Many people will pass on by or turn away from a place that isn't fancy looking, or just because of…read morehow it looks on the outside. However, the wise and folks that love to explore, will insist on experiencing what's most important--the food, service and atmosphere. Hands down, this place prepared one of the best tasting and presentable steaks I've ever had! It was seared with perfection, tender and melted in my mouth with flavorful juices. The service was amazing! Services was amazing because they were being themselves and moving with a sense of urgency. They weren't trying to put on "a show of perfection". Constant communication amongst themselves and with customers. That feeling you find in a happy, warm and family oriented place usually called home. No fancy name needed to the restaurant, or corporate owned image that chain restaurants have. Just a restaurant conjoined to a convenience store/gas station, that can easily put to shame big name restaurants. Whomever may read this review of mine, do yourself a beautiful gesture...come indulge and enjoy an epic steak, or even something else off the menu.

Sometimes, I have been known to say, "Latin food is all the same, its just a big sloppy mess."…read moreAnd that is true, typically. Throw some guac, meat, cheese, tortillas and pico de gallo together any which way and you can get a bunch of different dishes. Patio Lino's is the exception. Here you can get your standard Tex-Mex food but also you can enjoy Latin American cuisine you may never have tried before, The cook uses ingredients like plantains, and provides food I have never seen before. Also new things are added to the menu from time to time just took keep things fresh. Its not just another El Acapulco clone like most of the Mexican restaurants in the region. It is truly some place special.

I want to preface this review with I had extremely low expectations for Mexican food in Missouri…read more So keep in mind my standards for tonight's dinner were quite low because, well... it's Missouri. I also don't like leaving terrible reviews especially for local places that I want to support. However, I won't support this place after the garbage they served and the way their staff treated us as customers. The atmosphere itself is why they get 2 stars at all. It's a cool looking place, and makes you think it might be authentic when you walk in the door. My husband ordered a burrito wet with green sauce (as you can see in the pictures it's white sauce) and I ordered the chicken fajitas. As you can see it's onion, tomato & bell peppers with a few over cooked pieces of chicken in there. My husband had to ask for a side of green sauce to put on the burrito because it was only the white on there. I will say the service was ok, until we questioned what sauce was on the burrito. The server suddenly didn't speak English and couldn't understand what she was being asked . She then decided that the sauce was "cheese" and when we said this isn't cheese she decided it was "white sauce". The sauce was cold and had consistency of buttermilk, whatever it was it didn't belong on a burrito at all. It was really frustrating being played for stupid when questioning what gross "sauce" was put on a burrito. Our food came out warm at best, and the wait wasn't very long so I'm not sure how it even had time to get cold. The beans tasted like they had been watered down and the food was very bland. I don't know how anyone could even give this place 4-5 stars unless they have no taste buds or they've never eaten real Mexican food, because this place is terrible.

We stopped here for margaritas and what a great move on our part. They were delicious and so yummy…read more They really hit the spot. These weren't the watered down version, either. We ordered the medium size and they were huge. Funny they only had small and medium sized margaritas and this was probably because the mediums were huge. The food was yummy and it did not take long to get our food, either. I ordered the enchiladas suprema and they were very good. The server was sweet and spoke limited English but she understood us. Everyone in my party enjoyed their dishes and we stayed for a long time. There is easy access to this restaurant. It was easy to get to our seats and navigate the establishment. This is a very big restaurant, too. It is very long and not necessarily wide. There was a good crowd for a week day lunch crowd. Prices were reasonable and the portion sizes very good. I would highly recommend this restaurant. It is part of a localish chain and there are around 5 other restaurants in other towns nearby.

They tend to drown everything in a white cheese sauce that makes things soggy. That seems pretty normal at most of the Mexican food places in Arkansas. Being used to Tex-Mex, I don't care for it. Overall we have learned what to order and what not to, so we enjoy going there now. I just wish Stone county would get the stick out of their butts about alcohol so that you could enjoy a margarita with your meal. There's a pot head store on top of the hill but you can't buy a drink with your meal. Ridiculous.
