Chili Chile Relleno plate
Jeff R.

We've never been here before but have heard good things. Also some pretty nice reviews here on Yelp. Since we were nearby we decided to give it a go. So glad we did. We weren't thinking this would be a heavily leaning Mexican restaurant, but it is. There are many other choices though like burgers and chicken fried steak, my go to. First things first though. There is a nice sized parking lot outside that does not have cramped spacing. That was nice. It looks like an older neighborhood diner, not run down, just older. Inside was kept very clean and the staff seemed to always be wiping things down when not helping customers. My wife chose the chili relleno plate and I went for the chicken fried steak. You can learn a lot about a place based solely on the quality of this dish alone. Theirs is very, very good. Excellent meat without any 'chewies' you find at so many places. The gravy was spot on in quality and amount of sausage. Not overly salted. Just exactly perfect. My wife's dish was also equally enjoyed. High quality relleno with a tasty sauce and perfect cheesy stuffing. Overall this was a hit and we'll definitely be coming back to try other dishes if I can get away from ordering the CFS. That's going to be tough. Give them a go, I think you'll be glad you did.

Huckleberry Margarita

Last night my friends and I visited this establishment. We enjoyed all left extremely satisfied with our choice of restaurant. The margaritas were well made, chips were fresh, and the salsa had a nice flavor. The highlight though, definitely their Quesabirria Taco plate. They have the best Quesabirria tacos and their consume is perfect. Even their rice and beans have great flavor. One friend ordered a California Grilled Chicken wrap, which was huge. She said it was delicious and the fries that came with it were crispy and perfect. The service was quick and the restaurant was clean with large TV's to watch sports.

Margarita menu

I grew up in Otis orchards. This location used to be called the Burger Barn. It burnt down and was rebuilt and later was named the Otis grill. Unfortunately they could not keep it staffed and they had to sell. Murandos that was off of Sprague/bowdish area left their location and took over here. There are grill items still on the menu, but now combined it with Murando's menu (I'm probably spelling it wrong. My apologies). It's hard for me to wrap my head around the Burger Barn/ Otis grill now being a Mexican restaurant.. especially since the name really didn't change. I was able to sit where I wanted to per the hostesses instructions and she followed. The menu is pretty large. And I treated myself to a huckleberry. Margarita which had a nice tajin rim, and my husband got a few Coronas which came with a nice cold frosty pint glass. We had some chips and salsa which came automatically. However, whoever made the batch of salsa I think messed up. It was extremely salty and inedible. Which is sad because I usually go through several cups of salsa when I'm at Mexican restaurant. We ordered the nachos to share but we weren't super hungry and only got about halfway through. They were decent. The margarita prices were good and I felt a little buzzy for having just one. I'll definitely come back to try some more items and have more margaritas, and give their salsa one more shot.

We haven't been in this restaurant for several years. We read the reviews now that a change of ownership has occurred. On 01-31-2024 we decided to try this Mexican restaurant instead of driving to Liberty Lake. We were very pleased with the overall experience. Ordered 2 regular margaritas and surprisingly these margaritas didn't have a lot of "mix" in them compared to the Liberty Lake Mexican restaurant. That's a plus, plus! We enjoyed the chips, they were warm but the salsa is lacking. Too much liquid not enough of the other. Hopefully they will improve it. Dinner entrees had so much food, we both had to have a "to go" box. Husband had the Carne Asada plate which he said was very good. The pepper that came with his meal was spicy but we loved it! He ate most of his meal. I had the Quesabirria taco plate (3 tacos) which I've never had before. They are very filling and I had to bring 2 tacos home...can't wait for lunch. Overall, the experience and the food was great and we plan to make this our new Margarita Wednesday destination. Our hope is they improve the salsa! See ya next Wednesday!

