Outstanding fish fajitas! Great fresh tasting margaritas!! Great salsa. Excellent service. 1st time customer and will definitely be back.

We ordered takeout tonight, like we have done several times. When I arrived and asked for my order, it was wrong. It only had one meal. My wife's order was missing. They said they would get it. Ten minutes later, they brought her order out. Mine was cold by then. I told them I wanted two hot meals, not just one. They guy at the register absolutely refused, refused, to give me two hot meals. He insisted that my order was hot. Let me be very clear with this. I am not a person that likes hot food. I prefer food that is warm instead of hot. This order was COLD. I asked to speak to a manager and was told a manager was not available. read more

Mediocre food at best...salsa is good. The cashier acted like he didn't know how to use our coupon so we had to pay full price but he promised we could use it the next time. There won't be a next time. I would not recommend this establishment at all. We sat at the table 15 minutes before they even took our order. So many good Mexican places to eat that's so much better.

Food was ok and came out fast and hot. When I was eating my burrito I ended up finding a long hair that was embedded into the food. I almost vomited and had to walk out. My wife told the staff , 2 people and they offered no condolences for anything! read more

It is more expensive then most Mexican food but it is by far the best. Do yourself a favor and get the beef nachos for an appetizer.

First visit and last visit. How does a Mexican restaurant serve blah rice and beans. The burrito chicken was overlooked and again blah. We wanted a side of guacamole but they don't offer just appetizer which we decided to do and wait for it.. blah too. Overall a shame has place has lots of tvs but lacks good food. Restrooms were bad too which was just icing on this bad cake . read more

Food is always good and hot. Service is very friendly and helpful and fast. All of the employees are nice.

First and foremost, they have dollar domestic draft beer. OK, now that we have that covered.... The Yellow Cactus has everything you can ask for: great food, drinks, salsa, TVs, full bar, location, prices, and a staff that is out of this world. Every time I go I find something else I love. The food never gets old because they have a really big menu with a lot of variety. It is a big place with plenty of tables; so there is rarely a wait, even during busy times. They have a loyal following of regulars that you can find just about every night of the week. One trip to The Yellow Cactus and you'll know why. read more

Love this place! I would travel any distance to eat here...in my opinion. Great service! Great food! Truly 4.5 out of 5 times it's AWESOME! Patrick read more

They make the best margaritas and I leave there full and buzzed the salsa is good and queso is good. Environment is fun and always makes for a good time. Definitely recommend getting top shelf gold margarita pitcher on the rocks read more

The best Mexican​ place in the area. Excellent service, hot food, ​and tasty salsa. The mild is very plain so we always mix it with the hot and it's perfect. They have the best tacos anywhere. The enchiladas verde are great and excellent chimichangas. They have flautas!! You can't get flautas anywhere around here at all. The tamales are authentic as well. The poor reviews always make me mad because these guys are great. Go on down the road to El Nopal if you want mediocre food and so-so service. For me,​ they are just El Nope. read more

We love this restaurant and eat there about three times a month, partially because it's so close, but really it's because they have a few items that are truly delicious. Carne Asada Tacos, Fish Tacos, and Tortilla Soup are some items worth checking out. The chicken wings are surprisingly good too, but the hot sauce is served on the side. I usually leave extremely full because I fill up on chips and salsa (which is great), but I suppose that's better than leaving hungry. The staff is really friendly too. Don't be afraid to practice some Spanish with them if you're up for it. read more

I absolutely love this place. It's menu is very similar (if not the same) as El Nopal, but for some reason it seems like the food tastes better. The service is always 5 star, and the staff are super friendly and make you feel welcome. read more

I've been coming here since it opened when I was in high school. Never once have I had a bad experience. I only go in a couple of times a year, but the servers always remember me from when they opened. Best Salsa read more

This is my favorite Mexican restaurant. I've actually become a snob when it comes to other mexican restaurants. I always compare them to the yellow cactus and in my opinion they don't quite measure up. The staff is very friendly and most of them know us and chat with us when we come in. The cactus special is probably my most favorite entree. I always ask for extra onions, green peppers, and queso on it. It's always delicious. The queso and salsa is also super delicious. They make the best mechalatas too if you like those. read more

Best Mexican food in Southern IN! Best chips and salsa anywhere! Cactus Special with beef and Enchiladas, can't go wrong!!! Love this place! read more

Nice local Mexican restaurant. We probably go here about 4-6 times a year since moving here 3 years ago. Service was good. Food was very good. It is very convenient to our home. Salsa was good. Chips were fresh. Portions of food were huge. I had the choro pollo and leftover for lunch the next day. Prices are comparable to other similar style restaurants. Will go back again. read more

The food is decent but it's not worth the hassle. Hands down the worst service I've ever experienced. We tried it a few times to see if it was just an off night but it wasn't. Weeknight, weekday, busy or dead; the service is horrific no matter what. The waitstaff disappears for 20 minutes at a time. It took 25 minutes to get our check last time. Tonight we waited 20 minutes after getting our drinks to place an order but the server never came back. I asked the hostess for a manager and she laughed. She then brought our inept server to the table and said he was the manager with a disgusting smirk. If you want to try this place I would recommend getting it to go...especially if you have kids. Needless to say, we won't be back. read more

I LOVE THIS PLACE! You must try it. The salsa and fajitas are out of this world! And if you are in a hurry they are super fast!

