    Cute atmosphere
    Jennifer R.

    The food was decent, but the price is high (it's on the resort so no surprise), and it's definitely catered to people who love "Mexican" food, but not authentic Mexican.

    The restaurant is clean and comfortable. Service is pretty good. The food was very good. Margaritas have a lot of ice. The ease of eating on resort is ideal; for this reason I would eat here again.

    The atmosphere is very clean and definitely gets you in the mood for some Mexican food! This is our second night at Kalahari and we did the Italian blaze last night and holy cow. The servings sizes at both of these places are absolutely absurd! My husband and I can definitely put down some food, but this place had us only finishing half of what we ordered! Waitress was pretty good at first, and then she got kind of busy.. I appreciated everything on the menu. There was definitely some unique options to choose from! I will definitely come back! Probably wouldn't get the quesobirria again. I am a huge credit on those and this just did not do it for me.

    Walking past Cinco Ninos several times to the waterpark the smells lure you in! We decided to have dinner here on Sunday evening and did not leave disappointed. Service was quick and friendly. Food was good overall, although I would not recommend the taquitos. I choose them for my main meal and they were very bland and not much chicken filling. The outside was not as crispy as I prefer. My husband had the fajitas and said they were delicious and the portion size was more than generous. My daughter has the kids quesadilla with fries and she loved them. We also had the Mexican street corn appetizer which was very good, although different than were used too. This dish was incredibly cheesy; more like thick queso with corn on top. We shared a pitcher of mango margaritas which was very good. Overall it was a good meal and we'll eat here again next trip to Kalahari.

    Visited Kalahari Resort in Wisconsin Dells on New Year's day for a short holiday get away. After a half days off water slides, we made reservations at Cinco Ninos for a party of 5 at 6pm. Arrived at 6p and was immediately seated. However, the staff was a bit busy and it was 6:14p when our server finally took our order. That said he was very friendly, and took our drink and meal order. Our drinks were delivered quickly, followed by our chips and salsa. The dining area is well lit and casual. Very amenable to families with young children. Has lots of big tables for large groups. Restroom was clean and well stocked. Went thru the chips and salsa fairly quickly. Refills are $3.00. The kitchen seems slammed which is surprising as I can count at least 9 empty tables. Seems to have enough servers, but 30 minutes after ordering and still no meals or even a complimentary chips & salsa. Our waters were refilled as needed. The sodas were not. And 32 minutes after ordering, our meals arrived. Taste was great. Portion sizes were very generous. All our orders were correct. It was a good dinner, it just took a while.

    Great food and ambiance right near the water park entrance! Service was super slow for not being crowded so otherwise I recommend

    We just left here from celebrating our two year anniversary…read more Cesar Salads, 2 NY Strips(rare), Broccolini and the Garlic mash. YUM! My husband loved his steak. I should have order mine strip medium rare (instead of medium) If you need a good drink that packs a nice punch; order the Wisco Sour :) Attentive service. & Exceptional server ! Her name was Morgan

I came a second time by myself and I think that'll be the last trip for me. I went pretty early on a weeknight. They sat me in a corner at the with a family right next to me even though the room had other empty tables (they were so close they bumped into my table when they got up to leave). I eat out alone pretty frequently and don't usually mind a small space but when the restaurant is half empty, they shouldn't be seating anyone in a corner at a table so small it could barely fit the relish tray, a salad and an order of fries. I was there for girl dinner with a book and wound up listening to this family's entire meal. The food was good, and I know this is a place meant for groups and celebrations but I still won't be back.

We ordered the chili tatchos app - a MUST! So good. Our group all enjoyed their meals: burger, chicken sandwich and 2 kids meals. Plus a delicious donut shake to share - couldn't pass it up. Would definitely return!

    A Master Class in How to Lose Regular Customers…read more We've eaten here four times. Until now it was always fine -- not great, not terrible -- but usually saved by really good servers. This last visit? Not so much. Our server vanished almost immediately (except for one heroic soda refill). Meals were dropped by a runner and we were never checked on again -- despite the restaurant being nearly empty on a frigid Friday with more staff than customers, we still couldn't seem to get helped. I eventually had to go find the manager. In a place this slow, he could have easily gone table to table. He did not. My friend's chicken sandwich was inedible: gnarly, tendon-heavy, and made incorrectly after requesting almost everything removed (none of it was removed). My institutional burger and fries were a snore. They offered to remake my friend's meal to go. Out came... just a burger. No fries. No sides. Just vibes. Finding the manager on the way out and bringing up our issues: multiple disappearances, an attempted discount after she'd already paid cash, and finally a handful of dollar bills shoved into her hand with "I took care of it." He never really asked to resolve my complaints but at least I had something to eat. Final thoughts: * Food: increasingly mediocre * Service: vanished * Management: improvisational * Fries: missing in action The only reason we kept coming back was good servers. This time we had neither. We won't be returning.
