    I really wanted to like Oscar's, especially after reading all the positive reviews on Yelp, but honestly, there was nothing authentic about it. This place felt more like a basic Tex-Mex spot than a true Mexican restaurant. To begin with , it doesn't showcase anything that match the more authentic Mexican spots in the area... no condiment or salsa bar, and the interior was just simple and didn't stand out. The food was okay at best, but the meat was poorly seasoned and was one dimensional. Overall, it just didn't feel like an authentic experience. The ambiance was fine, and while the tables were clean but not spotless. I'm giving three stars mainly for the friendly staff at the order kiosk, the robot server which was fun to watch and the somewhat fresh burrito (although the chips were stale). We ordered the salsa verde pork and carnitas burritos. The service was quick and we got our food in about five minutes. But the burrito was unimpressive. The rice was barely seasoned and overcooked, and the meat was sparse with just a few large chunks here and there. There was no sign of salsa verde in the pork burrito, and although the carnitas burrito was slightly better, both lacked refried beans and didn't taste authentic. The "hot" salsa wasn't spicy at all and the green avocado salsa tasted ok. Also, it's worth noting that the restaurant doesn't offer options like birria or al pastor, which nearby authentic spots usually have. Overall, I'd give them a 4/5 for the efforts taken but the overall experience was a 3/5 for me. I'll probably give it another try and hope it's better next time.

    Conveniently located in Olathe

    An impromptu date night led us to this hidden gem. Craving some authentic Mexican food we walked into Oscar's looking to order a very specific dish and my wife was pleasantly surprised with the build your own dish options right on the menu. Service was pretty quick and the food was not only fresh and authentic but delivered by a robot. You can order at your table via QR code or the counter. I had the taco salad with the medium avocado salsa. It tasted great and was a generous portion. Check it out next time you're craving a great taco, burrito or a custom Mexican dish.

    It has taken me too long to discover Oscar's great breakfast burritos. They are huge and reasonably priced, each filled with scrambled eggs, breakfast potatoes, and cheese. Meat choices vary from chorizo, bacon, sausage, and steak. Add refried beans for no charge. And the medium green salsa is good enough to drink, so have no shame and ask for extra. The regular menu is fine but nothing incredibly special, particularly when there are so many amazing authentic Mexican spots in Olathe. They have definitely shifted to more of a takeout spot, with very little ambiance or attention given to the interior, which doesn't bother me in the least. Just know some of the interior photos here on Yelp are outdated.

    I have been wanting to try this place so gave it a shot. Options to order at the table by scanning in the menu or you order on a screen at the front counter. It's like a more authentic version of chipotle. Order a burrito, picked chicken, charro beans and cheese. I didn't see a spot to choose sauce add on. It came with chips and a small side of sauce. The burrito was good but it could've been warmer. Charro beans were incredible and queso was good. Everything delivered by a robot from the kitchen. Sort of neat but made me think of Paulie's robot from Rocky IV. Good meal that I'll try again.

    Alright dug in a little bit, but Chicken Flautas
    Candice S.

    I don't normally write reviews for places that I DoorDash, because I can't give the full experience, but this order was so good I had to say something. I absolutely love the way that my food was packaged. I ordered the chicken flautas with refried beans and Spanish rice. I was craving flautas and I chose here because of the amount of customization you can do with the toppings. I am not a fan of sour cream and most places put it on as standard. I chose lettuce, pico, cheese, and then I added guacamole. Not only was I impressed with the packaging, but everything was delicious. This was by far the most flavorful Spanish rice I have had since moving to Kansas. I was hesitant by the refried beans, because they are almost a liquid consistency, but the flavor was there as well. These were my first flautas in years and I was pleasantly surprised. I will definitely be ordering from them again.

    Nothing authentic about it. Food portions were a lot smaller than a usual Mexican restaurant. Prices were high for what you got.

    Tacos don't just have to be a Tuesday thing and margaritas shouldn't be limited to happy hours…read more K Macho's serves up the TexMex pretty well and pretty consistently. Your bowl of chips is rarely empty for long (especially for a glutton like me) and meals are delivered hot & ready. It's a big space, and when the place is packed, there is a LOT of service traffic on the floor. Wait times are usually not bad and the tables turn quickly with all of the help happening. The food is good, maybe not great. But it's not far from great and if you ordered something that would be delivered hot, then you can be sure that it will be served VERY hot. A plate of carnitas runs about $16, comes with tortillas, and is served very hot. K Machos makes a sensational traditional carnitas plate, and this is one of those top shelf items to try. If you want a taco salad or standard TexMex plate, then you get the good level. K Machos has a great drink menu and great drink specials. Their house marg runs $10 for the big schooner, or you can get several varieties of fruit in a frozen margarita version. Mango marg, anyone? Service is great, location is great, food is pretty good overall, and the drinks are great. It's definitive worth the stop in Olathe.

    Chapala is about 8 miles from where I live and I've had the opportunity to eat here multiple times…read more I've had everything from the nachos to enchiladas, Speedy Gonzalez to quesadillas, burritos, tacos, and most everything else. And I don't make multiple return visits to restaurants where I don't enjoy the food and the service. The restaurant is tucked away down what appears to be an industrial street where you wouldn't expect to find a sit-down restaurant. Because of this you won't accidentally discover it while you're out on a Saturday afternoon drive. I'm certain the location hurts their business as it has other failed restaurants that have occupied the same space in the past. But if you go to the trouble of finding it, you'll be happy you did. There are a few "Mexican" restaurants in this area of town, but this is a "Tex-Mex" restaurant, which I prefer. I won't go into describing each individual item on the menu, I'll just say the food is solid Tex-Mex. I lived in Houston and San Antonio for a total of 10 years, so I know what Tex-Mex is supposed to taste like. Chapala could definitely hold their own in South Texas. I think you should give it a try.

While many items were ok and overall portion sizes were good, it lacked seasoning, especially the quesadilla. It was simply a tortilla with an underwhelming amount of cheese. Didn't even taste like the tortilla was heated up with any butter. Very bland. The tacos we ordered were ok but the shells reminded me of that from a Taco Bell taco kit almost. Sadly a soft option or corn option was not offered to us. Even though we dined around 1230, the restaurant was empty. Only one other table was occupied with guests. The hostess was even eating while working which didn't make for a very welcoming ambiance.

Inside, the space is airy and vibrant with great acoustics and a chill little bar area that sets the perfect casual vibe. We started strong with the drinks.

I finally settled on the Pollo Relleno, which came loaded with Mexican rice, refried beans, and a taco. My friend grabbed the tres crispy tacos paired with charro beans.

It was so good and perfectly balanced to not be so sweet. The waitress said that was due to them making their own blends. We eat here all the time.
