I was at the Soaring Eagle for a couple of days event. Tried this place and was sadly disappointed…read more I don't remember eating at a place in years that was this disappointing. Upon entering you can quickly see the furnishing have been there a while so they are definitely dated. Lots of locals out for dinner. A real homey place. Server was fairly prompt and courteous. I ordered their restaurant named dish which came out in a timely manner. The issue was when I dug into the food. I'm normally pretty easy to make happy with food but this dinner stands out. The refried beans were plain and one step thicker than soup. The rice, the rice I can't put my finger on it but like the beans I refused to eat more than two forks worth. OK, the burrito will be good. Well, guess what, the meat (burger) tasted like there was no seasoning at all. OK, the chips were good and the dipping salsa was passable. Would I go back? No way. The staff was friendly and no pressure or hassle ordering or delivering the food but the food was just plain bad.

Nahh - but I never know what size of burrito I am going to get. Is it going to be the size for a child menu and mostly tortilla....will I get a burrito that could be fired from a nuclear sub?

Also, bagged guac is fake - use real avocados and quit acting like you have Dior guacamole.
