Delicious food! My husband and I shared the tamales with beef chili and hard shell beef tacos. The creamy jalapeno dip is amazing 😍

Fun Tex-Mex restaurant on the square in Bentonville with something for everyone. Vegan options include sweet potato tamales, chips, guacamole, a variety of salsas, and veggie fajitas. Several other options can be made vegan by leaving off the cheese.

Delicious chips and trio of salsas served alongside $5 margaritas during happy hour. Beef tacos were tasty as well as the sides included. Nice atmosphere, friendly servers and good experience.

I got the pickled chicken tacos with pinto beans and rice and a margarita. Everything was delicious! Would definitely recommend and return again.

Stopped in for lunch while visiting downtown Bentonville. We had the pickle fried chicken tacos, and they were excellent. Also got the chip & dip with three salsas. We found the grilled pineapple was the best.

I chose this place for my birthday dinner, turned the big 50. The atmosphere here is excellent in my opinion. From the giant, backlit marquee to the vintage bathroom signage indicating his and hers, this place will cheer you up. Bring your appetite, you'll want all the appetizers but save room for the main course! Tacos, tamales, whatever you choose I know you'll want to go back. I can't speak to the desert, will have to have desert first next time. The service was top notch, food came quickly even though they were busy. I highly recommend giving this restaurant a shot! Parking can be a bit of a challenge downtown Bentonville. Go on a week night!

First time we went, my friend and I we were told we couldn't be seated anywhere but the bar. Unsure why but whatever. Got our food, it was great. Service not so much, but food was good.
Went back today, told there was a wait-list to be seated, (quite literally open tables everywhere and no waiting customers) or sit at the bar, we sat at the bar, and had to go up and ask to order. Never offered refills, but when it was time to pay, he was right there to collect.. service was terrible, stuff was kinda tossed on the bar, server never checked on us, until we were done. Food was absolutely terrible.

Gave it a fair shot twice and was let down both times..

Our first visit. Parking can be problematic. There is a street level entrance, but no one greeted us, so we had to climb stairs to the host/ess station. Then back down steps to be seated. Inconvenient. We were seated at a small table where we had to squeeze into with diners on each side we could touch elbows with, making conversation difficult. Looking around there were plenty of empty booths and tables. So why seat us in a tight, occupied area? But, Karina is an outstanding server, enabling us to get past our negative first impression. Our nacho skillet was a unique presentation, tasty and generous but not generous with meat. The restaurant appears clean, it's airy and spacious. The best part was our excellent server!

Fajitas are where the value is at if you’re hungry. Only complaint is doesn’t come w rice n beans. Steak tacos were good. Was not cut up, was like biting into an actual steak. Sliced would be better tbh, but it was still good. Awesome salsas. The mango was so good as well as the others. Good quac and queso. Would go back!
