Muy caliente, but not at all overly caliente - plenty of surprising taste variety.

It's a pity (or a blessing) that so few gringos seem to know it exists. Indeed, even the few who have seen it seem ignorant that it has a lunch counter inside. And yet fewer know that it's any good. But after loving it since I first got here, and after hearing the constant ravings of students and friends alike about Tacos el Jarocho (a decent, Mexican hole-in-the-wall on Market Street), I had no choice but to round up two friends and conduct a taste test . Results were uniformly in favor of Voluntad de Dios. From the texture of the beef to the tastiness of the chorizo -- even the beauty of the presentation or the plumpness of the lime -- Voluntad won hands down. And though the taco de rez at Jarocho held it's own, the chorizo was hard, tasteless and truly reminiscent of cardboard. All three of us preferred all three tacos from Voluntad. Sure, Tacos el Jarocho deserves some credit for its proximity to Wabash and for making a stab at authentic Mexican street food in the heart of Crawfordsville. But if you want a Hoosier taco from a place that would hold its own in Chula Vista, Voluntad de Dios is the will of G-d.

I am very pleased to report that this establishment could hold its own with any of the fine taco…read moreestablishments in Southern California. Let me compare it with Taco Mesa, a restaurant similar in style and price point (and highly rated among yelpers) in Southern California. Quality--neck and neck. I've tried the pork, chicken, and steak in both places and I would say that Botanica beats Mesa in the steak category, in terms of juiciness and flavor. It's too close to call for the pork, with Mesa having a slight (very slight) edge over Botanica. Chicken-wise, both are comparable. Botanica puts its tacos on two tortillas (instead of one) and also offers plenty of fresh lime, onions, cilantro, and salsas (medium and hot). Price--both offer great tacos at around $2 apiece. Mesa has seafood tacos that run in the $4 range, plus a wider selection. But for what it does offer, Botanica gives a strong showing with quality menu items at great prices. Atmosphere--different settings. Botanica is a lunch counter in a small Mexican grocery, which gives it a cool, hidden feeling. Most people in town hadn't heard of this place, till my esteemed colleague Ethan H. tipped us off to it. Now it's a regular spot for many of us, and it's the main place I take people to for a quick and delicious lunch. There are only about 4 stools at the counter, and you're right next to the laundry detergent, but I don't mind, especially since you're also next to the fridge with a plentiful selection of drinks. All on all, I highly recommend Botanica. Great place for a good lunch, and you can do your grocery shopping on the same trip. Be sure to stock up on dry cinnamon sticks while you're there.

Last time I had the Barnyard (a delicious chicken sandwich) and the Quesadilla appetizer--both were excellent. Their cheeseburgers are also top-notch. Prices are very reasonable, portions are generous, and the service is consistently great. The staff is friendly, quick, and accommodating--they even love our dogs!

Wow what a find!! Thanks YELP!…read more Went here for a business dinner on a Wednesday night. Only a few tables occupied. So the place was not noisy at all. Also no blaring music in the background which I really liked. We were waited on by Sarah. Just an awesome individual. So friendly and attentive. Also cute as a button as the old folks say. :-) She guided us through the menu and also made a few suggestions which we went with. We started with an app - cheese curds served with a sriracha dipping sauce. There is no way I was in Indiana. :-). The cheese curds were legit! They have a solid drink menu. We got the bare knuckles porter and an espresso martini. The martini was fantastic. No actual espresso so no caffeine. Not bad! My main was a BYO Burger. A top 10 burger for me. Smashed style and cooked perfectly with the lacy, crusty edges. I got the following - cheddar, bacon, grilled onions, grilled mushrooms, fried egg, jalapeños and fried egg. Absolute money! For a side I got the truffle fries ($5 up charge) but well worth it! So damn good. This place is a gem and HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. I hope to be back to the area to try it again.

I don't usually leave negative reviews, but this experience really missed the mark…read more We went in with a group and were shocked when the bill came. The restaurant automatically added a 20% gratuity--but never mentioned it upfront or when handing us the check. Because of that, we unknowingly added an additional tip, which made the total way higher than expected. When we questioned it, the waitress couldn't clearly explain the charges or provide a proper breakdown of the receipt. Instead of helping, she became defensive and came off as rude, which only made the situation worse. I have no issue with automatic gratuity for larger parties, but not being transparent about it feels misleading. A simple heads-up would have avoided all of this. Between the lack of communication and poor service when we asked about it, the whole experience left a bad taste. Double-check your bill if you go here.
