    Mexican style tacos
    Zac S.

    Came in with pretty low expectations (being from Texas where the real tacos are at) but was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the tacos. Good meat quality, the taste of the pico on the tacos pulled the flavor of the tacos together well. There were a couple of disappointments. I ordered the chips and salsa, the number of chips in the basket could've been counted on my fingers and the salsa is very watery. The flavor was decent on the salsa and spice was nice but the liquidity of it was rough. It was as if they put their pico in water and served it. Another complaint was there was an added cost to add onions to the tacos. While it was only a quarter, still seemed unnecessary. I also would've liked some limes and sauce with my tacos. The only sauce I saw offered was packets of taco sauce one might get from Jack in the Box. I am willing to go again because of the flavor of the meat and tacos. I may even try something new!

    Tasty, cut-rate Mexican food joint. Self-service and sparse facilities. Great for lunch. The Nachos or Taquitos alone are worth the trip.

    Great food food and the staff was friendly. They had great options for kids meals too. I'll be heading back next time I'm in town.

I might ever eat liver if it was covered in that green sauce...well, maybe not! I think between my husband and son they have ordered at least half of the menu and have not found one thing that they did not rave about. The small establishment is inviting and the service is wonderful! You absolutely can't go wrong with Mexican Grill. The family will make you anything you want and anyway you want it.

They feature some unique items on their menu, and everything I have ever tried has been delicious. My favorite is the veggie quesadilla, it is very different than the average quesadilla that is served at other Mexican restaurants. I always order the platter that comes with rice and beans, because both are excellent. The red sauce has heat but is very flavorful. I always order extra red sauce to take home. If you don't care for hot sauces but enjoy flavor you can mix a little sour cream into the red sauce to make it milder. Service is always friendly and helpful. Tortas Johann is the best reason to visit Kokomo!

    3-3.5 out of 5 from me but I'll tell you what pushed this review to 4 for me…read more My future mother-in-law and I went here today to grab some dinner for the four of us (her husband and my fiancé and I. We usually go to Dos Molinos when I'm in town so I was curious to try a different Mexican place. I tried calling them twice to ask a question about their taco menu but I got a busy tone. My FFIL got through and was able to place an order for takeout. I had a chicken quesadilla, which was large but just okay; a steak taco, which was HUGE and tasty but I wouldn't say traditional (it had cheese and no cilantro); and an Al Pastor taco which I haven't tried yet, because I was full. The rest of our party ordered Camarones a la Diabla (spicy shrimp) and fajitas, and everyone enjoyed them. The reason they get 4 stars from me is they included like two to three BAGS of tortilla chips and like six small portions of salsa for free, even though some of the salsa accidentally opened in the takeout bag. That's beyond generous. I will say we did order guacamole too and it was a teeny portion, but we had all the chips to go with it. My FMIL also said they seem to give larger portions with takeout vs in-restaurant, FYI. Overall I'd order from here again but Dos Molinos has more authentic tacos IMO. However, prices were good; entrees were about $12, my quesadilla was $5.50, and the a la carte tacos range from $1.99-$2.99 each.

I'm a travel nurse that has been to a lot of new restaurants in the last year and a half and nobody else has done that.

My husband got it a chicken quesadilla. He says it's very good. It's chock full of onions so I haven't tried it LOL We sat in the bar the music wasn't too loud and they were TVs if you're interested in that.

    I never rate places but I had to with this. This is some of the worst Mexican food I've ever had…read more My friends quesadilla looked like it had store bought shredded cheese sprinkled on an uncooked microwaved tortilla. My rice and chicken was tasteless. The only thing that had flavor was the green onion. The rice was undercooked and dry. Even the salsa tastes worse than store bought salsa. It was basically just watered down tomatoes. Would never eat here again. I had 3 bites, left hungry, and threw out my leftovers. Even had my husband try it before throwing it out and he spit it out. Also: I just saw the passive aggressive reply. It's not about your concept. I'm aware it's Americanized. That's pretty obvious. The point it's the food was nearly inedible. And clearly the service isn't all that great either. I understand how food works! Maybe you guys need to understand it too. Judging by your other reviews. Seems like other people feel the same way..
