    Steak salad
    Robert B.

    We always enjoy coming here for a relaxed dinner. Cashier took our order, but had some difficulty finding where different options were to ring them in. Food was good as usual and the interior is nice to sit and relax.

    Driving down Manchester I saw this place and loved the building's bright colors , so I decided to stop and I'm glad I did. I love Mexican food and it did not disappoint. Small private parking lot, but don't look down or you will miss the opening to get in. Indoor or outdoor seating which is always a plus is an option. Outdoor has plenty of seating that is covered or open and pretty spacious. Indoor was nice , spacious and clean. Staff were really nice and welcoming. I ordered the shrimp quesadillas and they were fresh, hot and cooked to order. Delicious and seasoned well. Wait time was not long so i decided to dine on the outdoor patio. Great music on the radio as well to listen to. Pricing reasonable. I will definitely come again .

    Poor excuse for nachos grande with steak

    Well....sh*t rolls downhill. I really hate to leave this review. But this has been about three years of the same stuff. This one picture will pretty much sum everything up. This is a $13 loaded nachos with steak. I have had four chips so far. I would venture a guest there's about 2 ounces of steak on here? Maybe 3 ounces? There's no cheese. There's very little guac. There's very little sour cream. I'm assuming the family turned this over to somebody else because otherwise I'm not really sure why I go here anymore. This is sad. And I have been waiting a long time to write this. Because we had issues when my son was born almost 4 years ago. Every time I order now I expect something to be wrong. And that is just not good. Please check out my reviews. If you are curious, I don't ever harp on a business. Because I worked in restaurants for a long time. And bars. And eventually, you just have to call a spade a spade. They have given up.

    Beef crispy taco was supposed to just have beef, cheese and lettuce and instead the beef was a soupy, chili-like mixture that had rice in it and tomatoes. Not what was advertised and pretty gross to be honest. Also, only two small sides of salsa in the drive thru for a $30 order of 4 tacos and a medium bag of chips is wild. Especially when you can go inside and help yourself to unlimited salsa at the counter. Doubt I'll be back.

    You know when you eat something super delicious and you think about it from time to time after? That's me with Nachomamas nachos. I don't know what it is, but they are absolutely delicious and they are so affordable. They're nothing super extensive or involved, which I think is why they're so good. There is beauty in simplicity! This visit was later in the evening and I was coming home from an event I was working. I wanted good food, I didn't want to door dash, and I didn't want something super expensive. Nacho mamas to the rescue. They have sit down dining, or they have a drive thru. I went through the drive through and ordered the steak nachos. I pulled up, ordered, paid, and waited for a little for them to be assembled. I got them home and everything was perfect. Gooey melted cheese, tender steak, fresh pico, sour cream, guac, and beans. It was perfect later in the evening meal and I'll definitely continue to visit!

    "Fajita taco". No cheese and a couple of onions. This taco had twice the meat as my other taco.

    I've been coming here since I was a teenager. Now close to 40, I've decided to call it quits. I write this review reluctantly, but maybe saying something will spur some change. Two stars might seem harsh for a place that still has decent food, but I feel it's warranted. I used to eat here - all the time. During Covid I think I ate here 3 time/ week (fresh margaritas from the drive thru? yes please). Over the last couple of years with orders being incorrect, prices increasing, wait times increasing, etc, my visits have become less frequent. In the last couple of months, my order has been incorrect 3/4 times in various ways. The food portions have been reduced and the prices have increased (dramatically). Last time I was there, I had to remind the lady at the drive thru to take my card and run it. Once I got home, my three taco platter only had two tacos and maybe 2-3 slices of chicken per taco (the picture was actually the "good taco"). Adding to the frustration, my "fajita tacos" only had a couple of onions (did they run out of bell peppers?). This seems to be the new norm. This is the second time in two months they've given me two tacos when I ordered and was charged for three (reading/counting error). Additionally, my daughter wanted chicken tamales and they gave her ground beef. Not a big deal, but when you have a two year old who wants chicken, they want chicken. I used to order the chicken nachos as my go to, but they started really skimping on the toppings/meat so I switched to the tacos. Anyway, I want to love this place again. The food still tastes good enough. Their restaurant is cool. The margaritas are surprisingly good. The salsa is good. I know running a restaurant isn't easy, but their quality control needs to be addressed, especially when charging these prices. I'm glad some people are still having good experiences here. Maybe they had enough margaritas to leave happy? Pros: food tastes good, good salsa, good margaritas, cool restaurant. Cons: quality control (incorrect orders, food doesn't look very good sometimes, lack of portion and toppings), price vs quality, wait times.

    I am a nacho connoisseur. I have lived by nacho mamas all my life and figured it's the time to try. It was a very solid plate of nachos. No complaints and the cheese/queso that was very good.

    Melted plate

    Pretty good food. Great spot with a very relaxing vibe I've been here many times. My favorite part is the sauces and salsas available at the counter for self serve. Love the new jalapeno one. Service was great! Only problem is that the styrofoam plate for my super Tex platter was slightly melted from the super hot food. Switching to paper plates would be great!

    Been here before but it's been quite awhile and I really didn't remember the menu. Best to look over the menu ahead of time, there's a lot going on. Took my wife here after a Cards game and she enjoyed it. She got the nachos and I got a chimi. The Chimi was amazing! They actually fried it correctly. The guacamole was amazing, and I really liked the chips. My wife said the nachos were good but for a super nachos (I think that was the name) it was kinda small. The restaurant inside is fun. A little loud but that's ok, it's a Mexican restaurant. My wife was frustrated with walking up and ordering because there was a line and it was kind of a pressure situation. Service was good, not really any table service, so nothing to really note about the service. The lady that got our order at the counter was really nice. So thats always good :) This one is a recommend just for the experience. If you like chimis this is a good one. It's normal burrito size.

My friend and I stopped here for a last minute drinks and dinner. We each had the house special, I think it was called the Cadillac margarita with salted rim, iced not frozen, and we got the jumbo. OMG I couldn't even finish the jumbo. It was very strong and big, had to take it home to try and finish it. A wait staff dropped off chips and salsa and the chips were just not that good. I asked my friend what she thought and she said the same thing I did. The salsa did help but if I opened my own Mexican place I would serve the best chips I could find. I know they're free but many places offer some kind of free snack (Helen's has popcorn, some places still offer salted peanuts...) and I think it should make one think the chips are good the food will be better. As I was drinking I wanted some food and we got two chicken burritos, they were large and very good!! They were 2 for $14 if that gives an idea on cost. While I live just a few minutes from here, I haven't seen enough in 2 visits to say I'll keep coming here for Mexican, there are many other places in South St Louis to try. Oh and I swear the bar "stools" are big enough for two people. I probably look comical on one as my friend and I may have been able to fit into one stool.
