We had some friends bring us here, and like I have stated before "there are lots of Mexican food…read morerestaurants here!" Therefore you really gotta be on your A game if you want repeat business. Lots of other restaurants get by because there's no competition, but with Mexican it's just not the case. The service was good and attentive, the ambience very casual with a nice view of the Arkansas River if you sit near the window. But the food was just okay. Not bad but not great. What you'd typically expect from a simple Mexican food restaurant. Since moving here I think I'm over "basic Mexican food" I want something rememberable and amazing.

By far our favorite restaurant in the area. Taco Tuesday is excellent. There is great variety on…read morethe menu. Everything I have tried has been good to date, and some items are exceptional, specifically the street tacos, seafood related items, and fajitas. We love the atmosphere, the friendly staff, and sitting out on the patio when the weather is right for it. Note, this is one of the only places in this area to sit outside. It does have outside seating. I am not sure why the profile here says otherwise.

Delicious Authentic Mexican and Salvadoran Food. This is a…read moresmall, family operated restaurant. Nothing fancy on the inside or outside. Tables or comfortable booths available. Easy to find and easy access on Highway 7, in Dardanelle. Great friendly attentive service. A large variety on the menu to choose from, both Mexican and Salvadoran. The food is very good. Complementary chips and tasty salsa come with the meals. Ask for the salsa picante in the plastic squirt bottle if you need heat. I had the carne asada my wife had the simple but tasty lunch special, one beef enchilada with authentic red sauce. My carne asada was a thin tender sliced flank steak; nice flavor with a bonus, a chili toreado to make it perfect. The plate also had a little guacamole, pico de gallo and sour cream. The beans and rice on both meals very good. Check the pictures for the menu and food. Turn the menu to the Salvadoran Dishes page and try something different!

We had to try Taco Villa because it's a local favorite. I was truly hoping this was going to be…read moresimilar to Mexican Villa a place in Springfield MO "where I'm originally from" but it wasn't. In fact MV is high end compared to this place. The thing with MV is they spend lots of money on their cheese, and signature sauces. Taco Vila on the other hand doesn't have any "premium ingredients." Picture home burrito night except you water down the seasoning a bit. That seriously all this is "white people burrito night." This is also apparent by everyone who orders anything here that they also order a cheese dip that they dunk their burrito into. The cheese is simply that canned cheese you usually get with nachos at a ball park. PS they only accept cash!!! I understand this is an acquired taste, just like Springfields MV, but I personally think you'd do better making it at home. But there are lots of people here who grew up on it and love it so I respect that. Nothing really to look at, not a lot of seating. More like a fast food place you go in order and leave.
