Matador Ballard serves delicious Mexican cuisine and offers great happy hour deals. Their margaritas are a highlight, and the food is extremely tasty, although not entirely authentic. The restaurant can get loud due to its popularity, but the friendly service enhances the experience. Guests have noted that while the fajita flavor is awesome, the tortillas can sometimes be stale or tough. However, the restaurant is recognized for its good food and attentive service, making it a lively spot for dinner. Diners can enjoy fantastic tacos, especially the street tacos, and find the food a little bit cheaper after ten o'clock. The nachos were plenty and very good, and the chicken quesadilla was a nice surprise, especially as a happy hour item. Service is prompt, with staff reading minds and making guests feel taken care of, even during busy happy hour.
