    Speedy Gonzales lunch special.
    Dan J.

    The best Mexican restaurant in the area. It was excellent and the staff was very friendly and helpful. A must visit in Russel county.

    The beef in the chimichanga is tasteless, no seasoning at all and taco salad is the same way. Other than the outside dining this place is no good. The staff aren't that friendly either.

    Excellent service. Good food. Grest priced drinks. Outdoor area is one of the best. A hometown favorite.

    Not authentic food is okay; Waitress was not friendly. Ambiance was the sign, but I haven't been back.

    Hit this place after a weekend of camping at Lake Cumberland. Standard Mexicanized fare. It wasn't bad.

    This strip mall ice cream spot was open a few minutes later than advertised, but I was a bit…read moresurprised when I walked in. For one thing, they had something in the neighborhood of twenty flavors, ranging from Mexican entries like Horchata to various candy-based classics. I settled on a shake with Ferrero Rocher ice cream, a European nutty chocolate that is not all that common in the U.S. It was very nicely blended as a shake and delivered a robust flavor. I was also impressed by the fresh tropical fruits being cut to prepare for other dessert items, as well as a wide selection of popsicles. I would note that they did add a small surcharge for paying by card, so you might consider cash, but I would definitely consider coming as this dessert place had a lot to offer.

    This place really is 5 stars. My ding of a star is on cleanliness of the dining area. Our table was…read morevery sticky but was only table in there. Now the ice cream is great. It tastes like the title of it. We had the banana and it tasted like bananas. The prices are fair and cheaper than others around. My wife is already finding reasons to go back. The 40 min drive is long but I have a feeling might be heading back again soon. One thing I would like to see and this is the same all over is there were no sugar free options. That would take this place to a superior level for sure. But I struggle to find another in Kentucky with food as good as here.

I have never in my life experienced such blatant rudeness towards customers as I did today. He gave us a tasting of ice cream and when we didn't put the used spoon where it belonged, he LITERALLY picked up the small container with 4 tasting spoons in it and threw it across the room at the opposite wall. Evidentially he keeps the unused spoons out where customers can mix their dirty spoons with them ... smart... He gave my husband such a look of disgust that it was actually scary. This was done with a "restaurant" full of customers who probably thought we did something awful. Here's an idea Joe, don't put the container of clean spoons where customers can access them ... or better yet, label the containers so you know what goes where... or here's an idea, don't treat customers with the disgust you did today. Was the waste of those 4 small tasting spoons worth the display of rudeness and unprofessionalism that you displayed? What's this we always hear about southern hospitality... not at Lil Joe's. We walked out and will never go back.

They have a great concept, the place is Immersed with the charm of a historic building,. It provides many local artisan gifts, as well as unique experience for the downtown Somerset area. The place provides a comforting down home atmosphere that is realizing and welcoming. They feature iice cream floats made in-house, meticulously crafted for a wide variety of taste. I would recemmend the Moose on the Loose, and the Mr Bluebird shake, it a amazing use of blueberries, as it sure to please the blueberry lover. It takes time for a place to get in the flow of things and while there were minor inconsistencies missing but for the most point the serves were on point, and hopfully will only improve in the future. They are off to a good start, hopfully they will continue on a successful path, if you are in Downtown this place is worth a look,.
