4 Best Mexican Restaurants near Cleora

“Decided to venture out of our comfort zone and try a new place on the island. For the prices, the quality doesn't match up. Super disappointed in the food, but the service and our waitress was absolutely amazing and so sweet. I paid $16 for two enchiladas, and beans and $15 or $16 for nachos that look like the poor man nachos I made back in the day. Wouldn't have minded pricing at all of quality matched.“

“I was in town visiting family at Grand Lake of The Cherokees and taking in the Bassmasters Classic when I discovered this place. It was a small cozy place and the service was just delightful. A great authentic Mexican restaurant and the quesadillas are my pick.“

“Amazing tasting Mexican food! Would highly recommend.“

“I only put I would recommend because of today visit. I have gone there for years and as a full time lake dweller now there are very few restaurants open on Sundays. Which is when us full timers like to go out to avoid the weekenders. Now, review: Place was not busy! Seated quickly! Wish our waitress was as efficient as she was friendly. If you can’t remember orders then write them down. Several things that I requested had to be asked for several times and some I never got, period. Drinks took forever and never did get the water we requested when we sat down. Finally after asking 1/2 way through our meal and asking again got 1 water. Drinks were both delicious👍🏻 UPSIDE‼️ It was supreme Sunday…. Supreme burrito was good and huge. Mine was not what I ordered. My Chile Relleno had ranchero sauce not white queso that I asked for and the pepper had no filling at all and was tiny. It was only edible because I ordered queso to start as an appetizer and put it on it. The chicken enchilada was awesome. The rice was awesome the beans were just beans. The guacamole I will say was fresh and probably the best I’ve had in a long time😋 I asked for hot salsa when we 1st sat down because their regular salsa has no spice at all. Which I understand some need that just plain stewed tomato salsa but didn’t get the hot salsa till I asked 2 more times. Ordered 1 more Margarita that someone I assumed from the bar delivered. By then we were ready to go and our waitress was nowhere to be found. I think she was helping to put together carry out orders. I think her mind was on something else but clearly not on our table. Overall not the worst but by far not the best food or service I have gotten there before! I still tipped over 20% because this just seemed to be an off day for them.“
