    I have passed this Mexican joint for years and finally made it here. It is located in the Centre at Smith Valley where it has a large parking lot that it shares with the other businesses in Centre. It is your typical Mexican restaurant with colorful decor. They have a large dining area and serve your typical Mexican fare that includes tacos, quesadillas, burritos, chimichangas, shrimp dishes, enchiladas and fajitas. They also have a decent selection of margaritas, if that is your thing. I ordered a Toluca Steak and I got one of their savory margaritas to wash it down. Instead of rice, I opted to go with the fries. It took about 15 minutes to get my food, but that was ok since I had some of their complimentary chips and salsa to keep me occupied. My server was nice enough, but I had limited interaction with her. My meal was pretty good. But you cant go wrong with steak and chorizio. Anyway, the steak was perfect. I highly recommend getting that meal if you make it here. This is a nice option to get you Mexican food fix. I was glad that I was able to make it here and will be back soon.

    Service was good. Atmosphere is nice. It was not busy which didn't bother us at all. It was kind of nice. Close to home. And very delicious. Tacos were great but I couldn't finish them. I took took the meat and cilantro out of the tacos and ate with avacado and lime and stil didn't finish the meal. Chips are good. A lot of places taste stale. These are good. Salsa was to spicy for me but probably ok for everyone else. Best thing everything came out hot. It was very nice. Cheese dip was one of the better I've had in the area. I recommend this place.

    We came here Saturday night for drinks, queso, and taco salads. This is definitely one of the better places in Greenwood and you totally can not beat the price of the drinks and free chips and salsa. Was a pretty cheap meal all together and we had lots of food and drink. Not the best Mexican I have ever had in my life but definitely a spot we will add into the rotation. I wish they had outdoor seating because that would make it even more awesome!

    Came in for a burrito & should've just went to Taco Bell. It was absolutely horrible.

    I stopped in for lunch and was pleasantly surprised. The food and service were good throughout the time I was there. After parking in the shared lot, I went to the hostess stand to the right as I entered and then was seated at one of the colorfully relieved booths. The colors are vibrant and almost demand that you check them out. I quickly placed my order and while I waited, began digging into the complementary chips and salsa. The bowl of chips was huge (way too much for eating by myself if I wanted to save room for lunch.) The salsa was tasty and had a hint of heat that became more noticeable as I continued, but never too spicy for me. Before long, my entree of Tacos de Asada with rice and beans arrived. The three double shelled tacos (soft corn shells about 5 to 6 inches across) arrived with diced bits of beef, onion, and topped with cilantro. There didn't appear to be any taco sauce of any kind on them, but the waitress did bring out a green sauce in a bottle. It was okay, but the sauce didn't add a lot of depth to the flavor. They tacos were definitely savory, but a little dry and especially filling with the double tortillas. I am not a hot sauce guy, but they do have a couple brands on the table if that is something you like. The beans were thinned so that they didn't clump like some places and they were topped with some melted cheese. The rice was pretty good too and had small vegetables chopped into it for additional color and flavor. I decided to not over stuff myself and decided to get a to go box. The waitress brought the check at the same time and I was quickly processed and on my way. Seemed like a nice place to try out if you are in the area. Review #2179

    The Ground Beef Tamale, Shredded Beef Burrito, and Mexican Rice Platter.

    Today for Lunch, my friends and I went to this Margarita's location. We had a very pleasant experience. I had ordered the Chimichanga Platter. One was grilled Steak, and the other was grilled Chicken. They were fresh, piping hot, filled generously, and absolutely delicious. The grilled Chimichanga was my favorite. I ordered them with Meat, Grilled Onions, and White Queso drizzled on the top. The grilled Chicken was very moist and tender. The Pastry Shell was fried perfectly; not too crunchy, nor too soggy. The Refried Beans and Mexican Rice were delicious too! My friends had ordered the Ground Beef Tamale, Shredded Beef Burrito, and Chile Relleno (Ala Cartè). They really enjoyed their food, with the same opinions that I had of my meal. Our Waitress was very punctual. She was kind and courteous as well. She made sure that our Beverages were refilled on time without us having to ask, and that our customary Tortilla Chips were freshly made. We were very pleased with everything overall. We will definitely be visiting this Restaurant again soon!