This is our Monday night spot: with $.98 margaritas and great food; helpful staff; kid friendly atmosphere with free Popsicles included with every kids meal; it's our favorite family restaurant. read more

I have eaten here twice. The first time I ate the food, it was carry out. I swore I would never eat here again. I didn't like it at all. However, last weekend we decided to get out and my fiancé suggested we go here and try again. I was hesitant but said ok. I must admit, I was pleasantly surprised. It's way better when you go in and eat than carry out. Our waiter was great, it had a great atmosphere, my 2 1/2 year old son was accepted like anyone else and loved it there too. I would definitely eat here again. read more

I have been to this place a few times for their cactus special and its one of my favorites. Its the only thing I have gotten so I cant speak of most of their food. I love their hot salsa which I think is the perfect amount of spicy which is usually a key point of a Mexican place for me lol. I have only carried out from here but the employees have always been very nice. Glad to have it so close to home! read more

I've eaten here on four different occasions, hoping it would be better, but it never really did. So at least it's consistent. The food is very bland, but it's best to keep to simple items. Get a taco or something. Burritos or anything that involve a small amount of planning to prepare tend to be a mess. As I said, edible but bland. The worst part is the service. Don't expect to be checked on, get refills, etc. DO expect to have approximately 5 (on average) employees standing near your table, having out and talking. It's one thing to never get service, but even wore when people hang out in the main part of the restaurant socializing when you need something. At least hang out in the back so I don't feel so bad about not getting waited on. read more

My wife and I stopped for a late lunch. Hotter salsa was very good (and not that hot). We got the lunch chicken fajitas, enough for two, and really good. Service was good. Bill was just over $10, less expensive than fast food. Will definitely be back. read more

First time here, a coworker highly recommended it. I had the combo with beef enchilada and chile relleno. The enchilada was spicier than some authentic Mexican places, which is fine with me, I like a lot of spice. I definitely will be back to try something else. They have a few things on the menu that I haven't seen before. The servers were friendly and the food came out quickly, which is good, I didn't get filled up on chips and salsa. Looking forward to next time. read more

My family loves this place. We eat here two or three times a month. The quesadilla is where it's at. I love their queso and salsa. The staff is friendly. Great place to go with groups. I recently discovered, to my surprise, their wings are also VERY good. I love Yellow Cactus! read more

Love the burrito carne asada! When you carry out they give you lots more queso than when you dine in. Love the hot salsa! My son is picky but loves their burger & fries. Dining in is great too, love the drinks & specials. Big thumbs up from us! read more

If I could, I would eat here everyday! The food is absolutely amazing. Their hot salsa is the best I've ever had in a restaurant. I have yet to try something I didn't enjoy. The portions are huge and it is always fresh down to the slice of tomato. The service is always outstanding. The servers are attentive and friendly. The place is clean and very inviting. The management is always around helping out and keeping things moving. I highly recommend this place to anyone wanting a fun outing with family, friends or just by yourself. read more

Excellent and consistent. I've gone frequently since they opened. Love it!!! The salsa is incredible. Always great service.

Seated right away. Prompt service. Good food (I had the fajitas). Easy peasy. Downside for me were the 12 TV's/Sports bar atmosphere. Other than that, everything was great. read more

I have been here several times and each time the food was hot, fresh, and serves quickly. Employees are all very friendly. Will definitely return! Kim Cash - owner of Perfect DeZigns https://www.facebook.com/perfectdezigns/ read more

We love the yellow cactus! We have always had great service and wonderful food. If you leave there without sampling the fried bananas you'll hate yourself later!! read more

The food was fantastic. The service was, well, bizarre. Our waiter could not have been more disinterested in providing any type of customer service. For example, he didn't greet us, but came to the table and asked if we were ready to order. When he delivered our margaritas, he placed them together on the edge of the table and walked away. Same with our food. Never asked if we needed anything, never came back to check on us. Had to flag him down for a new margarita after finding lipstick all around the rim of mine. Again, he came back with another and set it at the edge of the table and left. Had to wave down a waitress (not ours) to bring our bill after we sat there finished with our food and with empty margarita glasses in front of us. The food was delicious, but we won't be back because the experience as a whole was quite a letdown. read more

I've never been disappointed, but then I always get the same thing... Cactus Special with chicken. It's delicious! Their queso is really good. I haven't had the best experience with dine-in, but never had a problem with carry-out. It's always done by the time we drive up Paoli Pike, 10-15 minutes tops. I'd recommend it. It is decent Mexican food, no better no worse than El Nopal or Los Aztecas in my opinion. read more

Three out of four of us ordered a chimichanga. Definition of Chimichanga Spanish: a deep-fried burrito that is popular in Tex-Mex, Southwestern U.S. cuisine. Every other chimichanga that I have ever had had been deep fried. These were not. It was nothing more than a burrito. The waiter, another server and the manager insisted that they were. They may have been stuck in a frying pan but they were definitely not deep fried. read more

Such a great place! Friendly staff, great food, reasonable prices (lunches are the best bargain I've ever found), Popsicles with the kids meals.... It's a comfortable place with sports on TV -- it's like eating at home only with better cooking and no dishes. What's not to love? read more

This is the best place in the world for Magarita Monday! We are there regularly with a large group and spend hours sitting, talking, eating and drinking. What a great atmosphere. Not to mention the prices and service are unbeatable! read more

This is my favorite place to get Mexican food in the area! Everything I've had there is wonderful, especially their rice, queso, and salsa.

Watch your bill at the cash register, it was $34.14 and tell cashier checked out $38.14 plus I left a tip...there is no way to prove it because they keep ticket and give you recipient from credit card machine. food was okay but not great tonight. We have been regulars for years but has gone down. Won't be Going Back read more
