenderloins I've had in the state! Obviously hand made, breaded, and fried. Not too thick and not too thin. Drained properly. Served with the essential condiments including the holy trinity (onions, dill pickles, and mustard). The gf liked her burger. It could have used more of the featured ranch and bbq sauce. The fries... Neither of us cared for them. Obviously hand made, but almost too thin and too greasy. We'd both opt for a different side next time. To each our own though. Almost every small town along this stretch of I-80 has a pub & grill. The menus vary a little, but are very similar in a lot of aspects. The quality of service and the cooks make the biggest differences. The Chuckwagon hit five stars in some aspects of both. Work on those fries and the flavor of the chili (horribly bland) and this review would have been five stars. I'm going to emphasize this again. Truly one of the best tenderloins I've had in the state! Keep doing what you are doing!

The woman's response was "we don't have a 12 piece" which we told her is what she told us our options were and her response was "no I didn't say that." Overall she had a really crappy attitude, almost like she was annoyed that she was wrong and got called out. I am giving this review more than one star only because of the gal at the second window. She was in a much better mood and kind! Her customer service was much better than the first window! The food was good, just wish the women at window one was kinder.