    I hate to give a poor review to a local restaurant, but there were too many negatives to ignore. First, we were ignored after being seated until I flagged down a server. No apology, no acknowledgement. Ok, we're fine, we just want to eat. But the initial impression served as a glimpse into the rest of the service that night. Slow and ignored. No refills. No asking how everything was. But if the food is amazing, maybe it doesn't matter? The guacamole was the consistency of pudding. Pudding! This is NOT the guac that is made tableside, which looks much better. They say it's freshly made in the kitchen. I have my doubts. Either way, it was weirdly soupy/runny and off-color. I also ordered fajitas and ate one. The beef was chewy and inedible. I may sound like a tough customer. I wanted to love it, I really did. But it's the worst of the worst when it comes to local Mexican strip mall joint. On a positive note, the decor inside is bright and colorful and made me smile.

    Overall, a good Mexican restaurant for the area. My husband and I stopped by here last weekend when we were in the Greenwood area. It was about 1pm on a Sunday and about half the restaurant was full--we were seated as soon as we got there. We were, of course, excited when a server brought out chips and salsa as we were starving. As soon as we dug into it, though, my husband and I looked at each other and had the same thought, "this salsa tastes odd." After about 30 seconds of munching, I figured it out and determined the salsa literally tasted like cold tomato soup. Exactly the traditional Cambell's style a typical American child would have grown up eating. I was pretty bummed since so many people had raved about the salsa here on Yelp. We were happy, though, that both of our entrees were phenomenal. My husband had some sort of cheesy chicken dish while I had the Seafood Quesadilla. It was hot and delicious. Sadly, though, the service was sub-par. Other than getting our orders and bringing our check, our waitress only came to our table once. When we did see her she appeared indifferent and a little standoff-ish. Overall, though, the entrees were good and very reasonably priced. We'd come back based on the entrées we ordered.

This bar screams "crawl inside me, throw off your coat and stay awhile". The low lighting, exposed brick, local clientele and fun menu top it all off. 2.) For my fellow smokey cocktail drinkers: I recommend the Mexican Sunrise with grapefruit juice, Mezcal and a kick off spice. Note: they also have a decent selection of bourbons and local beer on tap and by the can. 3.) I can't stop thinking about the homemade ricotta bacon jam with sliced baguette. All thoughts of eating healthy were swept aside when this dish rolled out. "Healthy who?" 4.) I'm always advocating that beets could use more representation on menus (besides in salads...). If you're a fellow beet advocate, I'd give the pickled beets with whipped goat cheese and sliced almonds a try. 5.) Order the root veggies with browned butter and chimichurri - you can thank me later. 6.) The fact that Bar Rev is tucked in the back of Revery gives it this mysterious, secret club kind of vibe. Good news is, they allow newbies from Indy access ;) 7.) As for the classic question of parking. Easy peasy. You can find it in their private lot behind the bar or across the street in the bank lot during off hours.

The cocktail actually had some heat, and the glass was rimmed with Everything Bagel Seasoning. I'd never had that before. It was a tasty touch. The candied bacon garnish was divine. We ended up ordering a second round. The Jalapeño Deviled Eggs are outstanding. Smooth and creamy, topped with jalapeño and candied bacon. Every bite was a pleasure. For entrees, I got the Bourbon Jalapeño Shrimp. It had a light kick and tasted incredible. My husband ordered the Rise & Shine Chicken Biscuit. It was all tasty, but that biscuit was fluffy and salty, exactly how a good biscuit should be. Our server made the whole meal. She was friendly and patient with me even though I was having more trouble than usual deciding what to order. She also mixed our Bloody Marys, so she was working double duty and doing it well.

She's hilarious, keeps the conversation going, and somehow makes the whole experience even better. Great bartenders have a way of turning dinner into an evening, and she's one of them. The first time we visited, I was looking for a steak sandwich on the menu, and couldn't find exactly what I was looking for. I described to the bartender that day and he suggested the lunch cheesesteak instead--and he absolutely nailed it. It was exactly what I was craving, loaded with perfectly seasoned meat and plenty of it. The burgers have always been juicy and cooked just right, too. But let's talk about the real stars of the show... the fries. Crispy, perfectly seasoned, and somehow impossible to stop eating. Every time we say, "Okay, that's enough," another fry mysteriously disappears. And if onion rings are your thing, don't skip them. The portion is enormous, and the dipping sauce is dangerously good. I'm only half joking when I say I'd happily drink it from a cup. Shallo's has that classic neighborhood pub feel where it's easy to settle in for a while. Great food, genuinely fun service, and the kind of place you'll find yourself recommending... then returning to yourself.
