    The complementary chips and salsa were so good.
    Michael S.

    Go just for the complementary chips and salsa! Really, they're that good. We were in a small group for dinner. Mi Lupita servers were on top of things throughout the meal. No fewer than three employees stopped by at different times to confirm our needs were met. Dishes came out correctly and there were no complaints about any entree. My taco salad had an abundance of shredded chicken that i would have preferred had more seasoning. But that was my preference. Another diner might have found it just right.

    Spicy margarita

    Outstanding! I had not been here in several years and Mi Lupita is my now favorite Mexican restaurant in west county. The fresh squeezed margarita was fantastic. The spicy margarita was one of the best. Fresh food was a delicious change compared to other competitive restaurants. I highly recommend the margaritas as an appetizer and to pair with the main course. This is a five star gem. Will be back.

    I ordered the beef fajitas. The beef needed more seasoning like garlic powder, onion powder and lime juice. Most of the meat was tender. I had a very friendly young man as my server who did a great job. This is a cozy restaurant at Manchester and New Ballwin. There's plenty of parking in the lot in front of the restaurant.

    Cali Burrito with steak and side order of beans and rice.

    Mi Lupita was next on our list to try in the STL area. Located in a shopping center in Ballwin, MO it's one of the few Mexican restaurants in the area. Traditional decor as you expect and plenty of seating for both small or large groups. Menu was very diverse and all the dishes you expect to see. Wife went with the chicken enchiladas with verde salsa, and was a huge portion. I went with the Cali Burrito, a loaded burrito with steak and covered with queso sauce. Both dishes were delicious and seasoned appropriately. Didn't try the margaritas this time as we had errands to run, but from observing other groups they are very popular here. Overall good experience and reasonably priced. Service was great and checked on us frequently.

    Great Mexican/TexMex food. We have gone there for many years and it is still run by the family. It is our go-to place for Mexican.

    Malinche is a hidden gem in West St. Louis County!…read more Stepping through the door, you'd think you've transported to a trendy city with bustling nightlife. The low lighting, neon signs, and colorful interior design create a vibrant and upscale dining environment. Their drinks are all served in fun glassware and mixed with intention. Choose from an array of classics like Margarita, Mojito, and Paloma; or try one of their original crafted cocktails. The service is always friendly and professional. Their servers are prepared to answer any questions you have. I've never had food like I've enjoyed at Malinche! Every menu item has so much traditional flavor with a modern spin. Not only is the food delicious but it is plated with culinary vision like art on a plate. Menu items are designed to be shared which we love we can try multiple things. Monday and Tuesday are the only days of the week they serve tacos but you will not be disappointed by their other menu items! The name choice Malinche pays homage to a historically significant and often misunderstood female figure in Mexican history who after being sold in slavery to the Spaniards acted as a key translator and advisor during the Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire. By naming the restaurant Malinche, it is the family's ode to their mother and head chef Doña María Gutiérrez Molina. Once your dining experience is over and you step back outside, you'll have forgotten you were eating in Ellisville and not Mexico City!

    The food and service was really good. Must try! Was just visiting the area but will be going back…read moreat my next visit.

Recently, we learned about the new menu items at the Town and Country location. Now along with the exciting news that Session Taco is now closing on Mondays to give your teams a well-deserved day to rest and recharge. That kind of investment in your people says a lot about your values and we believe it shows in the guest experience. We visited Session this week and Daniel at your Town and Country location is remarkable! He not only provided excellent service, but was also an outstanding ambassador for Session Taco and the enhancements that have been made. From Daniel's warm positivity to the improved quality of the food, reminded us why we loved coming there in the first place. Thank you for listening to guest feedback, making thoughtful changes, and creating a culture that supports both your team and your customers. What we experienced this week was exactly what we enjoy about Missio......Session Taco. Lol

    Welcome to Mission...I mean Session Taco! Some oldies on the menu and some newbies on the menu!…read moreThis visit for lunch, tried a few newbies and they did not disappoint! Crab taquitos are creamy and rich. The crisp outside provides a good contrast to the filling. Very tasty! The chicken fajita quesadilla is bit more fajita than chicken, but seasoned well and balanced with the cheese. The Big A** Nacho, I swapped chicken for the Chorizo. It reminds you of a thin and crispy crust pizza. It's quite good with the beans, cheese, sour cream drizzle. It's big enough for 2 to share or 1 person to eat 1/2 and take some home. Session does a good job turning the orders around quickly for the lunch hour, but you might need 1hr and 15 min to safe. Enjoy!
