Ordered takeout. Huge fan of Mexican. When carnitas are…read moreon the menu, it is my go to order. I was hugely disappointed to find the Carnitas were made with pork loin instead of shoulder. They were dry and flavorless. It was hunks of slow cooked pork they put on a flatop to brown. The garnish for the dish was quite terrible. The tomatoes tasted like them were canned. I also had the Pelancho's dip. Other than the vessel used to serve it, Ihqve nothing to say but "yum" This was DELICIOUS. Churro cake for dessert was sad. Flavor was good, texture was not. It was reheated and got both hard to cut & chewy. Flavor was decent. I do wish all restaurants who serve ice cream with dessert would package the ice cream in a styrofoam cup. Shawna was fantastic. She helped me when I arrived, made menu suggestions, made sure all my items were correct, and placed extra napkins & utensils in my bag. She was extremely friendly. Clear she enjoys her work. Unfortunately, due to the quality of my main course, I won't have a meal from Pelancho's again. I will grab a snack of the Pelancho's Dip regularly

We came back ... of course we did!!…read more Our Red Bird Mission Team was back in Kentucky in early July and we kept talking about Mexican night. We had a couple of new comers in our group who noticed the pure joy in our voices as we talked about El Mariachi's food especially the Chicken Soup! Once again an absolute five star experience beginning with top notch service (I know a few of our group are picky when they eat out and quick to complain but they loved the service here!)! The dining area is attractive and fun plus spotlessly clean! Chips and a really good salsa were delivered immediately! I asked for some salsa verde and that was even better. Our group ordered a wide variety of menu items ... one guy ordered the incredibly large sampler platter. I went for the tamale, burrito and chicken soup! Ahhh all you need is the chicken soup (I actually went home to NJ determined to do my best to hack the soup it's sooo good and we live 10 hours away from El Mariachi's so it's hard to just stop by )! Once again it was a soup prepared by the angels!! We were all in agreement... incredibly delicious food, large portions and amazing prices. oh I almost forgot the needed margaritas!! We had had a hard day at work and we're thrilled with the huge drinks perfectly mixed and very inexpensive!! I am hoping we are going back to this mission next year ... if not I just might have to drive 10 hours for dinner at El Mariachi ... it's that good ... toss out the negative reviews ... these folks know what they are doing!!

Mixed review. Skip…read morethe guac and sour cream. Do order anything with the shredded chicken. Service is wonderful. Very attentive. Atmosphere. There is a very persistent cleaner smell. If you are sensitive to cleaner smells, it will interfere with your eating experience. So the great. Enchilada sauce is subtle and perfect. Best I've had in a while. Best chips in the area. Solid salsa- lil' kick and smooth. The shredded chicken is juicy, well seasoned and has been shredded with care. Haven't had a bad bite yet. The guacamole is some kind of slush that has the consistency of mushed peas. So watered down with something else, it ceases to taste anything like avocados. Same problem with the sour cream. It's either the quality or it's been cut with something to make it thinner. There is no tang that sour cream should have. All other sides so far, tomatoes, lettuce, beans and rice have been of the best quality. Best Mexican I have had in KY and TN so far. (40 mile area, tried 5 other establishments.)

I ordered a chicken taco salad, and it came out very soupy. When it was remade, the chicken was…read moreslimy, and I could barely eat it. The waitress seemed annoyed when it was sent back, which made the experience uncomfortable. My boyfriend's chicken fajita quesadilla looked good and tasted fine at first, and our son's nuggets and fries were okay. Service was fast but not friendly, and the pricing felt high for what we received ($43.96 plus tip for simple meals). Most concerning, both my boyfriend and I ended up with food poisoning afterward, while our son did not. We won't be returning.

I had the #1, fish, hush puppies, 1 side (slaw) and drink for about $10. Fish was excellent. Two nice pieces of cod (?). It was 30 minutes before I was able to eat it and it was still crispy. Hush puppies are always good. Slaw was slightly sweet and tasty. Will definitely start looking for others.

Imagine this: you get your food and you're already pissed bc they didn't give you anything right. Then you eat it begrudgingly because you know... everyone has off days right? Well guess again buddy boy. HAIRS EVERYWHERE!! I feel for whoever cooked this, idk if they're balding or have a bad hair dye or what. I didn't know it was possible to lose this many hairs in the span of the minute it took them to throw the stuff together and send it on it's way. Go anywhere else. Please.

If you told me they have a bunch of senior citizens with dementia behind the counter then I would believe you. Once again I would like to reiterate that Wendy's is horrible at keeping orders straight. If I had a dollar for every time Wendy's got a order wrong I would have more Money than the cashier could count because the it takes the cashier 20 minutes to found 10 dollars ( I paid in 5s) Also they had a hepatitis outbreak in 2020 because everyone that works there is so filthy.

If your vehicle is high, the window is low. Ordered a chicken sandwich and mash. Pulled up front to wait. According to the nice woman that took my order, the first person sent to me gave up looking for my truck, do to me parking on row out from the front. I keep back up utensils, so forgetting it include a spoon with mash wasn't the biggest deal. Hot sandwich. Everything was just ok.
