The salsa is great… Good food… Highly recommended. You have to ask for the hot salsa.I had the Arose Con Pollo which isn’t on the menu but they made it for me… Excellent… Price is awesome…

I arrived at 1:15 pm on a Sunday. The parking lot was nearly full but people were exiting, most in church clothes. That was my question I picked the right place to eat. We are in Morrilton, so they do serve drinks. Interestingly the dining room is divided into dark and light seating areas. The bar is on the dark side. I chose the light. Later observation you have to request a seat in the dark.
As busy as they were I received prompt attention, there were still seats available and the waitress saw me using my camera to read the menu and graciously offered help or more time. The menu was extensive. I had been craving some good tamales so I decided to order a la carte. 3 tamales. Rice and beans. Backing up, they brought the chips and salsa at the same time as the menus, then my drink order, water, came with a lemon slice and a modest amount of ice so you actually got to drink some cold water.
The salsa was slightly spicier than usual far and served in a pitcher with a bowl. It was not hotter, just tastier. So I ordered salsa on the tamales rather than the queso.
Again service was fast considering the crowd. People kept coming in but at a slightly slower rate and dressed much more casually. Then I noticed the televisions on every wall. Lots of tennis, other sports and two programs I couldn’t identify.
The tamales were pulled a pulled beef and devious. The beans were refried with a little melted cheese on top, no particular flavor. The rice however was closer to the fried rice I had in Spain. Very tasty, again, not hot, just flavorful. I had to get a to-go box but I knew that was okay. 2/3 of the people leaving were carrying them.
Overall a very nice meal at a reasonable price. The atmosphere was happy, many families but the children were well behaved and enjoying their meals too. My biggest problem is how far they are from my home. I won’t be able to return often and work my way through the menu as suspect some of their patrons do.

We ordered Street tacos for 50 people to pick up and take to a party. There was enough food there for probably 100 people! But it wasn’t just the quantity we were impressed with, the carne asada and chicken were delicious!! For the price we paid, you can’t beat it!! Ortegas exceeded the assignment! You guys are amazing!!

Just WOW the staff are so freaking friendly and the food is wonderful as well. I do a lot of traveling and it’s hard to find a restaurant as good as this one. If I could give more stats I would. Prices are fair the atmosphere is friendly and colorful. Hot wonderful food, pleasant atmosphere, and wonderful people. 10/10❤️

Oct 2025 Edit:
We went inside for dinner. EMPTY restaurant. 11 waiters doing nothing. The ‘kid’ that sat us went literally to the 1st booth and threw our menus on table and walked off. We moved due to We didn’t like that seat. Waiter was very polite. I order red sauce on my burrito (after being asked red or cheese sauce). It came with cheese all over it. I can’t eat cheese, hince red sauce. I hailed a different waiter down and explained situation. He rudely took my plate away. A different waiter brought my plate back with red sauce. Almost hit me in the face with the ‘very hot plate’. Also very rude, slammed my plate down and left. My burrito was half the size from the original. The food is good. I just dont understand why they dont try to bring in more customers….Probably not returning.
Previous edit:
The portions are improving. Chicken nachos in photo was a reasonable amount. Tastes great.
The food is good. If I could change one thing, it would be the size of the take-out. This isn’t just since COVID so don’t think that. They have always had smaller portions on takeout than dine in.

I had the bean burrito with enchilada and rice. The rice was cooked perfectly, the enchilada was okay. The bean burrito had no substance it was more of a bean puree. But it tasted good. The wife had California special: bed of French fries, topped with grilled chicken, bacon bites, cheese dip, and shredded cheese, and she loved it. The bathrooms were clean and the staff was friendly.

Best Mexican food I have had in the US. Their red salsa is amazing, perfect consistency, and the chips are thin and crunchy. I had a meat and a chicken enchilada, both tasted great. Perfectly seasoned ground meat, tasted so good by itself. The pulled chicken was equally perfectly seasoned. I want to try more of their food.
