Sometimes you can almost taste the pictures. If your favorite Mexican restaurant doesn't serve you with a plate of food that looks like the pictures I posted, you need to find a new Mexican restaurant. This food was amazing! This jewel of a Mexican restaurant is in a modest little repurposed building about a mile west of downtown Sallisaw, on Highway 64. It is easy access from I-40 to the best Mexican food between Shawnee and Ft Smith. The menu is similar to your typical OkieMex, but served up a little classier. Who doesn't love an attractive plate of food with a pyramid shaped stack of rice, bright colorful sauces and fresh flavors? Great salsas, and warm chips. Fresh like they were fried in the restaurant. The corn tortillas used in the enchiladas were of the same quality. I had the Enchiladas Habaneras. Corn tortillas stuffed with shredded chicken and covered with a delicious and unusual habanero sauce. Wow, you have to try this! Perfect refried beans. My wife had the Pork Enchiladas Verdes. Carnitas in corn tortillas covered in fresh salsa verde. Charro beans and a rice pyramid on the side. This is a clean, comfortable little small-town restaurant. The server was an exceptionally friendly young man, who wore a constant ear-to-ear smile, just like Cantinflas himself.

Not impressed with the food, just okay. Chips were served cold and were on the hard side. Chicken chimichanga meal did not come with a little salad, sour cream, and guacamole. Everything could be ordered for an extra charge, which was a bit disappointing. The shredded chicken in the chimichanga was very dry, and there was hardly any cheese sauce on top. The rice was kind of plain. The Hawaiian fajita (with chicken, beef, shrimp) was ok. The pineapple on top was straight out of a can, and they seemed to have poured the pineapple juice from the can on top it, which gave it a very bad taste). The vegetables were definitely undercooked, and none of it was browned enough. The only thing we really enjoyed was the large side of guacamole. We will not be back. Prefer other Mexican restaurants much more. Place was also lacking decorations and atmosphere. Waitress was very nice though.

Good food but lately within the last 6 months , I had one server rude and didn't feel like he wanted to be there , like he was annoyed when my friend asked him about the taco salad .. also the one in sallisaw seems to be closed a lot and seem to be more at the ten killer location .. just don't forget about the one in sallisaw because. Know a lot of people like this restaurant.

Beat Mexican food in Sallisaw. And you can't beat the service. We've never had a bad meal here.

I was working late Monday evening so decided to place an order, to go, for dinner. The waitress who…read moretook my order over the phone and took my payment was very kind, with a good attitude, and answered the phone in a timely manner. There were a few families enjoying dinner in the restaurant. The atmosphere was clean and pleasant. I ordered the fried chicken dinner with grilled mushrooms and a loaded baked potato. The chicken was a square piece of white meat chicken with no bone. It seemed more like chicken fried chicken with no gravy. I got maybe 1/4 cup of grilled mushrooms if that as seen in the photo. The photo shows my untouched meal. The loaded baked potato, which I paid an extra $2.50 for, had a little shredded cheese and bacon, nothing else. No butter, no sour cream, nothing, just a dry potato with cheese and bacon. They placed 4 packets of ketchup in the bag as well. The food was salted heavily for my taste, the grilled mushrooms more-so than the other food items. I ordered an unsweet tea with this meal and paid $21 and some change. I felt over charged and my meal didn't fit what I expected to received. I would like to add that I have had their breakfast, salads, sandwiches and burgers and they were ALL very good, no complaints, which is why I rated 3 stars. This is the second time I have attempted dinner and have been disappointed. In my opinion, this is more of a breakfast/lunch restaurant.

Exceptional service from Amber truly elevated our dining experience! The outstanding food perfectly…read morecomplemented her attentive care, making for a truly memorable evening.
