    3 enchiladas
    Eric F.

    I wish I could give half stars, I'd give 2.5 because this place was just meh. I got snowed in and had to eat here 2 days in a row. Let me start with the good: They start you off with not just salsa, but also bean dip - kind of a bonus. The server both days was awesome. The food portions are large. That's about where it ends. The not great: I order 3 enchiladas the first day and it was just ok. Nothing about it made me want it again, but it wasn't bad. My second day, I ordered an appetizer and it came after my meal was delivered and quite possibly only because I asked about it- additionally it was burnt from either being forgotten or the oil was too hot. I ordered chilaquiles (hard to find and one of my favorites). I asked to have chicken added and was charged $10 for the chicken. That's almost the cost of the entire entree- so I paid almost double to get some chicken with it (found out only when I got the check). The chilaquiles typically have egg (scrambled). This version had 2 over medium eggs placed over the top. I don't like eggs and forgot to asked not to have it, so this made it easier to remove. I only mention it because if you're like me and expected it to be similar to what you may have gotten elsewhere, heads up. The bar area has a TouchTunes music jukebox. Don't bother paying to play it - I did. They have their external Spanish music blasting over anything you've paid for. It was like listening to 2 radio stations at the same time. I probably could have asked them to turn theirs off, but it's impossible to not notice I shouldn't have had to. The portions and service are the best thing about this place. I most likely won't be back, but maybe you'll find a menu item you like and have a better experience.

    Just a couple minutes from the I-25 exit in Wheatland, Guadalajara was the Google Maps recommendation for Mexican food on the way to Casper. The food was unfortunately pretty bland despite looking very cheesy. Prices seemed fair until we tried the food, but at least service was quick and more or less friendly. The beef burrito lacked flavor, while the chicken tacos were downright bad. The several hot sauce options helped a little, but not enough to elevate the food far beyond edibility. Even if we found ourselves in this area again, we would probably choose Taco Bell over a repeat visit to Guadalajara.

    Carne Asada lunch with tortillas on the side.  Excellent!!!  Grilled jalapeño happened to be a 10/10 hot. Lucky me.

    If you are familiar with the Guadalajara/Tres Margaritas franchise then you'll even know the menu. Located Right next to the interstate, but not right next to an exit, this is one of two places I'd recommend if having lunch or dinner in Wheatland. I've been here 6/7 times over the last twenty years and have yet to have anything but a great meal and friendly service. The menu is the same as Fort Collins, Cheyenne, Casper, and Sheridan. The salsa has the same flavor as Casper, but has bigger chunks of onion and cilantro vs. Casper that I found delicious. Sadly they stayed with the very plain refried beans vs. the cheesy ones Casper has with the chips. Service was small town slow which I didn't necessarily appreciate on this visit as an interstate traveler passing though, but it all worked out ok. I've had a little of everything here over my visits, but choose to go with the Carne Asada lunch today so I had a high energy/low grease and cheese dish. It hit the spot. Perfectly cooked medium skirt steak with a couple of charred green onions, a small side of pico de Gallo, rice(dry), beans(very plain and over cheesed), and a grilled jalapeño. Also came with your choice of flour or corn tortillas. Was Excited for the jalapeño as they don't come on the same Casper dish, but dang, as a guy who likes habanero tacos I felt like a fool after taking a big bite into the end of that pepper. It made my entire scalp sweat and my hair as well. Tamales, tacos, enchiladas, as well as the crispy chili relleno's have always been good here as well. Can't speak to their bar drinks as always driving through, and always the driver so haven't had the chance to indulge. Overall the restaurant is clean, no where near modern, but with a rustic charm. A good place to have a meal and skip the 5 fast good places in town.

    Tacos: lengua (tongue), rice and beans. Delicious !!!

    We got off the highway and looked for somewhere to eat. We went a bit further and found this gem of a place. The best Mexican food and the greatest staff. So happy we stopped off here. Wish this place was in our home town of indiana. Great eats!!!

    Appetizers and soups.

    I must have had an off day at this place. Walking in there was no host(ess) to seat us right away. Not a big deal though. We sat down soon after at a booth and gave our drink orders while welcomed with chips, salsa, and a warm bean dip (essentially refried beans in a bowl). Salsa is very tomato based with little to no chili to make it hot. Think extra mild. The chips kept us occupied while we scanned the very large menu and waited about 10 minutes for water and our drinks. Staff was very friendly though. After finally ordering, we both got the same dish, burrito loco. Another 10 minutes later our waiter asked my coworker what he had ordered, because something messed up. We both looked at him and were like the same thing as me. A burrito loco with chicken. About an hour after arriving we finally got our food. We noticed a lot of people not getting food right away so at least we were not the only ones. I think our waiter was definitely on something. He seemed slow to respond and very forgetful. Holding a conversation for saying a simple statement seemed difficult. Food was adequate. Was hot and had some flavor. Atmosphere was nice, but I think I'll go back and try the other small Mexican joint in Wheatland.

    Happy happy customer

    Absolutely amazing Mexican food and super friendly staff! I'm an over the road truck driver and this place is in the top three in the country. Do your tastebuds a favor and get the flavor! Southern taste and hospitality up north! Plenty of parking for big rigs and rv's.

    Fajita burrito and a big cup of coffee!!!(mmmmmmmmmmm!)
    Scott P.

    I was driving down I-25, looking for a place to eat. I jumped on Yelp and saw that someone reviewed this place and said it was a "diamond in the rough". And boy was he right! I got this big old cup of coffee and the great big burrito!! Definitely be back try something different. Like that loco burrito, it looked really good...

    Chipotle enchilada and enchilada trio
    Chad C.

    Service was adequate. The food was solid, nothing spectacular but definitely a good place to stop for a good dinner. Wide selection on the menu, everyone should be able to find something. The enchiladas come a little dry, so I would recommend asking for extra sauce. Overall it was a solid meal, clean restaurant, and friendly staff.

    One of my favorite places to eat at! The people are extremely friendly food is wonderful.read more

    We finally caught this place during the rare phenomenon known as "open hours" and figured we'd live…read moredangerously and try it. If you're a fan of food that tastes like it's practicing social distancing from seasoning, congratulations--you've found your soulmate. We walked in and were told to seat ourselves, which felt a little like being released into a corn maze. The restaurant is chopped into secret rooms you can't see from the entrance, so after poking my head around like a confused meerkat, we gave up and parked ourselves by the front door. It was busy, though I suspect that's due to long-standing loyalty and not a sudden outbreak of taste buds. The waiter greeted us with, "Do you need menus?" No sir, we brought our own crystal ball. Yes, we need menus--we've never been here. The options included tacos, burritos, tostadas, and--mysteriously--a deep-fried hotdog, which felt like it wandered in from a county fair and refused to leave. We ordered the pork chili smothered burritos. When mine arrived, I finished it in under eight bites--new personal record. For $6 I expected a burrito, not a participation trophy. They've clearly built a devoted following of people who enjoy food on mute, so they probably won't notice us slipping away. We wish them well--and if you enjoy culinary adventures in the land of bland, this might be your happy place.