Carne asada plate

First time at this place. We were a little lost when we walked in the door. We didn't know if we should wait to be seated or seat ourselves. They eventually seated us. We ordered the chicken enchilada plate and carne asada plate. Both dishes were VERY good!!! Meat was tender and flavorful. Our waiter was great. The atmosphere is positive and Everyone looked like they were enjoying themselves and margaritas at every table. We will be coming back!! My only suggestion is the name should be: The Otis Mexican Grill

Chilaquiles

Breakfast today. Had the chilaquiles and it was great. Wife had the sampler plate and it was good too. The service was wonderful and the food came out hot. Great flavor and very fresh. Going to be our new Sunday breakfast go to place

Chips and salsa are great and complimentary

Tacos are amazingly authentic. Service is friendly, and Margaritas are blended heaven. Chips and salsa hit the spot and they have several proteins to pick from for the tacos.

I really enjoyed my food when I came here. I was given a coupon for a free meal for my birthday, I…read morehad the white chicken enchiladas they were so so good I cleaned my whole plate. Very affordable as well. I will definitely be back!

UPDATE see my original review below. I just read through all…read morethe comments and actually saw some after I wrote my review saying the same thing customer saying the same thing about the same food and how is bland and it apparently this restaurant does nothing about these reviews and doesn't listen to us as customers. I have absolutely no confidence that this restaurant is gonna survive. I would bet you that they're operating on a negative profit margin every month right now. And even with that they just still don't get it that they have to change their food and up their game. It looks like what other people are saying on here is that their sauces are not authentically ground from the peppers and everything that normally people do when they make Mexican food. That the meat is horrible. That they are not seasoning it so whoever's doing the cooking obviously is not somebody that knows how to cook and taste their own food. How can you make chicken like that for a burrito for crying out loud this is all you do in life is put chicken and burritos and tacos but you don't ever taste the meat? You can't tell that it's like not juicy? It has no flavor? It taste like you froze it and then microwaved it or put it in a crockpot without flavor? I just don't get it. You can see my original review below. And just like I said before it looks like this restaurant does not ever read the reviews because what you will see is that this review of mine will be on here for years and they'll never be any response online openly from the manager to address this issue. I'm on a road trip from California so I have Mexican food all the time there and so I decided to have a chicken burrito from this place. I ordered takeout and if they said, do you want sour cream on it I said yes I just said go ahead and put everything on it. I just want a good chicken burrito so I got this chicken burrito inside of this package and the tortilla was soggy and it was not like a grilled tortilla like toasty. The chicken meat inside of it was absolutely dry, overcooked, and really bland. It almost tasted like somebody had thrown it in a crockpot for eight hours and left it cause it just soaked all the fat out of it. It wasn't tender or anything. I was strongly suggest that that would be a number one priority at this restaurant is to not serve that kind of chicken meat. It's not good in any way shape or form. The only kind of chicken meat you should be serving out that chicken in the burritos is fried grilled in your kitchen right before right when you make the burrito and then cut it up and put it in the burrito and it needs to be juicy and not overcooked which means that you cannot freeze the chicken. Now that I think about it, it taste like the chicken was previously frozen, which took some moisture out of it and then it was crockpot ted which took the rest of the fat out of it, and then they served it in the burrito. It failed in all the categories, and I don't understand that if somebody's gonna put this much money into a restaurant why they would serve something like that. On my road trip I actually had a burrito from that gas station called Maverick or Mavic. The burrito at that place was superior than the one I got from this place. It should not be that way and I'm not saying this to be mean I'm being very honest about it with a ton of experience growing up in California with Mexican food all the time. So what I'm saying is I also noticed that I pay a little over $15 for this burrito. Isn't this Montana? Why am I paying above California prices for this burrito? I get the same level of burrito and grilled meat flavorful and good for $13 and something change in California in an expensive city. So tonight, I was very disappointed. I got a burrito that had meat in it that was not prepared right that was bland in a soggy tortilla where it was like pulled chicken and it was barely edible. On top of everything I was overcharged. Let me think? In California people that would work in that restaurant would have medical benefits and get paid a minimum of $20 an hour. With that taking into account, the burrito is about $13.50 in California and it was prepared better. Is there some reason why this burrito was over $15? I was really shocked and I just don't understand it. I would never come back to this place again if I lived here. These are just my opinions and I'm being truthful and I'm not saying this. I'm not your competitor. I'm just somebody traveling through that has experiencing this type of food their whole life. There is much better out there and you gotta step up your game or you're gonna wind up going out of business like a lot of restaurants.
